Anyone else feel like nothing you do is ever good enough for your partner?

‘‘Tis the season for “‘Tis the season...” headlines. (I’ve seen 2 so far this week.)

Advertising copywriters, how do you work with an editor? I’ve got one on a website project I’m working on now but have never worked with one before. They’re recommending changes I think are completely stupid. Is this common? When an editor suggests edits, is it normal to have to rewrite whole sections?

Does anyone want to hangout 🤨

Would Deloitte hire me back after being fired a few years ago? Was going through family trouble at the time and had a manager who was a terror. Different city, position, and role

Hi there! I was just laid off this morning as a recruiting coordinator. I’ve had my eye on being a project coordinator for some time and I’d love to break into the field. I’ve applied to a few dozen positions in the past few weeks and haven’t heard back from anyone. Does anyone have any tips on finding a role or ways to develop skills to be a more attractive candidate?

Hi Folks,

Newbie here. I know the theory (took a lot of fin classes in bs - I can build an iron condor in excel, lol at the names), but have never traded an option before. Cont.

Hi all,

Anyone from PayU ?
Please ping or DM, have some questions.

TIA 🙂

As a new joiner in April, how many PTO do we get? I heard there’s a recent policy to increase to 20?

I’m new on the creative side and still trying to get my footing for my creative process. I went to a conference where a guy said that he challenges himself to come up with 50 ideas a week. Any tips?

Got fired today. All my above the line work got positive nods. My CD was overly picky about every word in my email blasts and collateral. I’m sure that’s what did it. Luckily I have a produced radio spot, another on the way, and tv spot being shot this month. Any advice?

Does being invited to be a judge at AICP mean anything? Should you feel honored? It seems like they have the philosophy of the more judges the merrier.

Is a role really fully remote if they expect you to fly across the county to the corp headquarters once a quarter? Would you negotiate that expectation if you want a fully remote role?

If you were a junior creative with some experiences in big network agencies, what would you choose between these two :

A - Big network agency, working only on one account but doing potentially award winning work. Very ambitious and talented team.

B - New unknown agency with a small network backup but several accounts, competing for new clients and the will to win awards too. Two creative teams for now but lots of ambition and possibly more growth and potential to evolve as a junior creative.

I am on 5 projects right now all due within the next week-3 weeks. I feel like I’m drowning and might quit if I reach a breaking point, what should I do? Only work on the projects worth a shit? Blow off first round check ins to work on stuff that’s due?

Feeling burned out, anxious, and uncreative. But need to concept some big ideas this week. Any advice on refreshing your brain and outlook? Any creative resources you look to when you’re brain dead?

I joined an indie agency in NYC a few months ago. Nice and talented people, but their creative work is not outstanding. My copy partner and I felt like we could help them push the envelope, but even tho we try, they still like to play it safe... They “get” the ideas, but aren't willing to take risks. It all starts with the owners and more senior leadership... Any advice on how to motivate them without looking cocky or like we don’t appreciate their work?

A job I’m applying for asks for non-ad writing samples. I have a personal blog that has *cough, cough* personal stories. Dare I share that? I like the writing but it’s a little NSFW.

Has anyone worked for any awesome startups? I’ve been approached by several regarding full-time opportunities. An early career negative experience has made me hesitant, gun shy, skeptical. Would you say they are better/worse than corporate in-house, agency?

Brought into a project right before production. A lot of hoops to jump, was the Art Director. If I put it on my site, I should clearly credit who conceptualized it, and that I came on for execution?

My old AD partner put a project in their book that they barely worked on (with me) before they left the agency. They replaced some of the copy with their own words and there are grammar errors...

How do you deal with a boss who contradicts a majority of your decisions or directions for the team.

Asking for a friend.

I would be embarrassed to work for Facebook or Amazon right now.

Alex Bogusky is indisputably the reigning creative director of the decade in 2010. I’m struggling to think of someone else worthy in 2020. Who you think dominated 2001-2018 so far?

Freelancing for the first time. How do you count your hours? For example, if there’s a coffee bar, do I need to subtract time waiting in line? How intense are hourly timesheets in your experience.

Oh, the joy of Creative Directors who don’t give actual feedback and can’t give straight answers to a question.

Yes, hello? Why am I Mr. Sparkle?

How hard is it to go from art to copy and keep somewhere near the same pay?

What do you do when your partner isn’t really around and you have to do work remotely most of the time? It’s taking it’s toll of me because it’s hard to explain things when they are not next to me.
