As a bean counter, I had to take a marketing course.
My lasting memory of that course was the professor fawning over a set of Beats headphones, not because of any tangible value, but because of the marketing behind them
I worked in a marketing shop before. Just an unimaginable amount of people who lack any creative drive whatsoever, think they're the mythological version of Steve Jobs and have themselves in a black turtleneck as their teams display picture. Like chill bro, your whole job is changing the tresholds in those annoying automated emails twice a month.
Holy shit they actually did that?
Edit holy shit they actually did that.
They've been doing it!
For like five years at least!
Shut up, five years and nobody questions it?
Everyone made fun of it!
But they just keep doing it!
I stg every marketing dept has a "get dunked on on twitter and tiktok" division now.
