Please don't eat the frisbee...

Monday, October 17, 2005
So I was at a benefit fair today in Minneapolis for Wells Fargo employees, oh sorry- "Team Members." As their chosen life insurance carrier, Minnesota Life sends a representative of the company to these fairs all across the country to answer questions, pass out plan info and hand out some trinket with the Minnesota Life name on it to clutter up homes of team members. The trinket this year- a floppy, squishy frisbee type thing called a high flyer. Most of the people who cruise through this array of tables occupied by insurance, dental and vision vendors are there for one reason and one reason only: free stuff. So one genius takes his hot pink frisbee with glee (a little too much glee, if you ask me) and returns to work. A little while later he's back at my booth, waiting in line to talk to me. And what does he ask me, you may wonder? Get this- "Is the frisbee edible?" IS THE FRISBEE EDIBLE?! No, Einstein. Please don't EAT the squishy siliconey object. Geesh! It's scary out there, I'll tell you what.
