Last night I touched a pink cadillac. I know, I know. Try to keep your jealousy to a minimum.
Last night I went to my friend's Mary Kay party. She's a brand new consultant, but had the party at her director's house(the one with the pink cadillac). I totally thought I was safe from the whole shpiel about joining or buying since I used to sell MK in college. I was pretty sure that there was a "only once" rule or something. Turns out there's not! So I got that little pep talk last night. I will say that I really enjoyed the microdermabrasion set. My skin did feel smoother, and I really liked the 'night' moisturizer. I felt super-moisturized and I'm always struggling with that. Anyway.
Here's my problem with going to any home sales party: I'm excitable. Easily excitable. And I oooh and aaah over everything. (I tried to play it down yesterday, and my friend thought I was unhappy, because I wasn't my usual oohy aahy self.) So anytime I go to a 'party' I get the whole "but you liked it so much. you'd be so good at this, you're so excited about the product." I never have the heart to say "I'm easily impressed and I do this everywhere I go. Don't get all excited."
I wonder how other people deal with it, because I never hear other people being harrassed--maybe that is too strong a word--by consultants to join their ranks.
Not to say that I felt all that pressured last night. I will say that was the least pressure I've felt, so that was nice, but then again, it may have been due to my calm demeanor last night...which frankly bored even me.
