I hate Thanksgiving. Being urged to eat all the food by mom who then asks why you've gained weight. 2 years ago I landed in London on Thanksgiving and ran around sightseeing. I got a turkey cranberry sandwich to go from Sainsburys and this is one of my best and clearest t day memories. I'm usually just waiting for it to be over

Me: 🥲

Has anyone tried Peter Shankman’s ADHD coaching? Thoughts, experience?

I am driving both me and my husband crazy. We both work from home in a 4 bedroom home pretty decent size. My husband wants to do daycare and id prefer a nanny. Thankfully money isn’t the the concern, it’s more he thinks we’ll be distracted and I am nervous about anti-vax people and rise of polio and whooping cough. We went to a daycare we liked but they did they allowed religious exceptions which makes me uncomfortable. Would love to get feedback.

I feel so guilty for not always modeling good health. Anybody else feel that way?

Do you guys keep your own photo in your resume/cv??

Need advice: currently unemployed. got laid off last week. still applying and interviewing daily but can’t get over this one opportunity. the process has dragged on for a really long time. had a convo with the COO 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard back sense. I’ve emailed HR and the COO but no response. I feel I’ve been ghosted but at the same time I’m still holding onto hope that they maybe have a slow process.

On the news, there was a report that "stress" causes negative health effects. Um. OK. Don't people feel "stress" just by being alive? Like, what would be the control group that you could measure the results against? I don't know why, but it always makes me wonder

Has anyone switched from being Analytics Manager to Product Manager? How did you do it? How do you like it so far? (If you did the vice versa, do you miss being a PM?)

becoming desensitized to the day to day micro aggressions, discrimination and ‘right on’ ignorance. this scares me. #blackatSR_reimagined

Bio: About to finish my first year (23y) in a few months and have 10k in a 401(k) plan and 28k in a checking account (I attribute living at home for most of my savings). I have 19k in private loans (5-6%) and 35k in federal loans (4-5%, 0% rn) from UG.

Question: Don’t know too much about investing outside of basics and unsure if nows a good time to invest based off my experience level but I want to maximize my savings. Also, my mom has a 8k loan at 7% as well as my own loans. Any advice?

Question for my fellow fish, thinking about buying a new home and putting 10% down instead of 20%. Only because I want to have some extra money laying around for new home items I’ll need. Then after 3-4 months of PMI my plan is to call and drop the other 10% in a big payment to remove PMI. Is this something I can do? I also think if I do 10% down instead of 20% I can get a lower rate as a first time home buyer.

Hi All, what is the process to claim for initial accommodation? Cant find any option in My HR. Also how much we can get. Is it full amount or only a portion of that.

Does anyone if there is anything legally a company can do to you if you don’t provide a two weeks notice when quitting? I’ve heard corporate talking about charging people for leaving without proper notice but this doesn’t sound legal.

Hello All,

I'm new here, and wanted to enable my DM feature. Can I get your likes. Thanks in advance

I live in constant fear that someone is going to nominate me for the black and white photo challenge thing and I’ll have to pretend I didn’t see it.

we just kicked off with a new client on Thursday and they are an *absolute nightmare* already. How do I not spend my Sunday dreading tomorrow?

EXTREME creative block the past week or so. We are coming up with launch ideas and I can’t seem to think of anything new. How can I get out of this rut and make my brain work again? Thanks ❤️

5 years ago I was an account intern with no book at a mediocre at best agency. No portfolio school. Today, I’m a writer at a top agency in NYC. Don’t let your dreams be dreams, friends!

I’ve been typecast as someone that gets the grunt work done. In reality, I’m more conceptual than most. I have a lot of tv experience, but I’m only asked to write Facebook posts. Should I quit?

Why does it feel like SO MANY people in the industry come from London or Australia? Been with a few agencies where there have been many from both locales. Is it just the thrill of NYC?

On the sexist air conditioning thing. I try to sympathize with the air being tuned to my level vs yours. But please also understand that I am covered in hair that I cannot take off and you are not.

I feel like I’m being set up for failure at my current position. Communication is non existent, I’m never given clear direction on anything, and process is so backwards (any attempts to fix it...(1/2)

I bought a chicken pot pie from a bakery and am going to pretend that I made it.

Got those “flying out Sunday night for a Monday morning meeting” blues ☹️

I forgot that today was Monday and accidentally waked and baked

Whenever I get an ACD or up to laugh at a comment or post on Fishbowl I feel like I’ve beaten the system.

Probably won't stress over presenting to clients after seeing Mark Zuckerberg's face testifying in front of Congress.

I always thought that, to be creative one has to suffer for your art. Inspiration would come from personal pain. I've always felt like an imposter as an artist... (Continued)
