Remember this: you can only do one thing at a time. Make one decision at a time. Be in one meeting at a time. So for everyone overwhelmed about what they’ve got to do today, go out there and gettem!

Preach! The eternal battle with account....everything is always asap.

Piling on to the truth serum on this post. We all need to hold hands and remind all of those overly enthusiastic account people and PMs that kicking off more projects will not make us work faster or keep the quality of work high. How about some timelines that keep workload into account?

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.

Adoptable dogs on beer cans: copy or coincidence?

Motorworks Brewing in Florida did this years ago, and now Uncommon just did the exact same thing for Brewdog beer.

Straight up plagiarism imo. Literally search "adoptable dog on beer can" and the Motorworks stuff comes up, so not googling the idea beforehand is not an excuse.
