Advertising sales director fucking nails LinkedIn comment

STAMFORD, CT — Mark McGregor, an advertising executive with Pushpin Media, absolutely fucking nailed his comment on a LinkedIn post earlier this week. “It was exhilarating,” McGregor said in a phone interview. “I was just sitting there scrolling through my LinkedIn feed looking for sales leads and inspirational business quotes and there it was taunting me.” The post, provided by UK-based staffing firm Skyex Resourcing, asked LinkedIn users to name a country without the letter A in its name. McGregor could not recall exactly how long it took him to figure out a name. “I kept going through so many, China, Russia, Columbia, Belarus, and I was like there is no country without an A! But then it totally hit me! Mexico! Mexico doesn’t have an A in it! I felt such a rush as a I typed it in and slammed the return key. It was way better than getting an Outperform on my performance review!” McGregor yelled. When asked if any of the previous 34,000 comments may have provided inspiration, McGregor denied it saying, “Nah man, that shit was all me. I crushed it.”

When reached for comment, head of marketing operations for Skyex, Richard Dunlass, expressed confusion over the posting. “What’s this now? We posted this stupid image? It must be that bloody social media consultant I keep telling Felix to fire. Fuck.”
