Does anyone else get weirdly emotional talking about pay? I always think it’s smart to compare with a couple of trusted people to make sure I’m in the right range. But somehow, after chatting casually with folks outside work, I either walk away thinking ‘Whoa, I need to step up my game!’ or ‘Wait… that’s it?’ 😂 It’s like a little rollercoaster of envy and surprise every time!

I weirdly know what you mean. I also think about my income versus other people‘s income way too much. I don’t know what got me on this mindset, but I can’t help myself.

Yes… it’s like either you’re not making enough or you realize you’re making as much as you probably ever will

Anyone have any friends who successfully pivoted out of advertising? I know a handful of people who are half-trying to, but I can’t think of anyone who has made a clean break, on their own terms, into something that appears to be making them feel more fulfilled than they were in the ad biz. So they continue freelancing in order to make a living, while not gaining much traction elsewhere.

A relative is raising a teenage son with her ex-husband. They have joint physical custody. The ex-husband has re-married. When the son is in his care, he often leaves the son at home in California with his (new) wife when he travels for work (which is often). The relative wants her ex-husband to leave their son in her care when he travels out of town but the ex-husband disagrees. The relative wants to know her chances of prevailing if she were to appear in court on this issue. Thoughts? Thanks!
