Daycare recommendation in Ashburn for a 2 year old?

How did you meet your closest friends in Atlanta?

I'm working at a startup where I feel like I've spent as much time trying to deal with product issues vs working on roadmap items. I get this is bound to happen in a start up but is this common? I'm not sure what to do. It seems like no one really thought about the architecture or ux as much as they should have in my opinion. I need some advice.

Hi folks! If I quit this week, will I still get my bonus? (My LWD will be around September 26-27)

For those of you interested in furthering your education in CSR, here are some programs I’ve found (links below):

A creative team I started working with recently has decided to ignore my every comment. They take feedback from anyone else but me, and whenever I push them to make said changes, they just pick fights and make snarky comments. Anyone have any idea why this might be?

How does a new campus hire best set themselves up for GSAP success?

Has anyone taken the SASB FSA exams? Any advice?

Let's talk unhinged pro se opposing parties. We have one that emails the entire firm every few days with these SCREEDS that are like weird stream of consciousness accusations of baseless criminal and unethical conduct. So far there have been 2 emails already today. A GAL has been appointed and ordered to do a psych eval on this party, but is there any sense in responding in the mean time? Everything we say seems to get twisted.

I’ve moved around within the bank a few times but I’m just not happy here nor am I where I want to be in terms of comp .

They sucked me in when they said it would be a FA role but we don’t do any modeling, forecasting, etc.. Any advice/suggest/rec’s much apprecia

Last week, a partner asked for nitty gritty details on some analysis. I warned him it may be TOO much detail but reluctantly obliged, only to be told today in feedback that I'm "too in the weeds." WTF

Do you feel, as members of our community in advertising (a privilege we share in having a voice in media but also cultural persuasion) that you should lean into brands taking advantage of the opportunity to capitalize on our community or steer them away from that but also refocus their minds to a more long term diverse creative solution?

What brands do Pride right? Any favorite campaigns come to mind? Or on the flip side, any campaigns you dislike for being tone-deaf or performative?

Happy Gay New Year!!!

Eurovision!

It’s that time when pride briefs are rolling across our desks. We should collectively write a guide on pride campaigns, what to do and what not to do. Anyone want to share their advice?

Just wanted to say, as a guy in my mid-20’s, cheers to all the 30-40+ y/o LGBTQIA+ folks here—I know we roll our eyes at the performative rainbows on everything now, but you folks made this possible for the rest of us—you fought for acceptance, for our rights, and you made it through the struggle so people my age don’t have the same weight to carry, so we don’t have to be as afraid.
We have a long way to go, and I’ll carry the torch too, but I really think y’all deserve more gratitude. Happy 🏳️‍🌈

Looking to join a running club for LGBTQ folk or other agency folk. Is that a thing? NYC by the way.

Anybody know of great head hunters for Art Directors who are looking to branch out from Pharma Advertising??

Hmm... our clients just paused ads on Teen Vogue due to homophobic tweets by the outlet's new editor-in-chief, Alexi McCammond.

Had an associate of mine recently confront me and say he has a crush on me. Told him nope and that would be very unprofessional. He has reassured me that this won’t impact our working dynamic but lately there’s been a lot of pushback on any direction given to him or the team. I’m growing concerned he is holding something against me.

How should I approach this?

Does anybody know what the tolerance + LGBTQ+ culture is like at Home Depot corporate in Atlanta?
