When you dislike more than you like, that’s when you leave. That’s what I did and never looked back

I leave when I no longer want to wake up and go to work. And not it’s because I’m tired, or a project is taking it out of me. But when I physically and emotionally can’t bear the thought of rolling out of bed going to work. That’s when it’s time.

I look to leave at whatever percentage this is: you start to get that pit in your stomach feeling when you hear your email ping.

It changes by the day, but on average I like it 80% most days. I am not a terribly optimistic/ perky person, so that says a lot. Always leave when the bad days outweigh the good.

A red tidal wave on election night. Unfortunately, this is the 21st century and elections last for weeks now. Once again (just like 2020) races are slowly moving back to democrat control after Election Day. Are we surprised?
My takeaways-

1. People care more about abortions than the impending recession and inflation. Or at least they THINK they care more thanks to the media.

2. Desantis over Trump for 2024. Desantis has unmatched support. Trump politicians are still losing & so will he

During the VMAs last night there was a car commercial and all I have to say is that if your brand is picking a 5 year old Sia song that didn’t even chart too well as a song for a NEW commercial, you need to tap into culture a little bit.

I’m begging for a world where we stop using songs like this and Roar by Katy Perry as the standard backing tracks for boring ads.

Is anyone at a job they really, truly enjoy that also pays competitively (and has good benefits)? In my experience, I haven’t found anything that satisfies both.

Maybe it’s just the way this industry is?
