...painful to show work I know isn't there. When you accept a lower title gig you accept your position on the agency food chain, and who they put you with. Enduring that pain becomes the work. Not the actual work.
Telling the CD is not my style (because that makes my problem his problem, and only babies do that).
Have you been in this situation? How did you handle it?
At the time I was under 40 and I was FT and the bad AD was freelance. I’ve never freelanced full time so I can only imagine the different pressures. I went to my
CD and was like this partnership doesn’t work for me, he’s an idiot. Which honestly I can’t believe I did because I was new. But I knew that particular boss would get it and there was another FT AD without a partner. So they swapped the two freelancers to be together and but me and the other FT AD together. I did not get fired. I guess if this is just a short-term gig and you have other work it might be worth saying something depending on the CD?
@CD1 thanks for sharing your happy story. Wonderful. Unfortunately I am a new freelancer and he has freelanced there for years. So I have zero cred. It is only officially a few more weeks, but it's the kind of agency that keeps you.
