How do they answer the phone?
This is the reason Enco changed it's name to Exxon when it went international many years ago. Enco was some sort of expletive in either Chinese or Japanese, so they researched until they found a totally benign word, EXXON. It means absolutely nothing in any language!

P.s. To everyone else, How can you tell that a picture has been Photoshopped? I must be blind, but I can't find evidence to prove otherwise.

Well, the enco word sounds very close to a different word in Japanese that is slang for sh*t. Not sure if this is the reason why they changed their name or not. Maybe Takashi does know.
Any of our Chinese members know if enco means anything bad in Chinese??
