Joiner at Tool. Not knowing the creative, there is a real chance most of these people will turn it down unless it’s very much in their senses of humor, timeline and rate. A list directors who have the qualities you’re looking for don’t take every job

So I recently asked for an higher salary, which I have been given. My role and responsibilities are the same.

This is my first salary bump and I don't really know how is it supposed to happen.

Thanks in advance

Please help me select my insurance plan. I am married (going to be 24% tax bracket) with a baby so I can choose between low, medium or high deductible medical plans. My wife is anticipating having significant medical expenses for the remainder of the plan year over the max out of pocket (oop).

Taking into account employer HSA contributions, tax savings and the max OOP amounts, is it less expensive to go with the high deductible (calc attached)? Sounds counterintuitive, but maybe I'm incorrect.

Honestly, what do you think weddings will look like this summer? We have already postponed twice from last spring, and are slated for late June this year, but are feeling pretty uneasy about this@even happening. We are considering cancelling the whole thing and doing a smaller intimate wedding with family/friends. We would lose all our deposits, and need to do the math on it, but we just are having a hard time justifying spending all the money for a big wedding this summer if people don’t (cont)

Additional Posts in Production

I feel like my creative team is secretly criticizing me for asking them to build decks (their job) and make executive and client revisions (also their job). It’s making me feel like a bad producer, but I’m also wondering why aren’t they in a more cooperative or positive mood when we meet to talk about work?
This is the only project we are all on and I don’t understand why they make me feel like I’m asking for too much.

Producers: myself and other freelance editor friends have a question we’re struggling with. Why do people so often reach out and ask us for holds with no information what the project is? A lot of us won’t give 1st holds without making sure it’s something we are interested in so this seems like a lose-lose for all of us. I do understand if there’s an NDA situation involved but often I get literally no details and am just told things like ‘we have a project coming up’. Any insight? Thank you!
