@fcb peeps: Who is the head creative at FCB Global? Is it Fred Levron or Susan Credle? Every piece of work that comes out of the agency, Fred immediately posts everywhere as his. But isn’t Susan Credle the worldwide chief creative officer? Who really runs the show?

I have a friend who just started a new job-went from a big ad agency to a small start up. The boss at the new job wants to create the company website to show generic work. No actual clients, just work with made up company names. They have many clients that they work with-but won’t show them online. I have never heard of this? Why would someone do that? Isn’t it counterproductive to show fake companies and work? How can they discourage their boss that’s not a good idea without offending them?

Busy season never seems to end. Question, am I burned out or is this normal? I was very stressed during busy season until now. I sort of feel a calm sense of not caring anymore. We have extended our busy season until 5/15, but I really just don’t feel like I care...
