this one time a friend spiked our drinks and we woke up finding a tiger in our bathroom, getting punched out by mike tyson, and someone even got married to a stripper. but it all worked out when we found our friend we thought was lost.

Catalina Island 🌴summer party. I thought it would be smart to take a running jump into a random cart on the way back to the ferry....4 stitches later I became a legend.

Do you not know about the Fox Upfront party pooper? There used to be pictures but this is many years ago. Truly a tale of caution.

Blacked out at a holiday party. Cried in the bathroom... with my boss. Stole my CEO’s coat at coat check at the end of the night. (To be fair it looked JUST like mine.)

@SD1 not surprised but that’s too bad. Alcohol brings out the worst in many people but really they need help. Our industry has a bit of a hollow leg for a lot of these antics. I think that’s shifting though. I hope the guy got clean. You can always start anew if you straighten out.

DMC1 - tell the story!

Be careful what you reveal at work parties after a few too many. I had way too many at a work holiday party once. A higher level colleague started fishing for dirt on my supervisor and I let it ALL out. Totally humiliated the next day when pulled into a room to discuss my unbecoming behavior. I was totally accountable to it, but definitely felt “set up” by the person fishing for dirt. You just never know who will throw you under the bus. I wasn’t fired... just appropriately humiliated for a long, long time.

@ECD1 That guy (evp of strategy at McCann commonwealth) was fired Hasn’t worked since

I watched a plastered Jr. Copywriter call Renata Fernandez a liar and an asshole at OneShow after being offered an interview at TBWA.

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing.

I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence
