Did Peloton really un-ironically put “Man’s Not Hot” in a commercial in the year 2022?

I have not been diagnosed with ADHD. I definitely fit some of the characteristics that go unnoticed in females. The good news is if i do have ADHD, it makes me quite good at my job as I’m very flexible and can provide positive energy to my patients. Anyway, my boss has told me I have ADHD multiple times. It seems rude when she says it, and she follows it up with “I say that because I love you” which i feel is so unprofessional all around. Anyone have guidance on how to handle this?

A sleepy summer Sunday watching the end of a great test cricket match, grabbing a beer with friends and glorious weather. Honestly it is the first day since covid that life feels normal for me

I just had my first ultrasound and they’re telling me I’m only 6w3d… but I really thought I was 7w6d based on my last period and conception date (I’ve been tracking everything with Flo). It feels off to me bc I’ve tested positive for 4 weeks now. How do you know what to trust?

My boss started harassing me because he found out I am vaccinated against covid. What does a vaccine have anything to do with marketing?

Saw my therapist this past Friday and he gave me a useful trick to build better behavior patterns. Whenever you have work to do but would rather nap or something, tell yourself 3 negative effects of the nap and 3 positive effects of doing the work. You might still take the nap, but if you can get in the habit of thinking of it negatively, you'll take less naps when you need to be doing other things.

Doesn't matter what the activities are. Could be working out vs eating more, could be socializing IRL vs wasting time in FB (lol)

Anyone else heard of this/tried it?

EmergenC- can it be taken everyday?

31 M 5 foot 8 200 lbs. muscular build. I want to get to 180 and know strength will take a hit. Has anyone experienced weight loss while maintaining muscle mass? Lifting 4-6 times a week for 45 mins. Cardio 1-2 times and that’s like a 15-20 min walk at most. Diet 75% vegan. How can I drop this weight? I’m fine to eat like a dog and have the same meals every day I just need someone to tell me what to eat and when.

Can anyone recommend a good book/materials to prep for the CIPP/CIPM? 🙏🏽

Thinking of getting a peloton. Anyone actually experience weight loss and overall health improvement from having one?

I make excuses for not going to the gym and the number 1 being convenience so I figure if it’s in my actual home then I have no excuses!

Be nice, thanks! 😊

PwC 🐠 - health insurance coverage. What are the deductibles for the high-deductible plans? Still want to use the HSA. Thanks!

Thoughts on Viibryd? Im on my 4th week and I feel like it’s affecting my cognition. I’m finding it difficult connecting the dots as I carry out my job and it’s getting me worried.

My anxiety has been at bay after changing my job and just feeling like I HAVE control over my life. But now it's back because I feel like I'm behind in other aspects of my life (I.e dating). I have so many friends getting engaged and I just feel... anxious since I am SO single. I'm 27, and I know I'm at that age where people do but it just sucks. I've been on the apps too and it's just... more demotivating honestly than anything else

So I don’t get it. I checked stats at a fertility clinic and they look decent on fertility iq. I looked at the art stats and it appears that the stats are low -like 20 percent success rate?!

Best age to freeze my eggs? I’m 30. Is it too early?

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess. Knowing that is figurative, what should I actually be expecting? I feel mostly the same, I think, though I came in and actually did started my work today. But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.

Has your company made vaccine mandatory?

Jan 6th check in. How’s your workout?🧐

Had signed for AYDE. Now having to cancel it as I have got fever. Just an explanation I hadn't been to office recently. I wasn't feeling well for over 8 days so I didn't visit office. I probably caught it from somewhere else.

We recently started the fertilization process with frozen eggs. I had 11 frozen and all survived the thaw but only 3 turned into embryos. We are waiting to see how many get to the blast state. Does any one know where I can find statistics on what the typical attrition / success rates are?

How long do you spend on monthly reporting for your clients?
My 3-person team spends about 15+ hours a month each writing monthly reports for our clients (99 small retainer clients). We’ve received feedback that they’re too complicated and the clients just want to know - are we on the right track, what action items are there, and what any next steps are in their strategy.
How do you simplify without losing value?

