The other day I went on a job interview at Shane Company. I realized that Tom Shane is kind of a genius. I had never actually BEEN to a Shane Company store, but I have sure been aware of them forever. KFOG used to preface every Shane ad with a clip of a guy saying "It's that man again!". We all know that geeky voice, that ridiculous circular grammar ("give her a gift for which she will forever be grateful for" kind of thing). If those spots had been spoken by someone with a smooth radio voice, they would probably have been completely forgotten in moments. Anyway, the store was lovely, they have nice jewelry, and I'm sure they hated me. If I work there I will have to quash my personality and wear suits. Sorry, gang, I guess you won't have a friend in the diamond business.
