Could a Company Have a More Awesome Mascot Than a Monkey With a Jetpack?

rsz_3189_36bad24383b92d643b0b06bb34457308I’d never heard of Fort Worth-based WDS Logistics until yesterday afternoon, when I saw one of its trucks rolling through Carrollton. The truck caught my eye because of the company’s distinctive mascot, a monkey with a jetpack. (The truck also triggered a debate with my 5-year-old son, who was equally intrigued but insisted that we were looking at a bear with a jetpack.) I’m still not entirely sure what this company does, but I think I’m going to order myself a T-shirt bearing the catchphrase “Because nothing says service like a monkey with a jetpack.”
