I always hated the way the bible quotes came at such opportune times – along with the “find a way, make a way” speeches! Plus, if you can’t make an event due to church obligations, your priorities are questioned! Hello? Golden Rule?

I would like to comment that I feel the same way as Andrea. I joined MK on October 2007. I was excited in the beginning, but soon I realized our district director was seriously ill, and our “group” was “adopted” by another director who never even had the courtesy of approaching me EVER to get to know me or find out my goals or plans with the company. In her group, most women had her attitude of “High and Mighty” and every time I wanted to ask a question, I was signaled to “shhh” in other words completely ignored!!!! I recall the first time I joined, I could only purchase the starter kit and an order of 700 dollars. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works hard to make ends meet. I remember the “adoptive” director being upset because she wanted me to order 1800 or more. I this people really adhere to bible principles, they should know that God does not want His children to be in debt. Really; Most directors don’t care for your financial wellbeing nor your person, they only see you as a tool to make them wealthy without having to work as hard in finding contacts, etc. If you analyze the business, in the first place the ones earning the cadillac and all the recognition should be the independent consultants, they are the ones who do the hard work. To me God is ALWAYS first and FAMILY is second no matter what., in reality most directors don’t want to “adopt” consultants because it is of no benefit to them if they are from a different district. I truly am a Christian at heart and NOT A MARY KAY CHRISTIAN. I hate the way they present God as if He is some kind of “genie” or “wiz” who is at your feet to give you whatever YOU want. He IS and He IS a God of Love, and also a God who looks at the heart of those who proclaim His name, He blesses according to HIS will and not yours, beware of wanting to become rich overnight (he warns us) and my advice to you is…be careful who your riches come from. My dissappointment is great with the way Mary Kay business is carried on by many. I am stuck with all my products, finding it hard to sell due to high prices and little training. So Much for the great opportunity.
