This industry is exhausting but with all its kissing clients asses, carrying weak employees, long hours and juggling a bunch of projects, it’s still great. It’s a career that makes 6 figures early with only a bachelor’s, travel, get promoted more often than most, you can infuse culture, see a portion of your work in society or have impact, stay abreast of technology and social evolution. Most people in music or sports will talk about how it’s a job. You can make over $350k a year and not be a CEO. To be a top 1% globally is $35k and top 1% globally is $400k. This industry will test you, but too often we forget the privileges we have.
I like it most of the times but when I hate it ooooo boi I hate it
Love it and hate it. I can’t see myself in another industry though. It’d have to be creative.
This is my problem
I do sometimes but most times I hate it.

Yes, yes. Not sure the point of the question though, my why is not your why. If you're not feeling it, thats valid.
No
It's not easy but I'm still excited and challenged every day. It's given me the chance to travel the world, meet incredible people and provide my family and community. And, most days, I really enjoy what I do.
No. Should’ve tried to be a journalist. 🤣
Depends on the day lol. I’ve worked in others and it’s similar frustration for Black people.
