🎃 What remote teambuilding/social committee events has your office done since COVID?

Looking for ideas to replace the drinks or office goodies we normally give out (Halloween, Christmas, July 4, Valentines etc., plus random “fun stuff”) – we’ve done a few virtual happy hours but obviously everyone has had more than enough of Zoom at this stage! We’re all sticking within our immediate teams for informal catch ups - any ideas that involve the whole agency?

What’s the dress code for zoom interviews? So far, I’ve definitely been dressed more formally than my interviewers but could be because they were tech companies

Any of your firms do virtual gifts or corporate appreciation for your teams? We want to do something for our hard working team that is spread out over the nation but not make it an event where we’re stuck doing over zoom. Ideally something like wine delivery just to show appreciation

Zoom meetings have been fantastic. I can highly recommend my home group SOS. 7:30 daily. Great way to get grounded as you start your day.

Our district voted on returning back to school with students in the classroom and some staying at home. We now have to teach students in the room and on Zoom at the same time. I’m not complaining but does anyone have any tips on the best and most effective way to get this done?

I am the partner leading our local office lgbt group. What should I be doing to engage more with our people during this time? Zoom once a month only goes so far I think but I have run out of other ideas.

AIR is hosting our next Straight Talk panel discussions on Monday 3/15 on zoom.

Topic: Producers & Reps: Pain Points & Pleasure Points … where we dive into what works, what doesn’t, what makes the best rep & producer relationship and how can we be better partners for/ with one another.

Seeking freelance or staff producers interested in being a panelist. Kindly DM. Thank you!

So we hired our own doctor to be on a firm wide WebEx about how COVID is ok. When pushed on whether the Dr would travel, he says “No.” LOL @ the idiocy of my firm.

I’m interviewing for BCG and had a principal reach out to me for a zoom chat. Is this normal for principals to reach out or is this a positive sign?

Zoom (huge chunk, currently at loss)- sell or hold?

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

IEP, 504, and those without internet will return in-person next week while rest of students remain remote. Regular Ed teachers may have students (mild Learning Disabled kiddos) in their room while teaching. They are saying it’s a liability issue if they have one student in the room with them, even though teaching other via Zoom. Thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this?

As things start to open up fully, some of my institutional clients are sending notices that we are expected to do X activity over zoom from here on out (things we used to do in person). Clearly it’s a cost cutting measure. Anyone else feel like filing for telephonic appearance so the insurance company can save a buck isn’t going to sit well with judges who prefer in person attendance? I hope they deny all of them so my billables don’t suffer. Less travel = more desk bs I have to do to hit quota

Hello. I have a job interview coming up. When asked the question by the interviewer, “Why do you want to leave your current employer for us?” What is the best answer?

My personal website (created on squarespace) is laughably out of date - I just can’t seem to find the time to update it given 24/7 job and young child. Any digital ADs up for a quick gig? Compensation is negotiable - but generous. DM me if interested!

Am I the only one who’s bothered and slightly worried about the EV trend. The imminent death of ICE is kinda sad. I saw a Porsche 964 EV conversion video the other day, fast car sure but no soul 😔🥲

I survived the cull and consider myself lucky for that.

Anyone who hasn't, please post here with your background and industry alignment.

I'm sure many others on here would be willing to put you in touch with personal contacts to help you get back in employment.

Now more than ever, remember that this too shall pass.

Love the discussions on here especially w the perspective that anonymity gives us the opportunity to voice extreme positions and polarizing disagreements that may not have been said in normal settings

It’s times like these... when I am dialing into a client call on a Saturday of a holiday weekend at my grandparent’s house...that quitting seems like the only option.

My professional life at the moment is far from ideal. I’ve been on quarantine (long story, but a good one) for the last seven years. Royalties from my books don’t pay the bills. My entrepreneurial pursuits remain hampered. For the interim, I’ve been looking for a remote opportunity where I can leverage my skills in marketing, sales, social media, and elsewhere for a decent sum. I have a social media presence which, in recent years, reached millions. There has to be something exciting I can do.

Whenever anyone asks how work is going I always answer with “it’s funding my lifestyle” and they look shocked. Do you guys actually have a dream job? I can’t imagine loving work everyday for the rest of my life.
