The CW that I’d work the longest with (for about 3 years) had just being promoted to ECD on a big cool shop after very good run. Meanwhile I was just promoted to ACD at an OK medium shop after a very torturous run that almost made me quit ad life for good.

Sometimes I wonder what the hell did I do wrong.
I didn’t even think he was that good back then 😂.

He is a nice guy tho and I’m happy for him and for whoever will be working for him.

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.

Hey, so I’m going to my first 3% conference. I heard it’s usually white feminism x 100. But I was wondering what I should expect? Has anyone been.

African American 🐟 - why do I feel so annoyed when I hear “black” ads on the radio? With the sassy female leads and the urban slang and such. Feels so forced and wack. Just me?

jack'd or SoulSwipe?

How correct is the term “African American"?
What about black people from Haiti, Caribbean, etc.

Is it about where people are indigenous to?

Not all Black Americans are African American,
right?

Transparent moment: I,recently,was laid-off a week ago. At this point compensation and work culture are the only things I’m looking at. I don’t want to compromise my mental health and I don’t want to work somewhere that is super fast paced. How can you tell if a team has a burn out culture?

What’s an appropriate rate to charge per word for a publication like VentureBeat or TechCrunch?

Anybody struggle with imposter syndrome as a minority? How and why? Need some coping strategies man.

Dear Nappily Ever After,
No one has an office, much less an assistant. Creative and account are different jobs with their own dress codes. But dumb, off brief ideas by white creatives do win.

I’m still trying to process seeing an agency exec well known for dismissing and ignoring POC held up as an exemplary diversity champion for women at the 3% Conference.

If I got a raise for every micro aggression I’ve received while at my current agency, I’d be in a really high income bracket! Hah.

We’re hiring on our media & connections team. Various levels. If you’re looking to make a jump from a traditional media agency or a strategist who wants to get closer to both media and creative. Lmk.

Just found out I got laid off. Cheers to the weekend 🍺

If you could change anything to increase minority representation in marketing, what would you change? I think I'd want at least 2-3 minority employees in creative leadership positions to make sure things like colorism in ads less likely to pass the final edit.

The more I work in advertising, the more apparent that majority of companies (and my own colleagues) don’t know how to reach consumers like me. It’s absolutely tragic. (Cont’d)
