Anything fun going on tonight? I have friends in town I’d love to take them salsa dancing / to see live music. Latin dancing / music preferred but open to anything 💃

It's freezing tonight bitter cold. I just ordered Chinese and I'm not sure if that was a shitty thing to do. I think they need to make money so if no one calls that wouldn't be good. I did tip well

Best wine app? Wanting to catalog the bottles I have, see stats, get notified when wine is coming up to drink (out of hold periods), etc.

Recommendation on foods in Paris please. TIA!

Did Eddie Van Halen come into your radar ? Personally I was never enamored by guitar virtuoso s and if I did Eric Johnson’s Cliffs of Dover is something I could listen to over and over again

Not legal-related but: thoughts on A Jazzman’s Blues? I loved it. Been a while since a movie has stayed on my mind long after it ended, like this one has. Shocking Tyler Perry wrote it. “Paper Airplanes” is a hauntingly beautiful song.

Okay ladies as society’s community with the best music taste...what are we all listening to atm 😌?

Advertising Week Question!
Any events this year? Last year we got to watch Alessia Cara w/o needing to have ticket for Ad Week. Is it worth going to? It’s kinda pricy, but I’m looking to network more

What is the average increment range in Lowe's India?

Can I ask for a slight increase ($5K) in salary if I already signed an offer letter? Their highest threshold was $5K more than what the offer was. If so, how do I go about it?

Hi guys 👋🏻
So I joined IBM 5 months back, was on bench for this long and got project just a week back.

My PSP and People Manager have been kind of lenient, cooperative and kind to me because I was never told I will be put in PIP, I have to enter project not matching my skillset etc etc.

Deloitte India or Publicis Sapient, which one should I choose. I have an offer with DI as senior consultant in consulting. Should I join DI or Publicis Sapient. Salary same

Is EPLI work truly unbearable or is it decent in moderation? Is it worth it to apply to a firm that prioritizes EPLI?

Do people generally work a full day on their last day of a job? My understanding was that day was for returning equipment/you didn’t do much

For those who were CTL or left without a job lined up due to burn-out: how long did it take you to find a job?

I truly will never get people who turn the AC on full blast but will be fully wrapped up in blankets and complain that they’re cold.

I’m turning 30 in a few months, and getting ready to move across the country to be closer to family and friends. Like many others, the last year has been the most challenging of my life. Any book suggestions that might be insightful in this pivotal chapter of my life?

Anyone work in alliance management? Would love to learn more about the function!

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

Do tech consultants make market rates? Maybe my perception is a bit warped because I’m getting paid 85k 3.5 YOE. Jumping to industry as a software engineer and will make 165k. Are consulting companies just shafting tech folks?

Skinny Jason Mamoa 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you all for the Super Bowl Bowl!

Google spot just killed me 😢

Smarht Parhk? Nice .

On another time, a younger me would have loved the Porsche Heist ad. Now, however, the concept just feels dated (and a bit lite for Porsche). Fun to shoot tho. Am I the only one?

Uh, Discover? ... “Hello”?

That snickers commercial was amazing so far my fav. We should feed the world a snickers

MARIA HILL TO THE RESCUE! (Avengers theme plays)

congratulations to the great state of kansas last night!!

CELEBRITIES ARE NOT A CONCEPT

Rocket Mortgage just won the bar. The civilian next to me said, “That might be the best commercial I’ve ever seen!”

And now...and ad for music

That was fun by Audi. Love the choice of song.

Not sure how much Hyundai spent on that Genesis spot, but I know it was far too much to tell the same old “young luxury disrupts the party of old luxury” story.

I’m beginning to think all the 2020 SB briefs started with... “we need a big personality to represent our brand.” Since when is celebrity a substitute for concept?🤔

Is Baby Nut cuter than the E-Trade talking babies?

New York Life. Beautiful.

BEST: Jeep
WORST: Michelob (wtf?)
MISSED OP: Olay

The only qualifier to becoming an industry legend should be whether or not you’ve worked with Sam Elliot. Nay, his mustache. Prove me wrong.

Seems like “the button” is back as an advertising device. Been absent for a while but coming back in force this year.
