Ill-conceived logo time: Who here would use a snail for a trucking company
Edited on Thu Jun-02-05 09:02 AM by Richardo
These guys and gals would.

All for the sake of a visual pun, which is really pretty gutsy, but can't be that good for business (When it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight - think of the trucks with the snail on the side!) :eyes:

Or stupidity.

Thank goodness it isn't my call.

Edit: Can they haul large loads of salt? That's what I want to know... :evilgrin:

5. One of our vendors
(I work for a hardware store, btw) is called "Tortoise Fasteners". On all their paperwork and billing, they have their company motto: "We Move Slowly".

Seriously, do they think that this is an endorsement of their company?

7. They're counting on a lot of french cuisine loving Houstonians.
Good luck with that.

8. Lived next door to an electrical outfit in Nevada named "CR Drake"
their logo was a Drake getting struck by a bolt of electricity - didn't seem like a very confidence inspiring logo to me.
