My CD at our latest creative review:

My GF and I are dating for 2.5 yrs , She met an office colleague (he has a GF) recently who she initiated a friendship with. I feel that they interact a lot and I'm a little worried of her getting too close to him. A day ago she asked him for lunch and they were out for almost 4-5 hrs. When I expressed how I felt she keeps saying there's nothing going on. I feel that when start to get emotionally close to some other guy than SO then it's not a good sign in relationship. Am I overthinking? contd.

Anyone going to play AMZN earnings? It’s hard to say if we will still have low expectations this quarter but have to think AWS has done real well this quarter. It’s probably too early to tell how much WMT + is stealing business. The wild card is if they announce stock split.

What’s the strangest / most unexpected FDD exit you’ve heard of?

Hello folks, need likes for enabling DMs. Help is greatly appreciated!

Any thoughts on Laundry Service?

I work in a women's health clinic- "Dense" brease tissue has become a hot topic for our patients! I
feel like it comes up multiple times weekly!

I hate that I feel sad I’ve never had my work enter for awards. My feed is flooded with everyone’s success. Should this define me? Why do I care so much when there are bigger problems in the world?

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.

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.

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

Where are all the proper ACDs at? Either it's senior/mid creatives who have been promoted too early or ACDs who did the job for a year and are now freelancing as creative directors.

Serious question - which one lasts longer: real Donald Trump or Marcel?

Do you guys use stock music sites for clients with no budget? How do you sway them to use original tracks, even for social?

YunoJuno. Any jr/mid creatives use it? Good experiences? Worth it?
