I'm a whore!
I came to a realization about me, ohhhh... *looks at his watch* about 3 minues ago, and I guess I had to get it out of me.
I'm a whore.
Not just any whore either, but a corporate whore. A slogan throwing, product using, company paid whore. Ya know why?
Free stuff.
I guess it came after this seminar (2 actually) on Monster brand cables, which my place of employment will now be carrying. We got all this pithy stuff (for free mind you), some of it cool... some just, well... downright stupid and cheasy.
Now free stuff is cool, great even. Yet don't fall into corporate sleazedom as I have. Case in point, Monster branded License Plate frame thingee. It's cheasy, it's kinda stupid, looks neat though, yet... no one in their normally sane mind would ever put this on their car. I was once deadset against the sleaze I know am. Yes... I did place this on the car I use. I now advertise to the world that I'm cheaper and easier than a 10 cent hooker in Singapore.
I think it came from the fact, that albeit I did get the object of my downfall. I got a lot of other cool shit too. T-shirt (which I have worn), Polo Shirt (which I've worn as well), free cables, mouse pad... and that's just from this place!! We won't even go into the Verizon branded t-shirt, Verizon/Sprint/Vonage branded long-sleeve work shirt. (Nice, but no less sleazy) My Verizon swiss army knife, (which I do carry with me sometimes), Motorola keychain (in use) and fleece... and so on and so forth. I even carry around one of the pens with me just in case I need to sign shit... and I have an array, kinda like accessorizing...
God... shoot me now, before I get a disease or something...
