Did you all have a period of time in your copywriting journey where you felt like you were no good as a copywriter? As an intern, I'm finding it really hard to see the value in embracing harsh feedback. It always crushes me and makes me feel like maybe it's not too late to just switch careers and stop pursuing something I'm not good at. Could you share a bit about this period of your career, if you had one? I could really use some motivation right now.

Might be starting at a small agency as a full time Junior AD soon, fingers crossed. The only other roles I’ve had at agencies were freelance and intern before WFH.

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration. Some of these matters are multi-plaintiff and multi-defendant cases, but none are class actions. This does not include any matters I am handling in the charge stage or in pre-litigation. Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”.

How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

Or is it okay not to push for a title upgrade?
