The Statue of Liberty, Firemen, and...

oil change guys.

I'm sure you may have thought this would be a political post, but it's not.

It is a message to companies around the world--or, more specifically, in my traveling area here in Austin. Why oh why do you make employees stand on the road in a statue of liberty costume, or dressed as a fireman, or holding an oil change sign. It's hot. They look ridiculous. Just because they are waving at me I am not more inclined to buy insurance through you, eat your sandwich, or get my oil changed.

Instead I just shake my head in dismay, wave, and say a thank you that I do not have to do that.
