A Morning Hangover Public Service Announcement

Hello Morning Hangover fans,


How about that ride in?

This is Matt with The Morning Hangover radio show. I’m here to bring you a very important Public Service Announcement.

Each day millions of people are overworked and underpaid. They must work long grueling hours, sometimes running on no more than five hours of sleep.

But nobody is overworked more than spokespersons for major corporations.

The Geicko Gecko. Flo, the Progressive Auto girl. And the bags for Southwest Airlines. These are just a few who are overworked and underpaid.

This is becoming an epidemic. And if we don’t do something fast, these people and things we’ve come to love, will soon be extinct.

Records obtained by The Morning Hangover show that the Geicko Gecko worked up to 20 hour days in 2009, working no less than a 13 hours in a given day. At night he was forced to sleep in a cage with a heat lamp and under a rock with holes and no pillow or blanket, and water that had been standing over a week.

Flo, the Progressive Auto girl, came in a close second behind the Geicko Gecko. Records show she worked up to 18 hours a day and had no less than a 12 hour day. At 4 a.m. each morning she would be forced awake in her 7x7 cell and endure six grueling hours of make-up and hairstyling to turn her into someone she isn’t.

Records also show that Flo was injected with unknown quantities of speed to give her her perky personality.
And all the while the make-up, hairstyling and drugs made her smoking hot, the long-lasting effects could be deadly. And we all know there’s no coming back from death.

And let’s not forget about the poor, mistreated bags used by the evil Southwest Airlines Corporation to promote “bags fly free.” Although, yes, bags may fly free, the treatment the bags receive is brutal and unfair. They are left in the bottom of airplanes where it is cold, cramped, noisy, and they are stacked on top of each other in awkward positions that can have major effects on their health when they become older.

Let’s do our part Morning Hangover fans. Let these greedy corporations know that we will no longer stand for this. When you see this abuse, turn off their ads, don’t buy their products, and let your local congressman know that you will not stand for this anymore!

Together we can make a difference.

This has been a Public Service Announcement brought to you by The Morning Hangover.
