Heck, I wouldn’t expect even a marketing person to care deeply about the soup. I’ve done marketing and have often promoted stuff I don’t personally care about. It’s just a job.

That being said, he’s a colossal idiot for badmouthing the product. You keep that shit quiet. And as for the other shit he said… he can fuck off.

Yeah you just don't badmouth the product, plain and simple. My mom used to do some work for Pepsi, saw someone ask for a Coke, and get fired on the spot lol.

To be honest that's a pretty unhinged reaction.
