Im not full of great ideas right now, but I need some new challenges. Know that I’m lucky enough to have the autonomy that I can at least try to make things happen...If I make the time for it.

Anybody who lives in one state, but whose home office or major client is in another state? How does that work for tax purposes? As far as my weekly check goes, would state and local taxes go to my home state or the state where my main client is?

It makes no sense to me why front-load washers aren't constructed with more anchor points holding the wash basin on to the back, they always fail after a few years

Can you work from an alternate location (CA) which is not a part of the original approval (CO) during work from home?

Agile experts - can you explain why it’s better to provide story points / tshirt sizes than actual hours for user stories? I feel providing hours is significantly more accurate.

This question might anger some, but not meant to be provoking. Does anyone else feel that half the jobs in tech (scrum master, project manager, product manager, etc.) are more hindering than helpful? I feel like productivity would sky rocket if we didn’t have 10+ hours a week added of admin work/agile ceremonies/status meetings, and you just let developers and analysts do their job. Why are we spending hours learning how to estimate story points (for example) rather than improving production?

Hey everyone 😀

Looking to lateral into a fully remote ECVC role to have more flexibility to move closer to family and to hopefully have a better work life balance. However, I was told by my recruiter that Cooley, Gunderson, and Goodwin said they’re not offering remote roles in ECVC at this time. For some context, I’m class of 2019 coming from a V10 with M&A and CapM experience. Anyone hearing or seeing similar things? Curious if fully remote is no longer offered as much or if the ECVC market has slowed.

realizing how important it is for me to feel intellectually stimulated - if i can help with strategy, it helps, but otherwise not feeling it. any ideas? certain kind of client, move to strat, pivot?

So my supervisor over preschool was making site ‘visits’ last week. So the director was in my classroom not wearing a mask and was not practicing social distancing. What can I do(The director is not a person you can reason with. Talks down to the teachers)? Any advice?
Clarification: The reason for the site visit is that the ECE department is up for review this year and all admin are snapping at us for every little thing. Anything else then perfection is not acceptable.

Do you have a portfolio? And if so, what do you show in it to highlight your AM skills?

Famous last words? I’ll start: “The deck was built in InDesign.”

Okay account peeps, how do you handle a client who is not tech savvy, who is condescending on calls, tells you you are not being very helpful and to speak English when you use the word data?

How should I deal with an overly ambitious AAE who says yes to everything/creates extremely aggressive timelines?

I have to chew everything she bites off, and I'm tired of it.

Is it common to not have a process workflow for services your agency sells? For example, we’ve sold geofencing, strategy, and website build services without any documentation on how they should be executed so I had to start from scratch and figure out what happens, who is involved, when, and estimate how long it will take. I like project mgmt but I’m getting burned out from having to determine processes and feel like we should have something in place before we sell it. Is this common?

Sometimes it feels half my day is spent jumping through hoops to schedule and then reschedule meetings around senior managements’ calendars...only for them to be so late they miss the meeting anyways🙄

Any feedback/insight is greatly appreciated!!

Any good recruiters to reach out to in the Boston/New England area?

Our offices are closed though we're still in the service industry. I spent 1 hour last week and 1 hour today replying to minor asks and clients were so appreciative - their offices are open. I've build lasting client relationships doing this. There's a way to balance service expectations with boundaries. Noone else on the account even tried. Maybe the art of client service is dead. Thoughts?

Started a new position & noticed the team is struggling with a work/life balance & morale. While they are great people, it seems we do not work in a collaborative state which makes everything extremely unorganized. The team is absolutely swamped with back to back meetings, causing a lot of tension between one another. I am trying to minimize internal meetings to give everyone some time back & jump in to help as much as I can, but need advice on how to help boost morale on work/life balance. Thx!

Interviewing for an account executive position at a marketing agency and they are asking for a salary range following my initial interview. I was making $62k at my last job which seemed severely underpaid, especially in Los Angeles. I would be fine with $85k but would definitely be more comfortable with around $92k. Does anyone have insight of what the best response of a salary range would be?

I don’t want to under ask but I don’t want to lose the opportunity by asking for too much.
