Is the Slack desktop application (on the Microsoft store) worth using? I only have one client using it, and the app doesn’t have great reviews—I wonder if I should stick with the browser.

I use the Mac version like a real creative (just kidding, sort of), but it’s fine. I have too many tabs open to deal with web versions of things like Slack.

Okay I take it back, you’re definitely a real creative. Sorry you got stuck with a PC!

I dunno if this is what you’re talking about, but the Slack app on the Windows Store acts just like the one on macos. Maybe the reviewers just hate Slack?

Very possible.

Or they hate Windows, like me (and most people I know).

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

I’ve been asked by a client to coach their team on how to structure and write scripts for their corporate event content (e.g. panel discussions). I’ve happily had a crack at helping them but it’s a bit out of my wheelhouse - is this ask something that would ordinarily be given to an agency copywriter? Or would it usually be something a content or speech writer would do?
Either way, I’m happy to add the additional skill to my CV 😅

I’ve been working at a rather prestigious midsized firm in a big city for almost a year and a half now. I have been having a lot of trouble picking up work from senior partners.

It seems like the senior partners already have their “go to” associate for things. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i can increase my workload? I reach out for work pretty much weekly.
