Standing desks are a good option too...as well as taking walk breaks

Yes, definitely. If you have to be trapped at a desk, having a sit/stand option is incredible

Are you my bro? He had the same complaint, lol. Get up frequently. Find any excuse. Left your phone in the break room, need another sip of water, pretend like you’re waiting on something to print, etc.

Oh, gotcha - def misinterpreted that, lol. 100% agreed. I've been setting timers for myself to regularly move around, it's helped a lot.

If I was a junior on a team during a campaign launch, is that something I can put in my book? I helped during the concepting phase, was responsible for keeping the boards up to date, and wrote a lot of the supporting materials (print, social etc) but obviously I was not on the shoot or the lead on writing the script. As long as I’m clear about my role is that acceptable?

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
