Ladies, did you put on make up before your delivery for photo purposes?

Curious what niche fields you all are aware of. I started my practice a few months ago, focusing on business lit and transactions. I’ve had success, but I feel like I need to zero in on a specialty and direct my marketing that way. So I’m just curious what niche fields are out there. Thoughts?

Is racial attraction really a thing? I knew some gay guys who would fool around with very old guys of his own race and not fool around with younger attractive guys of certain race. How to interpret this?

One of the worst parental insurance plans. 30% co-pay and that too on such high premium.

I am interested in learning data science and excel in that path. Please let me know any opportunities.

Looking for input on changing positions from a Buyer to an International Logistics Coordinator. I have international freight experience and have a potential opportunity. Financially, the move makes a lot of sense. Would this be good for career trajectory? For context, I have been a buyer for several years and this is my first 'real' job, so pretty early in my career.

So I chose an offer for Deloitte India over Infosys as a Node.js developer. Joining next week. But most of the time when people praise Deloitte they mean USI so I have been of two minds and wondering if I made the right decision.

What are your thoughts on how TikTok is shaping the workplace?

I’ve seen quite a few people online talk about how digital marketing is dying or on its way out because of AI and other automation tactics. Is any of that true, or are people just overreacting?

If you got fired tomorrow, how long can you go without a paycheck? Assume you get 1 week of pay for every 6 months worked, and then can do unemployment after that ($425 a week)

I like Dan Levy quite a bit, but I just saw him in ads for three different brands during the same TV show.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.

I’m a strategist interested in branding shops like interbrand. But I hear they aren’t doing well these days since everyone claims to be a brand consultant. Also I’m curious about the work

What’s the difference between DDB and DDB Adam & eve?

Chicago folks - favorite creative agency? Looking to make a move.

Going away this weekend. Didn’t tell my boss until they emailed us expecting weekend work. I told them that I can try to work when I can and not sure how bad the WiFi is gonna be. They replied with saying that it’s okay, and that they’ve been working with shitty WiFi while out of town. Idk how to feel about that. Kind of rubbed me the wrong way. I’m not trying to be a jerk. Has this happened to you during quarantine?

What in the world is this old spice YouTube thing ?

You ever have one of those days where nothing is going your way, and then you buy some ice cream to bring home, and then the ice cream falls on the floor?

Got laid off. Just started at the agency. Was so excited because it’s a great shop. Now what?

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

Why do some art directors only really start looking at stuff at the 11th hour? Thus forcing people to stay late on the Friday of a 3 day weekend.

Any great resume-writer recos? I need help!

What’s the threshold of overkill for the number of people you think a candidate should meet with? Over 2.5 mos, I’ve met with 8 people, not including 6+ calls with the SVP in prep, checking in, etc. Role hasn’t changed and I was previously at the agency for two years, so know a number of people already. The hoops are starting to turn me off on a role that would be a great career opportunity.
