Really bad marketing idea

[NovaMob03]

This is my daughter, who works for a local cellular company. Not only does she have to wear this 'uniform' at their office, but she's also required to wear it while making outside sales calls to hand out their swag. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Other than what I first thought, what does that mean? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Did anyone tell that marketing genius what the "other" meaning of that phrase is? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Thanks Tommy...she's a sweetheart and is usually all smiles
Her company unlocks or flashes the phone of a customer that's currently with another cellular co. That way they can switch their service, but keep their exhisting phone.
A brief letter to the mgr solved the problem. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif

Time to go see a lawyer that specializes in sexual harassment and abusive work environment law. Her employer is forcing her to wear that shirt that they know will result in rude and degrading treatment. What the hell were they thinking??? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif All kidding aside, this is a sexual harassment lawyer's fantasy case.

(Sorry, it's the lawyer in me...plus I have a daughter and I would be having a field day with this issue!) http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Pretty lady Jude. Protect her as long as you can.

I work with marketing agencys fairly regularly and sometimes they get a little crazy. Hope things worked out for the best.

Kinda makes ya wonder what people are thinking, huh? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Speaking of beads, we canoed a local river last weekend (Spring River, Mammoth Spring, AR) and I'd heard the last few years how wild the out of towners had gotten on the river (heard afterwards it was rated pretty high on some Girls Gone Wild list)...anyway, it was a Saturday, and it was NUTS...college kids from all over the country, vacationers from everywhere, all acting like idiots...you couldn't hardly traverse the river because of so many rafts/canoes/kayaks. Anyway, seems they've taken up the *bead* tradition from Mardi Gras, so all day we got to here guys yelling at the girls about taking their tops off...that wasn't the surprising part...the surprising part were the KIDS with the parents that had beads to hand out?! Made me wanna grab the parents, shake them, and ask 'em "what're you thinking!"...and folks wonder why kids are like they are today?! We used to go the river a bunch...not so much any more, and *rarely* with the kids...:(
