I'm an Art Director looking to make the switch to copywriting. Book180 is out of reach.

I'm currently laid off and even though I'm considering copywriting, I'm still on the fence about professional creative pursuits in general. My last role left me very burned out and empty. On top of that, what are your thoughts about the longevity of creative roles at agencies? Is this a stable career choice? I know layoffs are common, but will AI take over copywriting?

What is the best way to get SHRM certified. I have my associates in business administration.

Hi. People Manager here. I've been one for 12 years now and I encourage my team to not be "yes" people. At this time, it feels like my manager wants me and my team to be yes people for her. How do I deal with this? I've never been a yes person and I don't preach this to my reports. I don't know what to do. Help?

I am a career changer on mo 4 of a 6 mo sourcer/researcher contract that I’m not sure will be renewed due to team re-organizing. I have 5 YOE basically in an HR generalist role at a company that didn’t have an official HR function, building systems from the ground up. I also have my SHRM-CP. I am looking for a perm, remote HR generalist or program manager position and getting no traction despite a well-reviewed resume. What do I do? Should I go to grad school?

Looking for information on strategic planning. Looking for possible change but want to hear from current folks. Thoughts, ideas, pitfalls…

Does anyone have any advice on requesting data from municipalities (beyond just a foia request)? Working on a startup idea related to infrastructure but will need to get municipalities to give me extracts from their land use databases.

Hi All,

I submitted my resume in Accenture portal 3 months back and now I got shortlisted for interview.

Thanks,

Is it legal to collect the rent in a separate LLC even though rental property is not owned by the same LLC?

Any good recommended books on how to build a scalable product and team? I'm looking for recommendations for two areas: 1) in general laying the groundwork in a startup to have the tools and especially processes in place to scale, and 2) tactical focus on building a SaaS project. I've been promoted into a management role from Dev roots, so need to learn more PM processes to be an effective manager in day job, plus would like to start building my own SaaS solution.

When I go client side, I will demand that all decks sent to me MUST use Goudy Stout font at all times

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

The bond yield curve just inverted. If you don’t have to make any major purchases for the next year, that’s probably a good thing

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

Don’t ask me why but would anyone know where I could download McDonald’s font? Preferably for free... I think it’s called Speedee? I can’t find it anywhere... help

In NYC going from Junior CW to Mid at same agency. Currently making 72k. How much to shoot for?

Are Droga or Anomaly open to sponsoring work visas for mid-senior folks outside of the US?

Did anyone else 'fishbowl' cars in high school?

Didn’t know who the CCO is when I was asked about it in an interview... is there anything I can do to redeem myself? I feel like I really dropped the ball on this lol

Manager texted me at ~10pm asking for a non-critical update. I chose not to respond (until morning) because I don't want to allow a bad habit to form. Thoughts?

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.

Are there any solid recruiters in SF?

Having the clients love an idea you had to fight to present is a bittersweet win- you feel validated, but also wish your team backed you from the start...anyone else experience this?

What’s the worst advice you’ve ever gotten in this business?

Mine, as an account person: “You should take more credit for the creative that’s presented.”

Anyone from MediaCom on here?

Is anyone else having trouble just BEING back at the office… for a full day? Even if it’s hybrid. It’s like driving me insane just sitting here in silence and making small talk from 9-5:30. I feel so trapped.

How much of your job is actually solving a business problem with creativity, and how much of it is just providing corporate self care to wealthy clients who hate you?

Hi friends, I am reading this book ‘radical cander’ and was wondering if you have Fav way/ example of receiving and giving tough feedback? Or have any stories about feedback that have stuck with you through your career.

What do you put in your timesheet after a day of staring at your computer? We all have days that are less than productive, right? Speaking as a creative, anyway.
