Do other line producers over here feel like you actually get a say in managing the budget? It's literally my job description, but every time I bring up facts like the hike in 'fringe' costs for crew benefits and how there might be a need to cut into the art department’s creative budget or increase the budget, it's always "he doesn't know what he's saying". Am I with the wrong team or is this all of your experiences too?

For those of you who got out at 10, do you wish that you rode it out to 20? I’m at a crossroad and I’m not sure what to do. Have some active/reserve time, wrapping up graduate school, and am now considering either a) come back to the business world or b) go active and retire before 50 and live off a nice pension. Obviously there are draws to both. I’m an officer for what it’s worth so I can realistically retire at O-5, MAYBE O-6.

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?

Confession is that I dislike when ppl say oh my “gosh”… just say omg. What’s wrong with that
