I broke up with my EX mainly because the relationship with my child and her was not the best, it sucks but I have to look out for my child, So far I am able to do the things I can do now. It is not the I am not Hoeing around but the simply fact that I can hang out with friends and go watch my son play baseball is a great feeling now. I feel at peace now, in somewhat of pain because of the breakup but I am at peace now.

I am an IT architect with 10 years of experience specifically in Salesforce products. I am thinking of moving from a strategy consulting role to an architecture role in Salesforce (company) itself. I have experience building tech strategies and also technical project delivery.

Wondering if it makes sense to apply for an Enterprise Architect (pre-sales) or a Senior Technical Architect role??

Also in terms of seniority and salary are these roles any different?

Do you feel like turnover has now diminished after this busy season or will it kick up again as we approach the next one?

At this point, I'm wondering if most firms have hired enough people or they are still on the lookout due to shortage.

My agency is making salary cut backs cause of covid-19. Whole agency at 80%. Because I'm on a junior salary in Manchester that means 80% is less than minimum wage. Do I have any rights?

Hi there—have an interview this Friday and it’s been a while since I’ve had one in person. What’s standard these days? Is it expected to have a trimmed down deck with your work or is it okay to walk through your site? Thanks in advance!

Trying to refresh my portfolio and thinking about switching to a different platform, what are my fellow copywriters’ fave sites to use?? I’m currently using wix since it’s free, but it’s given me many headaches trying to get it how I want my portfolio to look. I’m also looking into Copyfolio as well.

Q: I’m reworking/updating my books— how are you going to include toolkit for other markets in your book? (Want to sell my contribution For concept and art direction+design in collaterals)

What do you think is the best site to make your book on as a copywriter?

Can you put spec work in your book?

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”

So I know this will sound crazy ... but I've never really had to have a portfolio, in the conventional sense, but a current offer is asking for one. What's the best way to build one out? Thanks!
