Welcome to corporate America.  Fortunate are the few who have a passion for the way they make a living.

I can't imagine being so miserable at work that it was a task.  That would suck.

You can't imagine having a job you don't like?

I wouldn't work for a company that didn't excite me.  Makes me feel sorry for them

Not sure where you work, but I hate my job and do not trust my employer.  Great coworkers and team, but the corporate dickbags offsite really have fucked this place up.

Golden handcuffs though.

The latest episode of the carbide podcast features Bobby Menne.  He's ridden all the big 3 OEMs...At one point he talks about just how good the Polaris marketing team is. He basically says it was frustrating for him as a racer, Polaris constantly making changes, pushing out new stuff, and marketing the hell out of anything and everything obviously sells sleds. Textron/Cat has a long way to go to even be close.

Which is funny because isn't Donna Beadle the cat marketing lady?  The same Donna Beadle who used to be in charge of marketing at polaris?

If the marketing team at cat comes across this I’d like to make it really simple for them-

Z 400 (blast)

ZL 600-858 (Atac, big gauge etc)

ZR 600-858 (ifp)

ZR 600-858 LE (AC5)

ZR 600-858 Sno Pro (new rr moniker)

ZR 600 CCE/RXC (race program)

That would be better.  Except for the ZL should have the cheapest shock package which would be the ifp.

I hope people at cat have better things to do than perusing this cesspool.

Here is my hairbrained idea.

Z = Blast

ZL = trail oriented sled, 2 packages - ZL (ACT IFP), ZL ATAC (upgraded shocks, ES, etc.)

ZR = Fox Zero Pro (base), AC5 (RR)

ZR Sno Pro = Snox sled

ZR RXC = XC sled

That's pretty good except the z/blast.  I'm partial to the Z.  Blast could be called lynx maybe.  The z was originally more sporty than the zl, it has a tether!

Hey dipshit, do you not get news articles in buttfuck MN? Cat gave up rights to the Lynx name when they got sued for patent infringement by Ski-doo. Part of the settlement for Cat to continue to sell sleds in Canada was BRP brought LYNX into the North American market.

So call it the links.  Problem solved.

Pointing out bad information so people don’t get misinformed by an overly sensitive dandy.

Offering a suggestion for a model name is not bad information or informing anyone of anything. 

Would you like to try again?

That article is from 2019, and states that she works at Swanson Russell.

I hit her her linked in page, because I don't remember ever meeting her.  Most of the marketing folks have been coming to the shows.  It says she still does, but also makes it sound like she's moved on.

Check out the budget she had with poo

We worked with Swanson Russell at last year's photo shoot.  The actual photographers came from a couple of different firms, nobody was from Parascope.

Wonder how many retards will have their mirrors, plug in heated visor, and a race number on there.
