I won so many awards when my bosses believed in me. I’ve won zero since my new bosses only believe in themselves.

None of my award winning work is my favorite work. maybe they just don’t care about that

So confused now. So you wish you had old bosses who helped you make work (that won awards) you’re not proud off?

I have been a designer for 30 years. Don’t give a damn about awards. I have 3 ADDYs and a couple print industry awards. I used to care, but I consider a good paycheck every week and clients that love me is all the “award” I need. Don’t get me wrong. When you get an award it feels good, but it’s not why I am in this profession. Awards don’t pay bills.

Really confused as to whether to incorporate my NY- based makeup startup as an LLC or an S-corp? Not based in NYC if that matters and no revenue yet. Should I be looking into Delaware at all (specifically a Delaware C-Corp) if I do plan on raising capital at some point down the line? Also - for any FDA lawyers out there, what is the problem with developing makeup (specifically foundations) with SPF? I've heard it's "heavily regulated." What do I need to be aware of? Thanks in advance !!

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated. I may or may not try to lock in a good rate early, but I'm planning on renting it out and this throws a bit if a wrench in my margins. I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?
