Chuck at the Work at Home Business Opportunities Blog maybe onto something:
When I read this Dilbert comic strip a few days ago, it sounded remarkably like many of the
“work at home� job postings I see in Monster, etc. that are really work at home business opportunities
where YOU have to pay.It made me wonder… Is Dilbert doing MLM these days?
“The job doesn’t have a base salary…
“You’ll pay us $1,000 per month and work from home….
“If you make any money for us, we’ll give you 10%…
“You’re not allowed to have business cards, and you can’t use our name…�
So Dilbert works in the corporate office of the MLM… ok, I can buy that. Does the company googlebomb their detractors out of Google’s results?

This makes me sound like a total geek, but I read Dilbert everyday.
Themes run in Dilbert on a weekly basis, with Sunday being non-related (usually) to the week’s theme. The theme of that week was Wally going to find another job, and involved him going to a number of interviews. The MLM isn’t at Dilbert’s company, it’s just one of the interviews Wally ended up on :)

Yes Peter I agree. I was speaking “toungue in cheek” and thought that would be obvious?
Wally’s new opportunity sounds remarkably like many home business opportunities don’t you think?
