Losing it! Can’t sit on the sidelines anymore! Which people and what agencies/organizations need art.d/dsgn help for environmental or political clients/causes? World is imploding. Not a debate thread*

I had the weirdest dream. Criminals were put in a gated community under observation and they had to successfully fake their own death to get out. They were given too many drugs and alcohol. But they end up killing each other or suiciding and no one is left. Once everyone kills themselves they bring in new inmates. It was insane.

My brain needs a rehab now. 🥺

Edit: how do I sell this idea to Netflix? Even though it’s bizarre.

Anyone successfully take STD or extended long term disability for final IVF procedure? I’d like to take 6 months, Destress before hand then go into extraction. Docs say if this doesn’t work they recommend I move onto other options so I want to give it a fair shot. My clinic will fill out fMLA / medical forms but not sure who ultimately decides the duration. Should I also consider other mental health leave alternatives? Thank you!

I'm trying to think of a good present for my physics instructor who's retiring at the end of the year, any ideas?

I’m going to lose my marriage if I stay in my current job.

I can’t quit because I’m the only income on the house.

I don’t have a new job yet.

Hard times.

Scenerio: Its Friday. You're working on a crazy detailed RFP and you're so close to finishing the $$$ part and the office internet DIES. Do you:
A) tether to your phone and get 'it dun
B) go for beer

Who here is willing to turn on networking for the next 2 hours?? People want to see their options in this bowl! You can then quietly go back into the shadows.

The bond yield curve just inverted. If you don’t have to make any major purchases for the next year, that’s probably a good thing

I am leaving my comfortable uninspiring job and taking a risk without next job lined up. Idiot or smart?

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.

Thanks to the robots, there’s just not a lot left to do.

So why do we still have to spend all our waking time playing office?

I promise you, whatever you have to tell me as I sit down with my lunch is not as important as eating my lunch.

I want to quit and give myself a couple months to find a new job and enjoy my life. Someone told me I need to approach my reason for leaving sensitively as I don't want to ruin my connections and references. Any tips?
How do I put in my notice with no new job offer without coming out and saying "this place no longer fulfills me and I want to be able to breath for a couple months when I search for something new" ?

ACDs: What do you add to your book when you’re managing/providing oversight vs. actually writing?

I had to reject an offer from a company last year due to COVID concerns and not being able to relocate. Would it be a bad idea to reach out and inquire about it again?

Omar from the wire in that W + K spot for the Atlantic. Well done 👏🏽

With the way this week has been going, Friday 13th with a harvest moon seems downright dangerous 🌚 halp

Bookish fish! What’s the best book on leadership you’ve read? Particularly creative leadership.

So, I’ve received a written offer, but it’s contingent on a background/reference check, I’m fine w/ that, but I don’t want the new place to contact my current employer. Does the below mean they can?

Going in house is the move, right?

Interviewing now, chances of being hired before the new year?

Has anyone received a job offer after being initially ghosted by recruiter? How long did you not hear from them? Feeling down after not hearing anything for 2 weeks after a round of seemingly promising interviews.
