Hey all! I have lost 10kg since two years and started calorie tracking to lose more. I'm 1.84m and 74kg. My goal is to get a six pack but I'm very far from it. What am I doing wrong?

Any fellow bailiffs here?! what's your favorite part of the job?

I don't know, but I just don't feel it this year. I have little helpful support from admin. I was offered the position of department chair and was given NOTHING to help me prepare. Feeling lost.

Anyone check out the latest Oct USCIS visa bulletin which indicates a 2.5+ year regression for Indian EB2 applicants for green cards? Thoughts?

Which city has the best exit opportunities for cybersecurity? TIA!

Anyone else smoke week nights? How can you be sure you don't stink?

Am I in the wrong for feeling sour? I work under two male partners (one managing and the other just a regular partner whose been practicing 2 years less than me) and am constantly being given too much work to do. The managing partner doesn’t take my calls and is not one to talk about “feelings” and the other is known for always passing off work and manages to fall forward because he’s the managing partner’s favorite.

What is your dream agency to work for and why?

Speedmaster 🐠 should I go Speedy Pro Hesalite or the FOIS? What did you choose and why?

This year was super busy, it was impossible to take leaves. Are we going to get special extension to use our days until June or sth? (Like we had 2 years ago). That would seem fair to me after getting my holidays declined so many times.

Do you see parent/community social media playing a role in what's happening in your school?

Looking for a lifestyle Photographer in Florida. Any recommendations?

Was a part-time employee at a community college in California. They let me go Friday
with no notice due to budgetary reasons. When should I receive my paycheck? $500
each day I go without it per the WARN act?

You’re given a brief for an OOO campaign. Could be cool. How many days are you given before you have to show concepts to the ECD? And to the client? Curious about time expectations at different places.

What are three words you've always wanted to put in your copy but, for whatever reason, can't? Mine: callipygian, hent and flatus.

A pal asked if I’d help with a side gig. Said he’d throw me $100 if I’d write some tag lines and copy for a website. We had a kickoff and discussed way more work: in addition to copy, I wrote a brief on overall recommendations for the site. He acknowledged he wanted to pay me more for my time than initially scoped. I only spent ~3 hours. They’ve now asked to pay me, but determining my value is tough, esp working with a friend. I don’t want to offend by requesting what I actually think i deserve

Let’s talk about copy wins! Who’s got ‘em? Share yours here to get some mid-week inspiration flowing. 👇

if there's a style of writing you could get certified in, which would you choose and why?

Struggling to find a jr copywriter job in advertising, any non-ad writing avenues you would suggest looking into? Thanks!

I’m redoing my website and my goal is to get a more sr level role (copy lead, dir of copy) Does anyone have a portfolio site they think is a good example? What types of things should I do differently?

How can I land a job in copywriting/creative when I've been in paid social for a while and don't really have a strong portfolio? Where's the best place to start?

I presented multiple ideas that I thought was a game changer and it keeps getting rejected. All these generic traditional ideas are being chosen and it sucks.. I want to make a difference in the advertising industry but I wonder, do you guys eventually accept how things are and stop suggesting ideas out the norm.

I’m seeking new jobs but my last 3 years of work have been with a niche entertainment advertising agency. What’s a good way to combat the industry “attitude” of not coming from a big name?

What’s been your most impressive/successful salary negotiation when you’ve received an offer? Did you manage to get way more PTO or other perks?

I hope I find fellow-writer compatriots here who hate buzzwords as much as I do. Verbnouns like "The Ask" and current trendy word "unpack" make me imagine murder sprees. It's a writer thing right?

Been one of the only writers at my digital shop for two years. Busted my ass since I started and was finally notified of my first raise today...a measly 0.02%.

I realize raises are tough to come by right now, but am I justified in feeling insulted? We have some big clients on our current roster for a relatively small agency, and the best they could do wasn't even a full percentage? Is it even worth it to counteroffer?
Been eyeing other jobs for a minute, but this was probably the final straw.

I’ve noticed a huge FT salary decline in the copy world which makes me think some of us are accepting less than we are worth and hurting our whole industry. Should we share salary ranges & cities?

Hello copyfish, strategist here. Looking to hear from you all what you find most helpful from your strategy team?! Data? Creative sparks? An objective? I’m trying to focus on making briefings easier

Curious what others are responsible for when it comes to design (specifically those of you who have a FT designer). Writing callout boxes, pull quotes, etc. is part of the job. But for a recent project I was asked to provide detailed ideas for the header image and in-text graphics, including whether we should go with stock or illustration styles.

What do you do when you have an AD partner that isn’t conceptual? Normal? Wonderful designer, but when it comes to the big ideas it constantly falls onto me...(1/2)

I'd like to practice writing tv as much as I can, even outside of work. I'm not motivated enough to write scripts on my own. I'd like to volunteer writing tv ads for a non-profit or something similar. Does anybody know of a site for something like this?

Can any freelance copywriters share what their hourly rate is?

I transitioned from full-time agency copywriter to part-time freelance copywriter (and full-time mom) 4 years ago. I have 13 years of experience. I've never raised my rate and it's time, but I'm out of touch with what is typical. I would be so grateful for your input!
