On the flipside it is that same inflation thanks to the fed that has had the markets growing by a wild amount, and why its easier than ever.

2 to 4% inflation is good for the economy, if we get more than that for a prolonged period of time then we have issues.

That’s true, but it also means we have to cut back when times are good, and that never happens. So we just do this awesome trillion dollar spiral

Look around at all the goods and services you purchase on a day to day basis. I’ve noticed significant price increases over the last year from restaurants, contractors, home goods, groceries, etc. Will be surprised if it’s 2%.

Don’t tag Accenture, we all got 1 week of our salary as an extra bonus last week. We doing better on the inflation front compared to you all :-)

1 week bonus is much less than inflation and isn’t part of salary going forward so not even close to equivalent to a cola bump

Hi Editors!
What did your transition from AE to editor look like?

5 months ago I joined an advertising post house as a full-time AE. Through the support of a lead editor at the company I found my way into making cuts for the company’s most prestigious client. At this point, I’ve been the sole editor of one global campaign and a co-editor of another, in addition to cutting many social media videos. It’s only 5 months but I can’t help feel that my title doesn’t reflect the work I actually do.
