So, you want to be in Marketing, eh?
Well, this is where business professionalism meets fun and games!
Marketing is basically the wild frontier where serious business goals crash headfirst into fun, chaos, and the occasional “Is this too weird?” idea. It’s the only place you can talk about revenue projections one minute and aggressively smack-talk the roles of side dishes the next. Sure, data drives the decisions—but vibes, memes, and gut feelings are absolutely riding shotgun.
But that’s the magic: take a little fun, mix it with some strategy, and boom—suddenly you’ve convinced people to buy things they didn’t know they needed. Marketing: where chaos and cleverness hold hands and skip.
An actual conversation had on Teams across the company:
JA: Let the games begin!
JA: The Great Pie Debate: Sweet Potato vs Pumpkin
Learn how sweet potato pie has been carrying the weight of dessert tables on its caramel-colored shoulders for generations — and nobody talks about it enough.
JS: Nice.
CS: You’ve almost convinced me to give sweet potato pie a try, even though I’ve never liked anything with sweet potato in it!
AH: Almost!
CS: I’m not going to run out and buy it, but if it’s on the table tomorrow, I’ll give it a try.
CS: I don’t like pumpkin either though, so there’s that
JA: sweet potatoes are great, and great for you. high in fiber, vitamin A & C and potassium. naturally sweet. good for eye and gut heath. and if you hit it with organic cinnamon, grass fed butter and celtic salt – you’ve got a super health food in every forkful!!
❤️
CW: Do you own stock in sweet potatoes?
JA: sort of … in my backyard
AH: Don’t forget to use your essential oils with it, too.
JA: yes, certainly. certain oils go very well with sweet potato … a couple drops of clove would be dandy!!
❤️
JZC: there is also a group of people that don’t like either, orrrrr pie in general.
JS: Yes, the world is full of idiots. 😂
AH: Those people are called communists, Jackie. 😂
JZC: wooooooah…I meaan a REAL key lime pie is great, everything else is meh.
JC: Are you saying that People who hate pie also dont like going into the office. The venn diagram is just a circle?
JC: I should also confess that I am in another group that prefers to let their pastries cool to room temp before consuming…with the ONE exception that is a fresh, hot Krispy Kreme donut off the conveyor belt.
AH: Well, you can’t go wrong with a fresh Krispy Kreme!
BA: Jamon, you and are I more alike than I knew! Sweet Potato pie, clove oil, I use a drop of lemon essential oil in my tuna salad, all the things!
BA: There are also the people in the world who would grab salty/savory treats over any sort of sweet treat any day. If dessert was banned, I wouldn’t cry.
JC: Im in that boat too
BA: Duh, carbs, John!
JC: Savory can have carbs- just sayin’
WD: I’m in the “I’ll have one of everything to start” boat
AH: Except deviled eggs. Those are just nasty!
JZC: I will NEVER leave a real sorbet unordered…but agreed beth, I wouldnt be mad if heavy desserts werent a thing…now if HARIBO gummy bears or Sour Patch Straws were banned, I would most definitely cry.
JC: You mean the sugar free bears by chance?
JZC: absolutely not…trust that i’m earning my diabetic status, genetics are only a small reason
WD: Wilford Brimley would like to have a word
JA: @BA you lost me at tuna salad … egg salad all day.
JA: and yes, I am NOT a sweets guys at all. my dessert is more beef!
JA: deviled eggs are my jam!
❤️
JC: I was really asking if anyone had read any online reviews of sugar free haribo bears
JC: They are…. something Fake sugars have carbs too bro
WD: You mean about the …. uh… repercussions?
JC: Yes
JC: I wouldnt eat the things
JC: Couldn’t care less about fake sugar and carbs
JS: Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
