After 18 months I'm working in person with clients today. Not my idea, this job booked 4 weeks ago, and I think next time I'm gonna push back. I probably won't feel comfortable until my kids are vaccinated at the very least.

I’ve done only one in-person session and it was in May prior to delta taking off. They required everyone in the room to be vaxxed and rapid tested us. I felt really safe. But, I just got another request for a session (different place and not sure if they were going to take those precautions) and I said I wasn’t comfortable.

Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?

I’m sober curious. I’m also about to help a new non-alcoholic spirit company with their launch.
I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office. We have an open office plan and before we wfh FT I would save all my work for my telework days bc I can’t get shit done in the office. I’m having major anxiety about them making this decision. I know I’m not alone that people don’t want to return to the office. My ADHD and the open office just makes working from the office a nightmare and I’m feeling really nervous and kind of resentful.

How much does a post house typically charge an advertising client for editing in NYC? Whether that’s hourly, daily, etc.

What would you do in this situation? I signed a schedule A for one weeks work at Company A for $600 per day and then company B offered me 2 weeks work at $800 per day.

Does anyone include a bit on invoices like "Accounts not paid within terms are subject to a .75% monthly (9% annual) finance charge" or something like that?

Tangentially, has anyone had an invoice with 30-day terms kicked back for revisions because the client's terms are longer, or do they just ignore what you've stipulated?

What’s everyone working on these days? Anything fun?

What’s the highest day rate you’ve heard of an editor charging? I just found out what somebody is charging and it made my jaw drop.
