Another thing I don’t miss about LA

Posted on January 31, 2004 Written by Diane

Gotta admit that I haven’t missed having every telephone pole and traffic light pole covered with those ubiquitous “Work from home” and “You can lose weight — ask me how!” signs that are all the work of poor deluded Herbalife salesmen who are quite sure that they’re going to find the last people in the city who haven’t a)heard of Herbalife and b)tried it.

    They’re everywhere. If you haven’t seen them in the bay area, it’s because you aren’t looking hard enough.

    FWIW, Diane, I’m in the same part of the Bay Area as you are (I’ve been here over six years now), and I haven’t ever seen them either. Maybe we’re just in the “charmed” area.

    Thanks for the link. I’d seen the signs, but never realized that one ‘company’ was behind it all. Amazing.
