Secretly waiting for the day when the agency model will collapse. Ad execs can only think of increasing headcount. In the age of ML, AI, and cheap hardware, you're riding on dangerously low fuel.

Any non-native English speaker here? I’ve been here in the states for over 10 years and looking back I am amazed by how I survived corporate America and how tolerant my colleagues have been towards me. Nevertheless, it’s hard to escape from imposter syndrome. I also caught myself rationalizing my slightly lower-than-market comp with my language skills. Any thought or advice?

I’m interested in New York agencies, but I’m turning 30, interested in starting a family. Are there any agencies doing good work but won’t consume your life?

My agency doesn’t submit for awards, and I’m not saying I’d win if they did. But as much as we say awards don’t matter, it feels like they do at a lot of places I’d like to eventually work. How difficult is it to submit on my own? Or am I better off finding a place that does submit and is willing to hire me without awards?

Is sticking up for yourself even worth it? My boss is always on my ass as if I’m constantly missing, or about to miss, deadlines. I’ve never missed one. I’ve received the same damn lecture/email about monitoring all case deadlines a hundred times. I always just professionally explain that we’re not about to miss any and discuss the progress. Well, I’ve about had it and am ready to go off. I’m sick of basically being told that I’m not doing my job. How should I address this issue?

Since disconnecting with past stories my reality has drastically bent. My stories programmed my reality, attracting what I told myself I was/wasn't.

I’m 32 and after just landing in this industry a couple years ago, feel really, really behind. I want to move to creative but am worried about my age (even though I know writers who got into it older)

I’m going to say it. You all know that strategy isn’t a thing right? It’s advertising. We try to sell products or brands. An advertising person is a strategy person who specializes in art or copy.

I can smell your desk from the bathroom

It's freezing tonight bitter cold. I just ordered Chinese and I'm not sure if that was a shitty thing to do. I think they need to make money so if no one calls that wouldn't be good. I did tip well

this isn't a confession but it's not a general topic. does anyone use any natural remedies for ADHD?

Turned down a gig at Apple two years ago because I saw a lot of growth opportunities at my current company and saw the position as a step back (even though it was more money) and have regretted it ever since. Still in the same exact position at the same company I was then btw. Bad choice.

Who has made the leap from working/living in the US to abroad? Any words of advice?

I look at my resume, accomplishments and the fact that I can cook and wonder wtf I’m still single. Oh yea! I live in NY and just got home from a 13 hr day of work. 🙄

If my agency wants me back in the office, can I tell them that I’m not planning to get vaccinated (for personal reasons) even if that’s a lie, and would that work?

Our data director will not stop talking. Constantly. About the most useless shit. He also takes forever to get to the point. I now wonder if he got the job bc they just wanted to shut him up.

I love marketing jargon.

I am not ok.

I don’t understand people who choose the bathroom stall next to yours when EVERY OTHER stall is free

I haven’t had any type of romantic/intimate relationship in 10yrs, since I was 16. It has to be me and I should just prepare for a life alone, right?

After nearly a year WFH and being with my family 24/7, I’m not entirely sure we actually like each other. Or maybe they don’t like me being at home. Or they don’t like me. Probably the latter 😞

When it's Wednesday afternoon... and you're waiting for that "we'll contact you early next week" email after a potentially life changing interview ...AND EVERY SPAM EMAIL MAKES YOU WANT TO DIE.
