Pro tip: If you have a name that seems too “ethnic” or “foreign” to white Americans, change it on your LinkedIn when you are looking, then change it back to your preferred name once they hire you. Barack Obama did this early in his career (he went by “Barry Obama”). It sucks and is unfair, but this increases the chance of being hired.

Anyone else absolutely in love with the Corvette C8? What do you think the depreciation will be on them - wondering if it might be smart to wait a year or three and buy used.

Need your help/advice! I was rear ended & gave my car to the body shop. The lift gate needs to be replaced. It's been 9 weeks and they have not yet received the part. They don't know when they'll get it in. Additionally, they mentioned that they ordered the part with my VIN & they received the wrong part. (How?) Now they're like we've called xyz vendors and none of them have the part. Is it just me, or are they lying? And their response to follow up is we will keep checking...continue..

How to access Nagarro mails on mobiles? Any specific application we need to download?

I’m currently a third year in my small firm’s life sciences team. I’m not really stimulated by the work and although they say they have a lot of work, they’re not good at managing workload. I haven’t had much work on my plate even after asking many times for more than six months. I’m ready to move to a larger law firm. However, I am concerned how I’ll manage the workload as a mom to a toddler. The good thing about my firm is that they’re flexible with hours. Anyone have experience balancing?

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.

Is everyone from a big city or do we have some south and midwest represented??

Hey, so I’m going to my first 3% conference. I heard it’s usually white feminism x 100. But I was wondering what I should expect? Has anyone been.

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?

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.

Anybody struggle with imposter syndrome as a minority? How and why? Need some coping strategies man.

The more I work in advertising, the more apparent that majority of companies (and my own colleagues) don’t know how to reach consumers like me. It’s absolutely tragic. (Cont’d)

I’m working with a manager who likes to prioritize his ideas over strategic research, I want to be helpful because it’s very distressing to watch ideas being presented without the appropriate research, any advice?

Do you drink or do anything wild at company holiday parties or events? I feel like as one of the only minority associates I have to be extra careful to stay professional. All my white coworkers can talk about is the open bar and how crazy everyone gets...true or false for your company?

What’s the point of having multiple awards for “craft writing” if your agency only sees you as the translator?  🙄

The “Pour one out for the L train” ads by Kombucha are part of the problem... cont
