Greg Hahn kinda looks like a rock star 😊
Are you in advertising LPD?
Rising Star
Oh boy I know a commercial for Workday that you would fuckin LOVE
If not, who is going to battle all the “unicorns”?
I was constantly called a rockstar until I started asking for a raise instead of cute corpo pet names.
You’re such a change agent
Pro
I was a “rockstar” until I started setting boundaries and refusing to work 14 hour days. Now I’m just a regular old employee who doesn’t even get COL raises.
Same with the layoff! From rockstar to bottom-line cost cut when the merger happened.
I know, and it’s annoying. I had a recruiter use that term on me once, saying that an agency was looking for a rock star. I said I was busy, but try Keith Richard’s lol
keith richards worked as a planner for a year
It’s dated yes, but it’s not wrong. There are people who walk on water for various lengths of time and like the Pied Piper call the tune. Icarus’s maybe? 🤔
So my choice is “…or death”?
When someone uses words like rockstar or Swiss armyknife, a demon is born and an innocent puppy dies somewhere in the world
Pro
What’s wrong with Swiss Army knife? If you’re a writer who can do HCP, patient, launches, maintenance brands, and have a ton of experience across a bunch of categories, that’s kind did what you are. Especially if you’re Swiss, too.
I was let go in a mass firing some years back. I went from rock star to “I gotta rock” in no time.
I’ve worked with a couple of rockstars but no unicorns
Not unless they are very good ninjas who I never noticed. Great at hiding, missing when you need them.
Im a Rock Star.

I remember the chaos at the Clio Awards back in the day, when everyone rushed the stage in a clusterfuck frenzy. Ad people are some of the most bitter folks around, constantly griping about how everyone else is clueless and only they understand creativity. Meanwhile, they’ve been doing the same minimalism thing , chugging out the some tired product plastered on a white background with a sad, whimsical tagline for the last 30 years, all while endlessly complaining about everything. Just my two cents
I remember the next day at DDB Needham. Wonder how many people still have their blank trophy’s?
I know a former agency producer who has a pretty good rock career. Check out BEGINNERS
Have to agree there are actual rockstars hiding in our industry.
Does a “Rockstar” qualify as just a person who is creative , shows up on time , is decent and helpful to co-workers, and just does a good job at work.
Yeah not usually
Any starboys up in this biatch?

This guy is a creative, and a rock star, so…
Sorry, Lee Clow was a fucking rock star.
