The Minutiae of an Airline Merger

Before the merger, Delta used to cut its limes in 10 slices while Northwest cut them 16 ways. The lime debate was even mentioned at a meeting attended by Mr. Anderson, the chief executive, who was told it saved Northwest about $500,000 a year. In the end, Delta stuck with its 10 slices. But the airline also realized that it had been loading more limes on its flights than it needed. So it is now carrying fewer limes.

…This about sums it up.

hey, Subway marketing department.

Don’t send a team of 20-somethings dressed in swanky clothing into a marketing firm’s office and expect us to get excited because they’re yapping, “It’s Jared’s birthday!! And we just opened a new store nearby! Sign up for free food for a year! You guys like free food, right?!”

We will judge. We will look up his real birthday and discover it’s in December, not April. You will get blank stares.

Does this look like a college campus to you? 

Twister”? “Whisper”? …What was that thing with the thoughts, again?
