Make a mistake and see what happens. Maybe the fallout isn't as bad as we think afterall.

Mistake are going to happen, we're human and no one is perfect. Overreacting or working yourself up about it ahead of time is completely irrational.

I think it's important to make some mistakes and see that it's not the end of the world. It's all part of the learning process. As long as you look at it as a learning opportunity and don't try to hide or feel shame from it, then you're golden. I've made mistakes, people have been grumpy about it, but I just apologize, thank them for pointing it out, and say I'll learn from it going forward.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…

A few months ago, there were articles about how Juniper Park/TBWA’s hand sign saved the life of a kidnapped girl in a car. But the next day, reporters asked the guy who called the cops about it and he said he had no idea what the hand sign meant, he actually called the cops because the kidnapped girl kept mouthing “Help me.” I’ve heard of agencies exaggerating sales results or click through rates in case studies, I really hope JP/TBWA isn’t exaggerating about, literally, saving someone’s life.
