Ford shoots for the sky

A friend just sent me this internal memo to all Ford employees, urging them to watch out for "Upcoming Ford Vehicle Integrations in Your Favorite TV Shows!"

If you enjoyed our April 24th episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition... you won't want to miss all of the exciting, new, high-visibility product integrations we have planned through the second quarter. These vehicle integrations into highly rated TV shows will help us to create a more meaningful connection with our consumers, and even change a few lives along the way.

For example?

American Idol -- Wednesdays Through 5/25, 9-9:30pm EST, Fox
Each Wednesday during the season, the show integrates a fun, energetic music video featuring remaining American Idol contestants singing and interacting with Ford vehicles!

Why do I get the feeling that after sending out this memo, the woman who wrote it went home and cried?

Why would you think that a drone who wrote this would have the self-awareness of her actions to go home and cry afterwards? This makes no sense!

Anyone that relentlessly cheery is crying on the inside
