My employer is running ads in selected markets during the Super Bowl tomorrow. I was thinking about the last time I worked for a company that advertised on TV. The first thing that entered my mind was when I was with AT&T in the 1990s. Then I remembered that my last employer was Macy’s.

To be fair, I can also say “Yksi kahvi, kiitos” which means “One coffee, please.”
