I got a WeWork mask in a FedEx package about a year ago. Such a weird promotion. I have no idea how they got my info as I've never used WeWork or any other coworking space. But I did take a class in one. Maybe that was it.


lol the shipping cost more than the mask


But it got me to open the package! And then free advertising when I wore the mask (which I never did).

Clearly a company with more money to burn than they know what to do with.

Like when Boston Market expanded everywhere - including neighborhoods in SF that had zero other chain restaurants/fast food places. The hubris.
