My electric company puts out ads showing their employees going to work. That was literally the commercial I just saw for my electric company and then they show their logo in the corner.

What is the purpose of this? It’s not like they have a competitor and this ad might make me switch back to them or stay with them.

So what’s the point in making these ads?
