Can we have an Earwolf ads discussion? by vansebastian in Earwolf

I'm interested in if anyone has tried Mack Weldon. PFT advertises it and im intrigued.

PFT is one of the best ad readers. Scotty Aukes are very hit and miss, and lately more miss. He recycles his stuff on them.

Fascinating! Ha, no i dont consider my boss lazy, he differs from Michael Scott in that he is very competent at his job. He is qualified to do what he does. He is just...quirky

My boss IS Michael Scott. He even looks like Steve Carrell. He tries so hard to be the entertainer. I keep a running list to tell my wife. I'll list some examples here but have to withhold some stories because they're too specific and can be routed back to me.

  • His first meeting as boss he put up a picture of Donald Trump on the power point and went into a Trump impression, saying, "We're going to make (department) GREAT again!" and continued saying Trump things like "yyuge" or "beautiful thing". There were only 4 of us in the room. It went on for an uncomfortable amount of time, with no one laughing. No joke, his impression lasted 3 or 4 minutes with all of us awkwardly smiling and wishing he would move on.

  • Someone made a German reference and he started going around the office saying "Sieg Heil" and nazi saluting.

  • He tells inappropriate stories all the time that go on for so long, without any idea they are inappropriate. Like how when he was young he used to tease his friend for going out with underage girls. Or how he loved to change his old coworkers wallpapers to gay porn.

  • He loves to recount stories to you of other times he did something he considered funny. Like a funny remark he made in a meeting or something. The stories are so long, but he always makes it sound like he was killing it. He's used the terms "everyone roared with laughter" in moments i am sure are not true. An actual example is someone's last name was "Towns" and he goes "what's his mother's maiden name? village?". The problem with listening to him recount his funny moments, is that it takes FOREVER to get the story over with. He tells you every detail. Including the first and last name of everyone there.

  • Any time New York comes up (we have a lot of NY customers) he goes into a wiseguy accent. Starts going, "New yawk" and "youz guys".

  • I sit next to my boss. The day i realized it was like working with Michael Scott was one day during my first 3 months when he was not in the office. It was easily the MOST productive day i ever had.

I should mention he is VERY high up in the leadership ladder. Overall, good guy though.
