I’m not Comcastic
The other day I went to my local liquor store to get my fix. As I was checking out the guy behind the counter asked if I was still at Comcast. I’ve had this discussion many times before and it goes something like this:
Liquor guy: Do you still work at Comcast?
Alex: No, I have never worked there, I work for…
Liquor guy: Oh, what do you know about DVRs?
Alex: Not much, I don’t have one.
Liquor guy: Well I’m trying to blah, blah, blah…
Alex: Hmm, try blah, blah, blah…
Liquor guy: Ok see you later.
Alex: Cya.
Since this has happened numerous times before I decided to play along. “No” I say “I’m at … now”. “Oh” he says “What do they do?” “Make enterprise software” I respond. “Wow, better than Comcast, huh?” he declares. “Yep” I remark as I smile and walk out the door.
