MYOB commercial

There’s an ad that’s been showing on television recently for the MYOB accounting software packages.

It has a man staring confused at a heap of invoices posted on a wall - which is fine enough.

It then cuts to the man sitting down in front of his computer with a cup of coffee - which also seems fine enough.

If you look at the computer screen though; what’s there? A pie chart. A non-labeled, 3-dimensional pie chart. What’s he going to do with it? Send it to the tax office?

Reminds me of a management inspiration-type video I was shown at some crap uni job I was doing. At the end, the camera pans back on the career go-getters enjoying some coffee at a cafe somewhere. The guy obviously had nothing to do with his hands, as he added sugar to his mug. Then more sugar. Then more sugar. FIVE SUGARS LATER… and he stirs that sugar in, and drinks it.

The things actors will do for a buck, eh?

Imagine having five sugars in one coffee! What sort of SICK INDIVIDUAL has five sugars? Or even maybe six sugars in a large coffee!? That is some fucked up shit right there. I hate sugar. I would never have any sugar in anything. Certainly not five or six of ‘em per coffee. No way.

(hopes no one notices the lady protesting too much)
