An Omnicom IPG merger does finally put my dream of a mega-holdco called Intercom within reach.

Last week, I mentioned that I needed to take an appointment (my therapy appointment) this Wednesday at noon. I also mentioned that this is a medical appointment, and I don’t feel comfortable moving the appointment. I just received an email that I need to be available. How can I stick to my boundary?

Those actively interviewing, where are you trying go?

Anyone wear open heart or skeleton watches? Post your pics or ones you’d like to own! (Maybe not everyone post a tourbillon)

One of the things that my ADD coach helped me with was realizing that I wasn’t prioritizing activities that help me feel recharged. Between work and home responsibilities, I was just burnt out and overwhelmed.

So now when I start to get burned out I focus on reducing auditory overwhelm, getting outside, listen to music, get comfortable, read a fun book, etc.

As we’re heading into the weekend, what are some things you do to recharge and give yourself a break?

CA shutting down prometric, just received an email that my December date is going to be canceled.

I have a hand full of k-5 students who have gone the first half of the school year without music because of remote learning. Our district is moving to 100% traditional teaching after the MLK holiday. Any suggestions for reintroducing concepts to the group of students that’ll be joining us f2f for music the first time this school year?

Any entertaining stories about opposing counsel just losing their mind on you in court or over the phone? How do you respond to opposing counsel who is being rude, unreasonable, or verbally abusive?

I have been working in SEA region last 4 years. I feel burned out. I have 10yoe, I have try to move to other country but I pretty much suck in LeetCode. I want to take some time off to unwind, finish some personal business, and really prepare for interviews. I would like to hear from you. Should I quit to my current manager(5th so far) or wait after mid year performance review, when a new boss will take over my team? I'm thinking on giving them 2 months notice period. By contract is 1.

Thanks

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.

Greetings from Madison, Wisconsin. I'm a reporter with more than 32 years of experience and I feel that, lately, local television news has been kind of dead, but I am pleased to fight for it from my local newspaper. Locals love to see someone from their own town succeeding or finding out something inspiring.

I am a firm believer that this will not change for a long time, local TV will continue to live as long as we stand for it.

Do LinkedIn skills endorsements mean anything? Has any recruiter said... "Whoa! She's got 47 people that think she's a great writer... we gotta get her in here!" ?

If you could change one thing about the ad agency culture, what would it be?

Any other writers hate writing spots for public radio? It's like navigating through a minefield until you put out the most bland, uninspiring few lines you've ever written in your life 😑

I got the job. That is all.

Have you ever seen a client fired in mid-production?

Are there any agencies where creatives actually have good work-life balance in LA, SF or anywhere else for that matter? Like no weekends or no working more than a 40-50hr week? Or do I have to go in house for this? Or do I have to leave advertising altogether?

I feel like I’m either getting burnt out by work or trying to heal myself from it. There’s never much time for real life and I don’t want to be on my death bed reminiscing like, “Wow, I made some cool ads.” Nothing scares me more.

Just got laid off do I need cobra? I plan to hopefully have a job soon

I really need to know. Does anyone genuinely care about their jobs anymore? Money aside.

People didn’t hate advertising when it was about creativity and not technology. Just saying.

How long did you stay at your first job?
And what made you change places?

Which portable standing desk converters do people have and recommend. I live in a tiny NYC apartment so use my dining table as the office during the day but need to put it away at night.

Long shot here, but does anyone have a google sheet / excel document with a list of all potential Advertising Award Show submissions that you would be able to share? Including deadlines for 2021/2022?

do you cover your tattoos for client meetings? i already had tattoos but were easy to hide on camera, i now have a pretty full sleeve (all visible on camera) and not sure if i should cover them (wearing long sleeve top or cardigan) or just live my best life?

I promise you, whatever you have to tell me as I sit down with my lunch is not as important as eating my lunch.

Funny to see how men are trying to post shit about DMA...

Drinking Soylent for multiple meals a day so I don't have to waste time getting/making/eating food. Let's see how this goes...

This in their 30's, how much money do you have saved? Did you start your own family? What's your age, and do you own or rent your place? Btw I'm in my mid 20s.
