Marketing guys are busy selling something or the others always. We all detest sales calls, there is no time to waste. I guess we are pretty happy with our lives and don’t need unwanted freebies coming our way. The other day, I saw some guys pulling out some business cards out of their wallets at lightning speed and whip out some for me to throw away. What kind of audacity do these people have to believe that we actually are waiting to be in possession of their color business cards? Are they out of their minds? A white one is bad enough, but what I couldn’t possibly want to keep is a bright pink business card in my very own wallet, could I? Even if it did have some value to me, I would be too embarrassed to keep it.

At a poker table the other day, I wanted to play some cards and four out of the nine people ended up giving me their cards. Those cards weren’t remotely related to what I did for a living and I never wanted to see them again. All I needed from them was their money, but they gave them out anyways, like a piece of gum.
