is it just me or does every job this month have 22 versions with 180 deliverables and they’re expected to deliver in 2 days. What is happening?

Don’t forget the additional 50 deliverables they asked for in a middle-of-the-night email to just one team member who didn’t relay it to anyone else until everything else was delivered 🙃

The number of matrices and spreadsheets I have to create to track this would make even an accountant weak in the knees.

Clients don’t want to pay for ad-IDs because they’re “digital”. I end up with “My Ad” cut as a :30, :15, and :06...sized for vertical, square, and standard 16x9...with hero endcard and three different offers...slated and unslated...each with multiple file outputs to accommodate whatever media buy or DAM system it has to be uploaded to. None of which is easy to track because there’s no ISCI assigned! And I try and pile all the info onto the slate to be as prescriptive as possible. But alas, clients find slates annoying, as for unslated and then run the spot sized for some banner ad on their Hulu buy and wonder why it gets kicked back.

I used to allow for a half day to prep files for delivery and then a full day to ship spots but now that’s turning into 3-4 days and clients aren’t happy with it/won’t pay. I hate delivery day because I know it’s going to start at 9am and not be over until midnight.

Formats are sized at picture lock phase against the different spots. This has helped with all the deliverables that bottleneck at the end…

This is the new reality. Not just this
Month but forever and always. The world
Is changing and excel spreadsheets are your new most important work tool.

I am interviewing with a company. Last week, one week after the interview, my hiring manager reached out to me with a couple of clarifying questions. We talked then I sent him recommendation letters from my previous employers. He said that I should have an answer from them this week whether I get an offer or not. I haven’t heard back since and yesterday I reached out to the recruiter to get some status updates. She has not responded. It’s already Friday. Is it a bad sign or am I overthinking?

I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out
