So Fake

were you ever told "If you have nothing nice to say then...." A lot of people like the show. You won't share a sad story on camera but come here to complain??

I have worked for corporations that I couldn't even tell you my boss's name not alone recognize what they looked like, disguise or not. And I have worked for some big ass corporations.

I ageee, and disagree with your post...
Knowing this show is set up, and I recall reading somewhere that other employees in the store are aware what show it is, the person they work with does not. I think it was an IaMA on Reddit with somebody that was on the show. But regardless, I sill tend to enjoy it (aside from the Armondo train wreck episode). The disguises are awful and don't seem well thought out. That should be red flag #1.
I am confident that so much is edited out that it makes it appear that the employees are spilling secrets to someone they only met an hour ago. I assume there were a number of hours filmed before they got to that point but we just don't see it. I'm. ok with that. I believe it's also been stated that the employees are screened, meaning the UCB knows who the target is going in but not necessarily each individual story details. I could be wrong on all of that though.
Without rewatching the episode for GiGis, here is what I recall. Regarding the employee with MS not showing symptoms...I believe she said that her onset of symptoms was a few years back and included losing the use of her arm. If she happens to have the relapsing/remitting type of MS it is not that uncommon for a person to have a flair, then be symptom free, sometimes for years. There are people who get diagnosed yet have no flairs for 20 years. Others haave flairs that are brought on by a number of factors such as stress and climate. Hopefully she will continue to be symptom free for a long time to come! (Just to add, I am no expert in regards to MS, but I do have it. Nothing she said was out of the ordinary).
The girl who tallked about having attempted suicide, if I recall, they did discuss her having scars on her arm/wrist and saying something to the effect of not minding if people saw them because there was a chance it may help people, even if it was just one person. I don't think they actually showed the scars on camera though.
The Montolongo guy had me speechless. I had never heard of him before and couldn't believe some of the things coming out of his mouth! That guy has tons of complaints against him on several sites such as pisssedconsumer dot com. I found it hard to believe people would put such faith in the man, who was so obviously a scam. It is probably a good idea that he travels around with a "seal trained" bodyguard! What a tool...

6 out of 7 dwarfs aren't happy

I have no doubt that the producers of the "fake" reality show that the bosses are taking part in are priming the pump by telling the employees that in order to get interesting video they need to talk about some personal issues "so that the viewers can connect with you".

In addition, I've become convinced that in preparing for these tapings, the UB producers are actively seeking employees who have sob stories to share. So I have no doubt that during the vetting process they're asking the HR people and other higher-ups which employees should be on the show. These aren't just random employees, they're specifically selected because of their backstories.

I used to work at a clinic and I knew several people whom had MS and no symptoms. It is wide ranging disease.

It is bizarre with the sob stories, but I don't think many people would know who their big boss is from seeing them. My current boss I would certainly know.. But past companies, like Blockbuster and MGM.. I honestly couldn't even tell you who was/is the CEO.
