Sure.

You can cut a TVC ad down into a social one, but you can’t as easily boost the technical quality of a social ad to be able to run it as a TVC. It still sucks that your budget got slashed, regardless.

Isn't this the best news ever? Who the fuck cares about the social budget?

We had a client request 10 spots. Somewhere along in the production process they remembered to of course mention they were in fact social first.

I mean that is a budget issue

I’ve been working for a small investment firm for about a year and am having some issues with my boss. We have a weekly check-in but he’s ALWAYS 2-3 hours late, or skips the meeting altogether without warning. He also never replies to any of the emails I send. I already spoke with him about these issues, but things haven’t really changed. I really like the work I do but I’m starting to feel frustrated about the situation. Any advice? Or anyone else in a similar situation?

I’m a designer in the planning/landscape architecture dept. of a CE firm. Extremely frustrated that after 4+ years and multiple asks, I’m not getting the in-field construction experience I’ve asked for. I know that my designs could be better if I could see how things are actually built but I get slapped in the face with “I need you in the office designing/drafting” or “there’s no budget to have you go out” and then sends an intern to inspect instead. I’m 5 yrs out of college. Any advice?
