After I was laid off, an account person from my former agency connected me with a friend who ended up offering me a job 🙌🏻
Would it be appropriate to send a thank you gift? And if so, what? In the past, I’ve sent wine but I don’t know him super well + the world feels less boozy these days. Although he is a boomer if that helps.

A thank you card and a gift card to a coffee shop/restaurant is always nice if you don't want to go the ways of alcohol.

Hey everyone! I’m struggling to decide whether I should pursue a full time MBA or a Part Time MBA. Truly, what scares me about a full time one is the fact that I won’t work for two years. I know it’s a big investment and I’ll be rewarded for ir later on, but the thought of it still scares me. I would love to get someone’s thoughts on this! Is the experience very different? Will I be exhausted if I do the part time? Is there something I’m not considering when it comes to the Full Time?

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking. I wanted to share it with a mentee and can’t track it down. It was a simple layout: grid of images w/headline naming the idea … Sound familiar?