Anyone here a Data Product Manager who wouldn’t mind having a quick chat about practices within this area of the business?

My new agency’s healthcare plan only has ONE physician in NYC listed as in-network... is a plan this limited the norm?!

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?

Hi guys,

Hi Fishes,

Any one worked in global logic and Fujitsu?

Please suggest

What are some of the truly impactful, long-term cost curve bending opportunities you have worked on for health systems?

Ex consultant, currently in industry. BCG HR contacted me for a role, process was a lil messy and unprofessional. Still waiting for the “exploratory chat” she was supposed to set up with the MDP since 2 weeks ago. Texted on whatsapp but no response. Normal?

Has anyone heard of TechGC/DeputyGC? Thoughts on membership?

Is it just me or have you also noticed that during the endless back to back zoom/teams meetings, people drift away and not take down action points?

Did the billable hours bonus not get paid out today? Or is it to be paid in the next check?

Please suggest.
I have received my first offer letter, now what all things I should do to get more job calls and better offer?

I got offers from PragerM, UHY, and PKF. I think I made my decision but wanted to see if anyone had any insight of them. Would you not choose one for one reason or another? Or is there one that stands out and would jump on immediately? Thanks all.

How many PDMers in here are happy to be PDM?

How many wish they were core/traditional?

BTCs dipping a bit through the weekend. Could that be an indicator to predict red futures tomorrow?

If there is anything science taught you it is-

When is the progesterone oil shot suppose to cause pain? I injected my wife 15 min ago in the upper outer quadrant and she feels fine.

Stupid Question- We have been thinking for IVF and trying to understand with this process, is there any difference in the health and life of the child as compared to a child born without IVF. I did ask this with our doctor and he said casually its all same. This is not to question any doctor but just to really understand what is going to be different with the kid. This is not very old technology and not much studies as well.

If you could work at an agency for the rest of your career, would you do it? Or do you see being a professional creative as a means to another career altogether?

If you were offered a job at a great agency but working on just one brand, but it was a big one like Nike or McDonalds, would you do it? Being siloed sucks, but maybe worth it for a big account?

Thinking about making a move from agency to our state’s PBS HQ. Obviously less money, but also more purpose. Curious if anyone has made a move for purpose>money/prestige/etc and if it’ll be worth it, or just make me miss clients and their budgets and the craziness of agency life (which I love)

Anyone know of headhunters in publishing or entertainment, or good ones in our world who are savvy in such things?

What is the biggest misconception you’ve had to deal with/overcome in advertising?

How many unread e-mails do you have in your box right now?

I’ve always been comfortable concepting and writing. But when it comes to nitty gritty logistical stuff, I struggle. Like the discussions about aspect ratios, social post timelines, and the nuances of Facebook collection ads.

Can any other writers relate?

Just me here hoping that slack never adds the “read” notification on messages.

I have no talent for awards work. What should I do?

Has any creative here ever tried to make the leap to leave advertising and be a film maker, photographer, illustrator, etc.?? I’m so tired of ad agencies and how draining the “creative” can be. Happiness is more important than a nice paycheck for me. Any inspiration success stories advice would be so helpful right now...

Regarding insane working hours: what if creatives unionized?

Just curious what y’all think.

Living outside of NYC and remote interviewing for a job, landing an offer, then relocating to NYC -> anyone ever done this?

I want to become an art director with zero design skills. I’m going to have someone else comp everything up for me. The ideas might be solid. Who wants to hire me?

FCB Health Chicago - What’s it like?

What makes a bro?

AKQA NY thoughts?

I love living in NYC. Unfortunately, I haven’t found the kind of job I want here. Can someone suggest me other states where creative agencies are actually hiring?

Trying to find a video example of where a person stays in the same place in the frame but a new scene is revealed by a wipe or mask. So it’s the same person but their wardrobe and set will change around them. TIA

I put in my two weeks! But now it's weird here haha. Agencies should ask you to leave and pay you out. This is silly.
