The Apprentice/Gillette Comment

ORIGINALLY POSTED ON THE EIGHTH EDITION OF "THE BEAU ZONE" ON THE HARD ROCK HEROES WEBSITE FROM MAY TO NOVEMBER 2006.

Didn't it seem strange in that episode of The Apprentice a few weeks ago where the teams were selling Gillette Fusion in New York's Times Square that we didn't see any Gillette executives? That's because Gillette is in the process of being purchased by Proctor & Gamble, so they probably didn't want their suits on camera because there was no guarantee the people that would be on camera would still have a job by the time that show was aired. Isn't it ironic, then, that the winning team got to go to that agency and help down-and-out unemployed business people? Hey, maybe that agency will be helping fired former Gillette executives this summer once P & G completes their takeover! Maybe Gillettte execs watched that show and said, "That's where I'll go after P & G fires me!"
