    That's cool I was not making a bash at BK I was just stating a comment to a comment made about people being shady and taking referrals , recruits etc .. So I took that to mean 1. Is it hype ( I dont think so ) but when that comment was stated you gotta ask 2. Is it a recruiting competition ? ( again I don't think so ) That was my basis

    Good deal and they are easy to talk to. I talked to David early this morning and he said he thought there were going to be 15 people in orientation this week, but didn't know if that was the actual head count.

    Congrats BK on keeping this tread going.

    I just join TTR today, but I've followed you for about 8 months, and its refreshing to see the facts, and not the whining I see on many other threads. Good stuff.

    I understand that you weren't bashing BK, but if it was a referral competition who cares. Marine, don't get pulled in to a "shady" conspiracy theory by the few who wish to pollute an otherwise great tread. .... and Semper Fi

    IP, your absolutely correct. If a company gives you tools to enhance your business and you don't use them, then shame on you! The referral program is one of those tools. BK gets referrels from people as a thanks for what he does here. They didn't have to mention him when they signed on.

    If I was out east/midwest I'd give BK my referral in a heart beat. If anyone knows of a company out west that sounds as good as ACT, please let me know.
     
    BigKid2 Thanks this.

    I didn't think you were bashing anyone at all. In fact, your question was very fair, very understandable and very good. I had similar questions at first too. I haven't been aboard very long yet, but I can see that everything is exactly as I anticipated it to be. Maybe better.

    Semper Fi.

    Delivered in Edwardsville,Ks. Loaded in Sedalia,Mo going to Nashville,Tn then I headed for time off for almost 2 weeks. Going to be spending 10 days in Las Vegas playing poker and drinking ridiculous amounts of adult beverages.

    Yea we have 15 in our orientation, one guy had to leave to see a doctor but he'll be back another time. Orientation seems real laid back. thinking i made a good choice by coming here
