Script 1
We are starting to test large-scale improvements to team perks. We haven't created a new system, but rather developed the existing one. Let's call it a serious evolution.
Now, each team member has just six slots for main perks. There is good news for crew members who fulfill several roles at once. It is a "bonus perk" system. If a crew member has a secondary qualification, it will be trained alongside the major one. Bonus perks do not increase the total training time, no matter how many there are.
Script 2
Losing a child is terrifying.
A nightmare many people face every day in our country
To help locate a child, it takes a company that is everywhere.
Introducing: Lost Child Awareness
Our company, the biggest out of home media company here…
Turned its billboards into a real-time tool for searching for lost children.
With the support of advertisers, every single ad stops, and the search starts.
Lost Child Awareness.
When a child is lost, there's nothing more important to be advertised.
