How does one cure themselves of the crime of enjoying puns? I know puns are considered deplorable and taser-worthy, but why can't my mouth stop smiling whenever i see a pun wtf

Seek out great headline-driven campaigns and you’ll find work you’re envious of. You can find it in awards annuals, Ads of the World, etc. For me, seeing the 1980s-90s-early 00s campaigns for Harley-Davidson, the Economist, etc. were inspirational. You’ll see that there are so many types of wordplay available that puns lose their luster. They have their time and place, but they’re just one arrow in your quiver.

I'll let you in on a secret: every copywriter secretly likes them

Not a secret for me. 🙊 What’s portfolio school if not a yearlong program of pun-writing?

Take a class from Mark Fenske and that will cure you.

Don’t fight it. Puns are awesome.

How important is it to nab referrals to jobs that you are applying to? I know some people in tech that say it’s really important to land the first round, but is it the same in business? Also re: recruiter DMs/emails, do you have an advantage in the interview process if you are reached out to, or is it just something they do on a mass scale during hiring frenzies?

Looking for examples of live action spots that feature a non-human character doing regular human things. Example: Cadbury Gorilla.

How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
