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.
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.
