Verizon Visits Adrants Office

You just never know when you’re going to run into a Verizon Street Team. While busy trying to get back into the swing of things today, we noticed several red-shirted types walking on the sidewalk outside our “office.” We’re like “Oh wait, we write about adverting and it’s happening right in front of our eyes.”

So we grabbed the trusty camera and headed out to the sidewalk. After listening to the obligatory FiOS pitch, we informed the pleasant gentleman we wouldn’t be in town much longer and wouldn’t need Verizon’s services…except, of course for our phone which…we won’t need much longer either since we’re getting an iPhone and *have* to switch to AT&T. That is until Verizon supports the phone and we immediately switch back.

Wow, all that verbiage just to wrap around a picture of a Verizon Street Team. At least they didn’t have a Verizon Dumb Dad characature lurking about trying to explain how FiOS can help with this cool new thing called the internet.

People who build wealth without anyone noticing usually aren’t doing anything dramatic, they’ve just replaced three ordinary decisions with automatic ones: retirement contributions that come out before a paycheck is seen, a savings rate that rises quietly with every raise, and a lifestyle that stays flat while income doesn’t
