My team is overworked beyond measure. It was always tight, but in the last month it’s become even worse. The big frustration is that we see other teams getting more staff while we are told we can’t because of resources. How would you tackle this conversation with leadership? I’ve presented the challenges and the issues that are to come. We really can’t afford to lose anyone but that’s the direction they are pushing us I.

Thoughts?

Living in NJ and may be able to choose NYC as my home office. People who live in NJ can choose NJ / NYC office, which one did you choose?

NJ office: no NYC tax, don't have to file 2 state return. Live in NJ so auto assigned to NJ office currently.

NYC office: NYC tax on paycheck, easier commute, possibly higher pay?

When you’re asked about your rate, do you include weekend / holiday rates upfront? Or do you wait until it comes up after you’ve started? New to this, so please be kind.

Does anyone else on the client services side often wonder how they ended up at an ad agency?

For all you retail people...are you experiencing a very slow holiday season? I am a retail manager and I feel like this season has been freakishly slow. I thought we would at least match last year's number or be up a little bit but we are trending down. I talked to employees of other stores in the mall and they are saying the same thing. Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?

African American 🐟 - why do I feel so annoyed when I hear “black” ads on the radio? With the sassy female leads and the urban slang and such. Feels so forced and wack. Just me?

The marketing for Black Adam is genius! I wish I was in entertainment. If you could choose one industry to do marketing for what would it be? For me it's easily film or games.

Dear Nappily Ever After,
No one has an office, much less an assistant. Creative and account are different jobs with their own dress codes. But dumb, off brief ideas by white creatives do win.

How correct is the term “African American"?
What about black people from Haiti, Caribbean, etc.

Is it about where people are indigenous to?

Not all Black Americans are African American,
right?
