David Ogilvy walked out and saw a homeless man and gave him a new cardboard sign that simply said, “phones about to die. send nudes."

Ogilvy? Then he saw the homeless man and told him he was going to put 10 teams on winning a lion about his plight, and then spent 50,000 sending those teams to Cannes to get their trophy while the homeless man dies in a shelter.

Hi Sharks 🦈,

Need some suggestions: My current company is on a layoff spree and 2 rounds are already done and I can foresee another round coming very soon.

While I am trying to switch to other companies, I’m not able to reveal the real reason from my side for the job change, as if I say, it’s because of layoff fears than it’ll reduce my negotiation power.

What other reasons can I give as I’ve just completed 9 months here and it’s too soon for any other company to take me in.
