progressive commercial

[Voodoo Child]

i was watching a progressive car insurance commercial and the guy on it said they spend thousands of hours a week on giving you w/e

um hey buddy there are 168 hours in a week. and 744 hours in a 31 day month!

now there are 8760 hours in a year, but i know he said week. i know it.

how dumb are they

 

[~K-Pow~]

they may mean many different people working at it... but it does sound kinda farfetched.

Most people don't think into it that much, so they might've used it to get the point through.

i understand waht they are saying. but...they are dumb. do the math

whats really interesting is the "ticker" ... thats what they spend "thousands of hours per week" on... when in reality, all they have to do is get information from their competitors ( using a query ) and then display the results of the query, and then add their quote, and bingo, done. ( all in fifteen seconds or less - excluding the first initial programming of the query, and the gathering of initial data for the program. )
