A Quill Corporation Press Release titled "There Are No More Lucy Carmichaels in Today's Offices" stated that the business professionals of today are nothing like the character Lucille Ball played on "The Lucy Show" from 1962-1968. Quill Corporation wrote:

Lucille Ball might have been the star in office of the 1960s, but today's real office stars are the trained professionals who are the backbone of the successful office.

I guess no one at Quill got the memo that "The Lucy Show" wasn't a reality show!
