think about what your objective for going there is and remember to stick to it. there will be parties, celebs, free shit, and creepy dudes. but there will also be good talks and opportunities to meet potential colleagues. have fun and all

Spend time on the talks and categories where you think you will learn something. Sign up for the Google and Meta beaches to see the latest in AI and creator work. There are a ton of nice bistros in the old town and the blocks behind the croisette. You can eat well without paying top dollar. And the Gutter Bar still slaps as a late night venue.

The fancy events are all for CMOs and the invites are calibrated by their marketing budgets so that's not your world.

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience. Understanding that the degreed person committed to school and finished, yet that doesn't diminish what the not degreed has committed to and accomplished in their careers. This has to stop!

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.
