I’ve been struggling with finding the right antidepressant. I started a few months ago but had really bad side effects and stopped (headaches, lethargy, nausea, inability to concentrate). The withdrawal is just as bad. I’ve noticed that I made mistakes when my mind was in a haze and just can’t seem to work. I think I need to find an antidepressant that works for me but I’m nervous it’s going to make work that much harder. Do I tell someone at my firm? If so, how?

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

Does anyone work for Eli Lilly? Had a few questions!

Platinum AF just posted. First time it’s come in at $695. That’s a losing position for me this year, I think. Anyone have luck getting it back down to $550?

What are fun things to do for 2nd date in Chicago?

Anyone at the Relient K show at House of Blues tonight?

Anyone else have elected officials who think "the Rona" is an Obama and Clinton hoax?

I recently lateraled into Big Law. Most of my colleagues are homegrown. My shift did involve a big change in practice area, and there's work that I haven't done before that I now have to do.

But, sometimes I feel stupid here, even for work which I have done previously. It's like I'm unable to understand instructions the first time around. And I have seen my colleagues getting annoyed by that. It's like I've become dumb. In my defence, I could say they're giving half assed instructions.

Hello from Portlandia- I'm new to the bowl + just wanted to connect ;)

Would anyone be willing to help out a clueless PR student with an interview assignment? :) I’d love to learn more about advertising and ask questions about your career!

My fellow AAPI fishies – Sending you lots of love, support, and healing following the unsettling events in Atlanta. So grateful for this community <3 <3

We all heard about black history month. Will a yellow history month be cool or offensive?

Asian leadership, pls post names

Is your agency doing anything for AAPI Heritage Month?

People always thought I was the IT guy

Coming from a different bowl on a similar topic... Any tips for introverted East Asians in agencies to schmooze better lol?

Are any agencies celebrating LNY?

Whatttt'sssss good my dooooods

If anyone is looking for a last minute volunteer for panel and speakers for AAPI. Please DM me. I’ve been stuck in a Covid loop and forgot about this time of the year. Would love to be part of the events.

I’m proud of you everyone!!

Hey, I’ve been working at an agency for 10 months. Tbh the low entry level salary in marketing is getting to me. I live in a high cost of living city. I hate having to work from 9-6, sometimes skipping lunch(not paid for lunch hour), and working overtime for no over time pay. Is it worth sticking it out or switching fields? I didn’t have the best childhood and want to be self sustainable faster. I’m not a quitter but my mental health is not in a good place. Would like some advice. Thanks!

New CEO/CCO is Asian. Feeling empowered

Can we talk about the rise of hate crimes in AAPI community? My heart is heavy as we celebrate Lunar New Year this year.
