Can any healthcare bankers with experience in dealing with Canadian Healthcare system shed some light on why the system is inefficient and why it takes so long to see a specialist?

Why do recruiters never tell you which agency they want to talk to you about until they get you on the phone? I don’t want to waste anyone’s time and it would be helpful to know this info from the initial outreach. My experience with this only applies to healthcare, but would imagine it’s the same in consumer as well. Anyone?

Just moved into an apartment in Old Town. The insulation for both sound and heat is terrible. I can hear everything going on outside and am nervous that the heat/gas bill will be insane.

We live near a train stop (~200 yards away) and hear it crystal clear.

Do you think my landlord will do anything to fix it if we ask? I’m more concerned about the noise. Any tips?

How long can you go without having anything to do before you get laid off?

Advertising has ruined my life. I can’t even ask a friend about getting drugs without sounding like a tool - “Following up in regard to gram and point pricing for our visit”

Layoffs at Omnicom shops today?

Do people read Glassdoor reviews? I should have before starting here 🤦🏽‍♂️

Burnetters are always last to know about Burnett news. 😑

Am I the only person who has been super disgusted to Fishbowl’s response to the Meta layoffs? I’ve been laid off twice in my career but I’m not mad at 11000 people who no longer have jobs just cause they got decent severance while I got a week on my way out. Facebook is hot garbage but I’m pretty sure 0 out of the 11000 were making those decisions. So why are you upset about it? Urgh. Y’all are weird.

My challenge to everyone of you. Every leader, every future leader, everybody who will lead this industry one day: when we get back to normal, whatever that will look like, get personally involved again with recruiting, hiring and mentoring. DO NOT leave personnel decisions to HR, alone. DO Not rely on the parasitic temp agencies like creative circle and Aquent to do all the work. Get involved. Give a damn. A creative leader saw value in me, l assume someone saw value in you too. Pay it forward.

Publicis- I’m confused. Do you get paid for Gigs on Marcel? Or is it just to get experience?

Anyone can recommend some awesome street fashion photographers from Argentina?

Do pharma agencies intentionally over-promote / inflate titles so you’re stuck and not really qualified to leave?

I woke up this morning, went to the gym, made myself a nice breakfast. Folded some laundry, cleaned up the apartment and now I’m working outdoors at a coffee shop. Lunch hour is blocked so I can take a nice walk and listen to a podcast. God I love remote working.

How do you deal with not getting the desired output from somebody working under you? I think I’ve given enough examples and direction but the work still isn’t where I need it.

My contribution to advertising today: confirmed that the 2017 was changed to 2019.

You’re all welcome.

When an agency is about to hire you as a creative lead but without seeing your book to find out what you had done in your career, is that a red flag to you as a creative?

What’s your post-pitch/post-presentation relaxer?

Hi fellow fishies - loaded question but does anyone know of any agencies (ideally in NYC) that are open to visa sponsorship? I have a good friend and former coworker who is a KICKA$$ account lead and is struggling to find a new role (needle in a haystack for sponsorship... ugh). Current place is beyond toxic. Any info/advice appreciated! Thank you 😊
