I look forward to the comments from this group turning drunker, and therefore darker, in the second half.

So, what happens if you miss your utilization/billable hour target by like 70-150 hours? Tons of "impactful" PRD work

Why in EY GDS orientation, they are calling Gurgaon people to office on the second day?

Can I join the EY GDS session virtually on the second day also as currently I am not in the base location?

For laptop also I've opted to be couriered.

Will there any issue if I join virtually on the second day for Gurgaon location?

I’ve been negotiating a settlement on behalf of a client. OP is a major corp. we’ve gone back and forth for months, almost a year. Finally came to a final agreement and we’re reviewing for final signature. Then client is reviewing and decides they want something else modified. It’s a point of contention. OP has said no. Should I communicate this to client before pushing back against OP’s rejection of the mod?

Science & Democracy... Thoughts?

Why does Newark close tsa pre lanes? Terrible

Deal Lingo - I’ve seen a “Book of Banking Jargon” from L&Ws. Is there one out there for M&A? Also does anyone really know what dupe/duped means?! I use it not fully understanding it’s meaning. (Junior Tag)

Burrow vs Chiefs or Fields vs Packers?

Anyone have or know of any fully remote opportunities? Assurance/Advisory preferred. I’m an experienced staff in assurance for context. Would love to connect if you can help me out. TIA

Do areteans allow their employees to work remotely

What are some Phlebotomist salaries in the Atlanta GA area?

Hi all,

What do you think is a bare minimum CTC required to sustain a good married life considering life in a metro city. I do earn about 15LPA. So how much should. I look for in a guy?

What account(s) is everyone on?

Any recommendations to avoid feeling sleep towards the end of the work day? 3-5 PM I start doing the famous head bob if you know what I mean 🤣

How many of you biglaw associates are on your grind trying to recruit people to earn a big referral bonus? I’m treating it like a side gig. Ironic that my firm does not give associates any kind of origination credit. If they took the same philosophy with business development, I would direct my efforts there too.!

What are people’s experiences with SSRIs/did they help you with work?

Google spot just killed me 😢

We’ve all said “I wish I’d done that ad.” Which SB ad do you wish was your idea?

I’m beginning to think all the 2020 SB briefs started with... “we need a big personality to represent our brand.” Since when is celebrity a substitute for concept?🤔

Groundhog Day wins it for me. Perfect cultural reference to fit the message and a lovely execution.

Thank you all for the Super Bowl Bowl!

Eh. I’ve seen that Kia ad many times before. Plus trying to connect it to auto seemed pretty forced 🤷🏻‍♀️

The only qualifier to becoming an industry legend should be whether or not you’ve worked with Sam Elliot. Nay, his mustache. Prove me wrong.

Was anyone else expecting the Tide 'later' guy to show-up in the P&G ad? Missed opportunity? Or too expected?

CELEBRITIES ARE NOT A CONCEPT

That was fun by Audi. Love the choice of song.

That snickers commercial was amazing so far my fav. We should feed the world a snickers

New York Life. Beautiful.

Gary Vee took credit for that baby nut commercial on Twitter. Love me some Gary Vee but not so much Baby Nut.

Seems like “the button” is back as an advertising device. Been absent for a while but coming back in force this year.

On another time, a younger me would have loved the Porsche Heist ad. Now, however, the concept just feels dated (and a bit lite for Porsche). Fun to shoot tho. Am I the only one?

I hate ketchup but somehow that Heinz ad is my favorite so far.

I’m already sick of Joe Buck.

thanks to all the CCOs & ECDs for putting up with our shit and sarcasm - we wouldnt have been posting if it wasnt for you posting openly ✌️

Smarht Parhk? Nice .

BEST: Jeep
WORST: Michelob (wtf?)
MISSED OP: Olay
