Bought an apt in Staten Island; I qualify for a cap gain tax exclusion of $250k if I sell by Nov (5yr mark). Was gonna list in Apr but given shutdown of RE, wondering if tax rules will be eased..

Popped a xanax before an interview, what a mistake that was. Sometimes, anxiety is good.

Feeling super low. Went through final rounds at 2 companies. The hiring teams sent multiple notes saying they are very impressed only to be told later that the job position is on hold. Back to square1

Kudos to the man on the train next to me who has his ticket around his neck, his glasses in his hand and a full sleeping mask on. 😴

Dear Creative Directors who’s only talent is showing up to meeting with a full repertoire of buzzwords, die slow. Thanks, everyone.

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

I’m already dreading Monday.

Is it really that hard for managers to book their own conference rooms and send out invites? The time it takes to ask one to do it could it not have just been done by themselves?

Other good markets that pay well enough to match the income taxes? BF and I just finished our state taxes and that IL tax hike was not cool to our current salaries..

Funny to see how men are trying to post shit about DMA...

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

Any agencies that have a good reputation, but suck when you actually work there? Wonder why that happens?

I've seen quite a few people make jokes about being "aged out" of advertising. Could someone please explain what that looks like and when that typically happens? Forgive the dumb question, I'm a newbie to the industry so I'm a bit confused. Wouldn't agencies want people with more experience?

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

Marcel here. So instead of talking behind my back, how about saying it to my face? Here I am, ready to answer questions, concerns, or just talk sports. So what would you like to know? 🤖

Would you rather work at an agency or work client side?

When choosing company health plan level options, (they pay mine not family’s) do you go for the gold (low deduct/co-pay) silver or bronze(high deduct/co-pay)?

I know this industry has a high turnover rate.... but is leaving a job after 6 months too soon?

I’m currently in the US but starting to miss the family and friends in Europe... The agency I’m at have offices there. How common are transfers? Who do I talk to in the agency? Don’t want to come off as I want to leave but more so that I want to be closer to my family.

How did your agency handle layoffs? All-agency meeting before they started? After they ended? Both?

Kinda sorta trying to predict if I’m losing my job tomorrow.
