Imagine you’re sitting at a table in a typical comedy club. It’s late in the evening. The comics cavort, the waitresses refill cocktails, and the crowd roars louder. After all, they came here to have fun, to drink, and to laugh.
Now imagine you’re seated in a folding chair at a corporate sales conference, squinting in the mid-morning light. Your company logo’d pullover is itchy. As the CEO drones on, your mind wanders to all the other things you’d rather be doing.
Scanning the day’s agenda to see who’s up next, you notice: “Greg Schwem. Corporate Comedian.”
Huh?
Twenty minutes later, everyone’s rolling in the aisles. This guy is funny.
