Pure Weight Loss News and Gossip.

Ladies let me start off by saying I was hired as a center manager based on my experience at both 2 medical weight loss centers where I gave speeders away like candy. to a more secular approach with Jenny Craig. I am in the same boat as all of you. I only got to work for this lovely company for 2 months. what a nightmare. my divisional Rocky told me once "you jenny craig people come in here and always look around like a deer in headlights for the first few weeks and then get into the swing of things"!! that's because we (former jenny workers) have never seen such a prehistoric and out dated way of tracking purchases,weeks, product ect. what a joke. The bars are great, but not a necessity. they can easily forget to eat them or hord them in their purse. at jenny when someone came in I know they were going to spend at least $75.00 for their meals a week. if they missed their meals their missing a meal!!!! SO rarely clients would hord those. and they pay weekly. and that my friends is why Jenny Craig will remain a profitable respectable company for years to come. you don't see jenny in rip off report.com. or any other negative blog. my counselor just called(the one that stayed) me today to tell me she is swamped with oz's. I can't go in. first of all I won't get payed. I don't know if these clients are going to get squat. what is the point. all of you left in centers should not care either. corp. has left you with this mess. "i do it for the clients" hey brownie points for that. I love the clients to and wish them the best. but it also was the clients in the first place across the country who were not giving any referals and coming in three times a week not buying a god damn thing that got us into this mess. maybe thats the corporate in me. but that's how i feel. take care for now.

Police arrest us??What kind of response is that? You dont even make any sense.I have a feeling you may have a real hard time finding a new job-However, I am sure you will blame the Companies you interview with for not hiring you, right?? Certaintly wouldnt have anything to do with yourself!

Cindy Wallace in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania said: whatever, I'm done with you.

To all of those out there looking for new jobs, better things are out there. And you'll feel better working for a company with intergrity and morals. Good luck to you and Merry Christmas!

We all now have alot of experience and the company was hard on us. For some of us it made the best at what we were and I will never forget that I will miss my former employees and clients but not the company. As for vk (victim killer) he has addresses in dublin, ca. freemont, ca. marco island, fl. ambler, pa. Who knows where he is now. All I know he hiding, probably will do another name change, and do some different hair coloring and probably some laser surgery to change his appearance and identity until he has to go to court for all this mess. LOL VK NOT U NEED TO BE SCROOGED LIKE YOU SCREWED ALOT OF INNOCENT PEOPLE... WHAT ALL I KNOW I CAN WALK THE STREETS AND STILL SEE MY VISION IN THE MIRROR CAN YOU VAMPIRE???

loyal employee in Massachusetts said: you are so right!!

I think all that I have read here thus far is BS... can we all not just get along here as adults and move on do something constrctive like take action towards the company start a web sight and file a petition to sue for lost wages... this is what I want to hear ACTION..... Let's take actions!!!!

constructive

Girls.. and Guys.. we all act as if we are lonely and jobless!!! I have to take my almost "jobless" butt to the center and give the client's their product (yeah right)...

AND THE GOOD NEWS... ANYONE WANTING TO SELL ON EBAY (FOR YOUR NEXT JOB) ALL PRODUCT IS NOW 60% OFF!!!!

IT IS NOT PRIVATE. ITS NOT LIKE I HAVE IT IN MY BACK POCKET. IT IS ALL ON THE INTERNET AND IT IS "PUBLIC" YOU OBVIOUSLY NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT, BUT THAT MUST BE HARD WORKING FOR A COMPANY THAT DIDNT DO THINGS BY THE BOOK. WHY DO YOU COME TO THIS SITE. IT IS FOR EMPLOYEES AND CLIENTS THAT ARE UPSET. GO MAKE YOUR OWN FORUM FOR LOYAL EMPLOYEES, OH IM SORRY NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE IT WOULD JUST BE YOU AND KAREN2112. SO SAD!!

To all the employees and ex-employees of Pure this is the only way we talk and get our feelings out go head keep speaking your mind get it all out!!! XOXOXO we all need that right now or at least for alcohol.

Rob ... how's the hangover? Hope you took the booze from VK's bar before you left (along with the paper clips). Don't expect to get your last check or expenses paid until you return those paper clips! Hahahahaha! So, were any deals signed in TX? I hear Nick, EB, and CB are starting a new company with TX as the first market. It's all speculation, but what inside info do you have? What's VK going to do with all the multi-year leases he has?

Good morning folks. Does everyone have some Christmas cheer in their coffee?

Private Private in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania said: Julie... I give you must props. You are a "real" person. My hat goes off to you. I knew it all along that corporate was blaming the business going under on the staff in center. The way we were talked to was not acceptable. You may ask why I stayed... well been here three years. I was hear when we were thriving. Making "MAD" money. I really, honest and true, thought things would pick up once 2008 came around. Guess we will never know. Oh and Holly... she is real. That is her name and she is with Pittsburgh... works for PH.

Thanks. Just trying to keep it real.

geegee in San Bernardino, California said: Good morning folks. Does everyone have some Christmas cheer in their coffee?

I do. I must have been in some time warp. Christmas Eve is on MONDAY. It's Saturday. I kept thinking it was another week away. Hello malls, WalMart, Target, Best Buy. You'll be seeing a lot of me and my credit cards today!!!! Hope my bank doesn't freak out with the sudden activity. : )

Julie you still interest me. i think i finally figured out who you are but i dont want to say to hurt your identity.

what happened to the dietitians??? were they let go also?? what really happened to hal, was he fired due to the sexual harrasement lawsuits?

Hey Julie, The hangover is good I used the old butter on ur forehead trick and no hangover(Family Secret) Try it it works. Oh I have some inside info, i def know some things, 1. VK goes comando (dont ask it was late i had a few drinks dont want to get all into it now) 2. CB is really a man, 3. Im pretty sure they had all this planned for years since the start to do all this, then close down and open up dog grooming shops all over the country. But dont quote me on this, I was on the lower chain. But im no dummy I paid attention, they cant hide anything from me.

he probably goes comando for "easy access."

YO DOWNERS - U R blaming the victims. HOW DARE YOU say we (clients) got U into this mess. That would be your greedy VK. I personally spent over $1500 just to join, & hundreds more on "VIP$49" (what a con) "Internet$90", bars, pills & other crap. Yes, I lost the weight & my counselors were wonderful, but under so much pressure to sell sell sell. For the most part they succeeded so don't blame us if you could not sell. Get another type of job b/c you will not succeed in sales if you blame the buyers. (PS call me - "Miss paying off credit cards in 2008" - thanks to LA/Pure Weight Loss LOL but at least I am thin!)

Clients PLEASE get a copy of your contract/ enrollment agreement!
