I have been looking for a new job as of late. And I found an incredibly misleading ad on Craigslist that seemed too good to be true. It was for an apprenticeship at a rapidly expanding business? That payed $500 a week. I called, learned it was called Fox Valley Distributing, and set up an interview. And set about trying to find information about online. And found nearly nothing other that it was linked in directories to vacuum cleaners.
Would I join the ranks of those who sell Kirby vacuums door to door? Desperately trying to give my sales pitch, in front of people who just wanted me to demonstrate their floors being cleaned for free?
I went in for the interview in a depressing office building that smelled faintly of cigarettes. There three middle aged men in the foyer were filling out tedious looking booklets. I signed in and explained that on some days I wouldn't have a car all day. I was then told that all the positions required continuous use of a car. After I was told to leave, I asked what they did there to which the receptionist replied thats none of your business.

Does anyone know what they do? It seems like a scam, maybe they count on your relatives buying vacuums.
