Omnicom has decided we’ll do 50% work from home. So we’ve been told to stagger accounts per day. It’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard and obviously voids the whole idea.

At our office they literally said we’re not even going to do the 50/50 rule, we’re going to just stay open.

Ogilvy is still open for business

Just because you work from home / the office closes doesn’t mean it’s not open for business.

So are you not shopping, getting gas, or going to any businesses? I sincerely want to know why should Ad agencies be named and shamed if public transit employees, grocery store workers, gas station employees, etc have to go in?

Could you imagine working at a gas station and someone who tests positive and doesn’t wash their hands gives you money? I think they have more of a right to be home than us.

Let us all relax. Shaming agencies or individuals is not positive behavior.

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
