In an emergency Teams call this year, Senior and I were confused why/how an unfamiliar name kept trying to get in the call despite us declining their lobby request.

Eventually, we gave up and said let's just talk to the guy anyway we're still waiting for the partners to join the call.

Turns out it was the (most) senior partner using his grandkid's account to log in.

That must have not been an easy conversation to have.

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

I realized I've been a dummy for getting a job at a creative agency and not working on my portfolio. Most of the projects I've taken on, I've done so as a way to support others without taking much credit for it. Now, a better opportunity came along and I don't have anything to show for my talent as a designer. ALWAYS take credit for what you do, even if it's not your project to begin with.
