Way OT: Mama's don't let your babies ...

... grow up to be anywhere near the advertising business.

And the people who are ostensibly on my end of things are actually slimier than most of the clients or the vendors ... and that ain't a easy standard to surpass.
I don't know whether it's harder on my stomach or my blood pressure, but it ain't healthy for either.

Gack, I don't even have words for how much disgust I have with the crappy people I deal with on a regular basis. Politicians are more trustworthy.

That is basically all, resume your normal programming now.

I am pretty sure my daughter hasn't even thought about that career path. She is thinking animal or space related at this point I think, her two biggest interests.

And here I was just getting ready to push her into advertising.

Makes me think of "Thank You for Smoking". I imagine that's pretty much what all advertisers are like. Even slimier version of salespeople.

SI
