Accompany Changes its Name

from the Who-cares dept

Accompany changed its name to Mobshop.com. Wow. That's exciting. The only thing that comes to mind when I hear their new name is the Mafia. I'm sure this new name will help them sell many more products.

    this has got to be due to the complex that they've got over their name.. Someone from Accompany called me once.. here's how to conversation went:

    Me: Hello?
    Them: Hi this is (I don't remember her name) from Accompany.
    Me: Ok. Hi.
    Them: That's Accompany. "A-C-C-O-M.."
    Me (interrupting): Yah.. I know.. Accompany.
    Them: Not as in "A Company", Accompany.. one word.
    Me:: I get it! I get it! (Note: I knew what she was saying from the first "Accompany")
    Them: Oh. Ok, lots of people get confused when I tell them I'm from Accompany.
    Me: Yah, I'll bet...

    Phew... I think Jim Rose hit it on the head when he explained that "The name Accompany needs about a two-minute explanation,".
