Episode Details

Cisco and Sysco, two giants with eerily similar names, are accidentally connected in more ways than one—trucks deliver food to Cisco offices, Sysco buys Cisco tech, and employees constantly confuse each other. A funny LinkedIn post by Fran Katsoudas from Cisco meeting Aayush Bhatnagar from Sysco sparked a viral flood of stories from employees who’ve swapped identities, flirted with the wrong company, or even switched jobs between them.
