Is anyone working solo without a partner? How is it like? I keep getting paired with a copy who isn't very good, and honestly, I often find brainstorming with ChatGPT to be more effective.

It's been working alright for me as a writer. Once my ideas and scripts move forward, an AD is more than happy to help throw together some key visuals. I'd love to have a solid partnership, but at this point, I'm actually doing alright on my own and can be picky about who I want to partner with next.

I think we’re in an interesting time on how ai can help both writers and art directors. I was in the same boat. Had a few different partners that just didn’t have the same work ethic or wanted to do the path of least resistance/not do unexpected things. Had another that just over complicated everything, would write like 7 paragraphs for something that could be articulated in a single sentence and it drove me crazy. Another partner just didn’t work and it caused me to have to learn how to do it without a writer. Awful experience lol. But it taught me a lot. Then I was matched with someone and we were a great fit. I learned a lot from them and it made me a better creative. Depending where you’re at in your career you learn a lot of lessons in your partnerships. If you’re at the point where you know exactly what you want and who you’d work well with, it honestly could be beneficial to try it alone and learn how to do it that way right now until you find someone that’s a good match.

Did a first interview with hr rep, went very well. she set up the hiring manager meeting for a few days later. Met with the manager. Another great conversation, went over time and was told I’d hear back about panel set up. Following day I get a request from hr rep to “continue the conversation” with manager. This is set up Tuesday.
Why do you think the manager wants to meet again? Good? Bad? I felt great about the interview when we ended.

I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.
