Re: CenturyTel/Embarq INFO
Hahaha.. you should hear some of the names that the COO said she "Liked". But there's a 3rd party firm working on a new name for the company. |

| Well she didn't release any names from the 3rd party company making the name, this was just a discussion between her and employees, and she asked some employees to throw out some names that they had thought of. The meeting was a bit over a month ago so the names have escaped me but I didn't like them at all but she said they were great suggestions lol. If I can remember one of them.. it was CendaQ ... Cen for CenturyTel, Da for Data, and Q for EmbarQ. |

Well, I was gonna suggest "Bloody Big Telco That is Gonna Crush Things" but then I tried it a few times and decided that as I am getting older, I couldn't get it out during my phone greeting in one breath.
It's hell getting old.
So think of us poor phone people when you come up with the name, wouldja?  |
