A new recruiting video from Minneapolis ad agency Fallon doubles as a piece of sly political commentary with the presidential election just days away.
The video, posted on YouTube on Thursday, touts as Fallon's main selling point its close proximity to Canada -- "safe, politically stable Canada."
That makes Fallon the ideal workplace for someone who wants to leave the country in a hurry, the video says. And why would that be? "Just in case things don't go your way on Tuesday," the agency explained in a Twitter post.
The video, which features Fallon creative director Charlie Wolff, says every new hire "gets their very own bugout bag, just in case."
"Apply now," the video says, "before it's too late."
