One of my friends who also works in Props told me that due to the tight prep before filming begins- their lunch break has been cut in half so that they can get more work done! What do you guys think about this?

Just think how much more work they could get done with NO lunch break! 😭 Like, where does it end? Tight timelines are a constant. You still have to figure out how to reasonably work around them.

There have been times when I was expected to work A LOT, and you know what that got me? More work. It’s just never-ending, and I know sometimes things happen, but no reason to make everyone else have to suffer for it.

That sounds like an idea that someone who's immersed in spreadsheets and not the real world came up with. That little bit of extra time won't help any, and it'll just get people ticked off and less motivated. And depending on the scenario, it could lead to a problem with the union. Yep, dumb idea.

Yes in the UK we’re not unionised so we have to fend off for ourselves! They should’ve been more organised with their time and delegation, the people working for them shouldn’t have to suffer.

I worked for a company for years where we only had 30 minutes for lunch- so 8am to 5pm with a short lunch. The tradeoff was we only worked to 2pm on Fridays. I actually really liked it because I could schedule appointments or run errands after work on Friday without having to use PTO. If there's no tradeoff though, then it's crap.

Feeling really overwhelmed and wondering if anyone else has struggled with something similar: I’ve been with the same company for about three years and I feel like it’s time for a change of pace. Poked around on LinkedIn and there wasn’t a single listing I was interested in that I felt genuinely qualified for. Did I somehow fall behind or does everyone just have unrealistic expectations?

Senior revving up to manager promo. Only nervous about one thing at the manager level which is having to answer pointed “Why??” questions from higher up clients on live calls. Any one else work through something like this? I’d appreciate any tips or suggestions as I really suck at dealing with unexpected push back.

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!

I once asked a colleague at a radio company how much he's paid monthly, and he outright refused to tell me. In fact, he found it very odd that I asked. I later learned that he was making double my salary. I know it's not an employee's job to fix pay inequity by sharing their salary figures, but I'm still of the opinion that it helps uncover pay gaps. But do you think it's wise to do so at the risk of damaging your work environment or the whole thing backfiring on you? Thoughts are welcome.
