God help us.

My boyfriend is texting his best friend's girlfriend. He openly says "oh i texted her about x" to me and I believe him...but my concern is that they're going to start some sort of flirtationship. She's some sort of model and has even told her boyfriend that my boyfriend is funny whereas she says her boyfriend is obnoxious. Is this something to worry about? We're not in a great space right now so Idk what to think.

Hi fishes,

Looking for advice on what types of reports/data are most convincing to senior leadership for keeping staff on who serve internal functions (knowledge managers, intranet, content specialists)- I fear these are the positions which will be lost/replaced by contractors. I want to improve my quantitative skills so I can be more succinct. Any recs for skills I should learn? I can’t spend much $$ (i.e no grad school.) ps My title makes it sound like i have more background in analytics then I do :)

Any tips on how to navigate colleagues and clients that talk over you? I struggle with speaking up esp when I get interrupted or my comments get ignored then reiterated by someone else.

I’m currently in a lease admin type role, in commercial real estate. I make a base salary of $50.5K with about $9k in bonuses. I’ve continuously received 7-10% raises over the last 3 years. I anticipate getting a promotion this year and would like to get closer to $60k for my base salary. I’m the only person in my role at the company and have been a key person in developing our team as we look to expand. Is this unreasonable? Is there a normal increase given with promotions? Thanks in advance!

I joined FIL in June 2022. I don’t think I’ll be eligible for any sort of increment. But, any idea how much would be my bonus ? My variable pay in OL is 1.70 Lac, and my feedback has also been amazing.

Is there any profile which is based on purely SQL and nothing else, no excel/tableau/powerbi task.

Does anyone know if we can reimburse expenses for items listed in Wageworks while on maternity?

I know we cannot expense phone/internet/ commuter benefit as I am not actively doing work.

However, for other items that fall under wage works reimbursement, I couldn’t find anything in writing yet.

How are Corporate Development and Corporate Finance roles different in Industry? Is one sub set of another?

Thank you for starting this bowl. I come from a strict Christian background and it’s becoming hard to reconcile my faith with agency life. I never used to drink, now I am borderline alcoholic. Need 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Love this thread :)

Is there a church that is popular with people in advertising?

Anybody have a Christian therapist they recommend? I’d like to start going. Chicago or virtual option. My insurance doesn’t cover it and don’t have a high salary so can’t be super $$$

God is on His throne

Hi! So glad to find this bowl!
Today, I was looking through other bowls and see comments like: “Anyone tired of chasing money?” “Is it just me or as I get older do you realize how little awards and accolades mean?” And I’m reminded of how grateful I am to have my hope in something other than my work. I hope my coworkers see that in me, too. That I work hard but advertising is not what fulfills me.

Can i get an amen?!

If anyone needs a prayer, put your needs on this post. I wanna pray for you.

I have been using this emoji 🙏 and saying to so many colleagues and clients “I’ll pray for you” with such warm and genuine receipt that I think sometimes God uses hopelessness to open people’s hearts to Him. I’ve spoken about my faith to work people more than I ever have in my 20 year career. In such a dark time, what a light prayer can be for our coworkers and clients.

Amid this crisis I hope the Christian body can be a channel of blessing and a city on a hill. How are you all working to be obedient to God and be a light in this time?

Went to Hillsong NYC today. It was unbelievable. Feel renovated! God is good! Love that place!

The thing prayed for became a praise report that’s now back 2 a prayer request. God help me! Grateful for the shift but don’t yet feel I’m walking in my calling. How 2 remain steadfast in the journey?

It has been hard to find a church in NYC where your friends with kids around 12yo are not moving to somewhere else.

If you are feeling anxious and depressed these days, just know that you are not alone.

Please put a note and I would love to pray for you. God bless you all!

Need prayer 🙏🏻 some complications with my company transitioning me into a full time position. Now I have to look for a new position and am not having luck. Feeling anxiety. Hard to have faith.

Anyone looking for junior writers?

Is is advised or discouraged to list volunteer service on a resume?

I feel it helps me stand out but am also worried some may judge me helping others through my church with being anti- this or that.

If God is the Creator of all, and we are made in the image of God, imagine what echoes of his creative mind we can produce in our work?
