Thank you.

Hey Fish, I have almost 2 YOE in supply chain and honestly don’t feel like I can be in this field forever. Has anyone been successful in a career switch? I am interested in real estate but I feel like that ship has sailed. Any tips or pointers I should look out for?

🐠 who specialize in op model/org design cases — what sort of exit ops are you targeting? Most of the recruiters who reach out to me are for internal consulting gigs, and I am just curious what else there is out there where our skills could be useful.

Hi folks,

I have been offered a position on Senior Consultant/ Deputy Manager at Deloitte India for 4.5 years of exp.

Is this position/role normal for years of experience I hold?

Let’s say you’re the main character of some action movie. Think military / Jason Bourne / Ethan Hunt type of guy. You’re only bringing one watch with you on your mission across the world. Streets of Paris, African jungles, Southeast Asia, and wherever else the mission takes you. What watch you wearing?

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

i'm in the final round for 2 different media positions in 2 completely different places (NYC and NC) and things are moving really quickly for both. the NYC job is my dream one but they're both offering $40k so i'm conflicted. any advice would be helpful lol

Remind me why they got rid of Greg Hahn in the first place? Too expensive?

What was your most amazing day in advertising?

Didn’t know who the CCO is when I was asked about it in an interview... is there anything I can do to redeem myself? I feel like I really dropped the ball on this lol
