Sorry, We’re Not Buying

Media Executive (ME) instructed a member of her staff (HS) to present a marketing proposal for a high-end automobile brand. In exchange for featuring the brand in its various magazines, ME requested for a car. HS did her part and delivered what was expected. However, the automobile company rejected the offer. ME got irked when she heard the explanation and rejection of HS. ME reprimanded HS and berated the staff for not doing the work properly.

Perhaps feeling slighted by the rejection, ME just wouldn't budge. She did the unexpected and decided to do the presentation herself and again, requested for the ex-deal. Sadly, the car company was firm in its decision and declined the offer the second time around. ME left very disappointed and embarrassed. As the head of the company, it is not in her job description to do what she did for she has a staff to take care of such matters. And yet, even she got rejected. Certainly, the act only made ME look cheap and desperate.

Well, at least, ME gave it a shot. However, getting mad at the staff was uncalled for. Did not ME realize that the automobile company might still be trying to re-establish itself after it closed shop some years ago? Hence, exchanging one of their cars for ad placements did not seem like a sound investment at that point.

Can you identify who ME is? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.
