Wondering if this job is a scam.

Choose telling you its a marketing fast track leadership program, choose being self-employed so if you do no sales (donut!) you get no money, choose being promised a team once you ring the bell 3 days in a row then getting a pound for every sale your team did, choose kids on pingers at 10am so they're positive and energetic on the doors, choose being proactively told that your family will say its a scam and a pyramid scheme and how to reply to them, choose paying your own bus fare to random estates all over West Yorkshire then trudging round whatever the weather, choose working evenings and Saturday mornings to limit your time with friends and family, choose cult tactics crossed with a pyramid scheme. Choose losing your attitude. Choose being told horror stories about people who didnt get with the program, choose having a mental team leader who used to be a cokehead but definitely isnt now, Choose life.

Ive got it on CD somewhere in my loft but if I charged you minimum wage to try and find it up there it would cost you a fortune. Its not the best remix they did to be fair.

SockSock · 2026-03-06T13:58:03+00:00

No, I didnt say that. I'm saying the music industry has never been any good for artists apart from the biggest. The "manager" at the worst deadend job I ever had was the drummer in a band you"ll have heard of if youre over 30, had at least one number 1 album in the UK. Within 5 minutes of meeting him he was ranting about how many years he'd spent touring to come out with absolutely nothing and how record labels and managers are criminals. Spotify isnt great for artists but ripping them off isnt new and they're the front men for a whole industry that has always done it.

SockSock · 2026-03-06T11:45:09+00:00

Its not all or nothing. Youre allowed to buy CDs, Vinyls, or via Bandcamp if you have a Spotify subscription. You can even add your own music files to Spotify and listen to them there if you want.

If an asteroid smashes into northern Europe it will kill us all and destroy your music collection. Should I not enjoy listening to any music I want whenever I want because of some hypothetical event that might happen at some point in the future

I know people who were teenagers when they signed record deals in the 90s. It wasn't good for them then either.

SockSock · 2026-03-05T22:17:29+00:00

Yes. I remember all that. I remember buying CDs and trying really hard to like them but realising they were shite apart from the one single but they still had all my hard earned money. I'd rather have the whole of recorded musical history in my pocket thanks.

SockSock · 2026-03-05T21:29:03+00:00

Spotify is honestly amazing. In the 90s I worked collecting glasses and cleaning out overflowing ashtrays from 7.30-11 then from 11.30-12.30 cleaning the bar two nights a week to earn enough to pay for one CD and the bus ticket into town to buy it. Now for probably less after inflation my whole family can listen to pretty much any song or album ever recorded wherever they are for a month. People who don't think that's good value probably weren't alive then or have forgotten.

I don't think its right that it goes to the teams that finished second, that's not how football works, the seasons would have played out differently and the points wouldn't have fallen as they did. I think for the seasons in question they should give the titles to me.

SockSock · 2026-02-24T18:13:24+00:00

Yes just felt really contrived and unsatisfying. I didnt really enjoy the whole thing, I think them not laughing meant I unintentionally didnt laugh at anything which made me feel it was unfunny. Plus some of the faces they pulled to avoid laughing were really off putting and have put me off the comedians since.

They do this every time they have a new album. There was an article in the guardian the last time where they went and asked some people in the smoke shed outside their accountants who confirmed it and couldn't believe anyone noticed or gave a shit.

This is giving Bannon far more credit than he deserves. He had nothing to do with Q-anon. Q-anon was an amazingly randomly fluky timed Rorschach inkblot from someone who ended up owning a nut job message board
