That garbage is more unsightly than the Brooklyn construction wall it’s pasted on.

It’s pretty obvious that it has TERRIBLE client written all over it…or in-house… which is basically the same.

Hey yo! I’m postin’ here!

I been seein’ dis kinda copy on outta home ads in da subway since before all you art school pussies eva started payin’ 5 grand a month for a friggin’ walkup in Bed-Stuy!

It’s always friggin’ authentic and relatable! Neva played-out! Fagidabodit!

“bec” feels like the quickest indicator that it’s not written by people who actually live in nyc

I like the original idea tbh, but these lines aren’t it.

Every water is from some fantastical place. Fiji, Iceland, Poland Spring— but Vitamin Water is from New York.

Think the lines are too distilled.

Back when I was primarily doing copywriting, I had a particular client who would take the structure of my idea and then change it to make it more "them." Complete with poor grammar and typos. I went to great lengths to make sure my name was never attached to their final products. This ad reminds me A LOT of working with them.

Any tips on how to improve lining thickness? My RE had me on Estrace for a week before starting Prometrium (vaginally) a few days ago, but my lining is only a little above 5mm. Looks likely that this FET cycle is going to get canceled (was potentially going to be this weekend) since the lining doesn’t seem to be thick enough. This will be the 3rd transfer cycle that’s getting canceled, it just really sucks...what’s worse is I didn’t see my doctor today, just the sono tech, (cont’d)

Okay, so I have pretty bad cystic acne, clogged pores and enlarged pores. I’ve been using curology and a mild dermatologist recommended soap. I have seen some improvement, however I was curious if anyone was struggling with it and has tried the “Flo Vitamin gummy’s “ on top of my fertility struggle this really has kinda killed my confidence. I know it’s not specifically fertility related but Was hoping to get some feedback on similar situations

Confused between Deloitte USI and Cognizant
YOE: 3.4
Current role: Consultant/Lead BA
CTC: 10.85 fixed +1.6 var

Deloitte's offer: 14 fixed +10% var + 1.5 JB
Role: Healthcare Consultant/BA

Cognizant's offer: 18 fixed +1 var
Same role

Haven't yet talked to Deloitte about counter offer, curious how much will they counter this with.

I wanna join Big4, but the difference in package is too much to just ignore.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
