Looking for advice please . I’m currently a senior planner at holdco in Canada eyeing a media Manager promo very soon. I have a business degree from back home, but 0 name recognition here.

I’m relatively new to Canada, I’m considering a part-time MBA to build a network and eventually pivot client-side. Program is top 10 in Canada and only costs $10k, so it would have great ROI

Is the local credential and network worth the grind, or the industry only cares about agency experience?
Thanks

This one is going to make some of y’all mad, but it’s so annoyingly unnecessary. The most irritating part is “is it a shirt day or a skirt day”…. Like women don’t wear shirts with skirts and men don’t wear shirts with pants. Shirts and skirts are not mutually exclusive. I’ll just leave this here.

Poll on general attitudes towards open relationships? I’m in one and find that some folks are totally non-judgmental about it, while others are so vicious/rude about it. Curious about your opinions! I understand that every open relationship is different, and each couple defines their own arrangement/rules. For context, ours is a passive one that’s hardly acted on, but we both have Grindr and meet guys for fun on the very odd occasion (whether together or apart). If you’re in one, describe yours!
