I went to a vendor event last night and was the only creative out of about 100 people. 😴It was painful to make small talk. I can say w 100% certainty, creatives make this industry more interesting, fun and vibrant. And we are getting pushed out, ignored, flushed. This is a PSA to say, hire a creative today. 🚀🥜

You went to a vendor event to have fun?

likefunny

Any fun I’ve had at vendor events has been due to work friends who went. To your point, being there with your friends or at least peers with similar interests helps, but I’ve never found vendor events on their own to be much fun.

But what vendor was it? A MEDIA vendor??

Well usually the people who work at the networks / media platforms are the majority of people at media events; outside of the media agency people of course. So makes sense not a lot of creatives there.

Interviewed for a GS-15 (same agency but different office) and totally aced the interview with excellent answers. They know I’m a top performer with senior references.
