Hello! Need some advice: been working in healthcare advertising but it’s really been a struggle that leaves me stressed out and I’m realizing it’s not a great fit. However, I don’t know if I should look for another cw job in this economy or just quit advertising altogether.

I’ve been praying about it but I’ve only had 1 interview in the past year and just feel pretty defeated.

Feel you. This business just comes with anxiety (which makes a Christian walk even more difficult “…do not worry…”).

God’s timing is perfect. Keep looking, stay in the Word, keep praying/talking to Him. And of course, trust.

I know that is all easier said than done, and might even feel a little trite, but that’s the best way to live.

No need to stress. Keep plugging away knowing your situation is temporary and apply as much as you can handle. Someone hired you once. Someone will hire you again.

I wouldn't have nearly as many issues with conservative principles if they weren't so hypocritical in how they enact them.

I'm not opposed to lowering taxes, smaller government, and respecting individual rights, but they simultaneously support bailing out big businesses, expanding church and state, and massive deficit spending to pay for dumb wars and tax loopholes for hedge fund managers.

I'd rather see our government provide food, healthcare, and shelter than any of the above things.
