My fiancé and I both have the CSR card and Freedom Unlimited combo and love them. We are thinking of adding another card and we were considering the Amex Platinum (to diversity transfer partners) or likely a United card for lounge access since we live in Chicago.

Does anyone else have both CSR and Amex Platinum? Would you recommend?

May be this is off the topic..

Looking to put 10k into ibonds (maybe another 10k next year but not sure yet). Is treasury site easy enough to use? I initially stayed away because I heard it's awful but if set up is doable then I'll reconsider.

If I’m just beginning to invest outside of my retirement accounts, should I invest in a Vanguard ETF (VOO)?

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

How do you invest and save for your children? I’m thinking about setting them up with custodial brokerage accounts but don’t want them to have a heyday at 18. Did you create irrevocable trusts or?? They are too young for earned income and I don’t own a business so no IRA investing opportunities here.

I have two offers in hand. KPMG and Deloitte. CTC is almost same whereas variable is more in KPMG. I am inclined towards Deloitte India. But HR in KPMG told me that I won't be able to join KPMG India in future as I accepted their offer. I informed her within 2 weeks and didn't do anything for onboarding. I didn't ask to increase the amount or JB and I strongly believe I informed early so they can look for other candidates. Is this bluff? Any HR here to clarify

If you start as a Program Manager, how/when do you begin to advise people as a people lead? I’ve heard Program Managers are not people leads. I started lead a team of 3 about a month ago at my current job and don’t want to lose leadership experience but have been told my YOE would map to a Program Manager level at Google.

Anyone have any advice or insight on interviewing for a GS General Attorney position? I’m really excited and working to prepare for an interview I’ve been offered. It’s 3 part, on one day. 2 one on one interviews and a panel interview. For reference, it’s a position in an agency that’s involved in both trade and national security. I’m a litigation junior associate in private practice now, but have a long academic background in international trade, policy, and security.

Every time a creative team punts on 2nd down, mutters something about “work/life balance” before bolting at 3, and shits the bed .... a corona gets its lime.

I am inundated with so many tasks that I don't have the mental capacity to attack them all immediately & it makes me feel guilty. There's got to be a more realistic term for this than procrastination

Microsoft Surface computers: have you used them? Do you enjoy them? How have they been evolving? Creatives: can they keep up with a MacBook in performance with CC?

Honest question, can fishbowl actually help resolve and navigate the challenges, frustrations and realizations we face as an industry? Or more just a place to vent?

50 an hour at a pharma company or 20-25 at an ad agency ... hmmmmmmmmm

Which one y’all stole my muffin?

When did “mass” leave "mass communication”? Seems like everything
I’m asked to do lately is so that 12 people see it on YouTube and we can write up a case study.

Do you work on a single brand only or multiple (how many)?

If you don’t want your writer to kick you in the throat, refrain from saying things like, “Oh there aren’t any changes to creative...just COPY."

Just read a Q&A with Nick Law (Publicis) in the Drum. Surprised that he perpetuates the "creatives are crazy" stereotype. After 7 agency years I'm pretty sure the account people are the real psychos.

Best resources to learn marketing strategy? I have a liberal arts background and need to fill the gap in my understand of the business fundamentals behind comms

Creatives who left for tech. What is it exactly that you do now? Is it still writing or art directing? Or a different creative role? Hearing about people leaving for tech so I want to know what it means exactly aside from the benefits.

How many agencies that have spent the last year talking about Black Lives Matter/equality/diversity and then don’t do a very simple thing like closing in recognition of MLK Day?

Do you share film edits with your colleagues?

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person. Heard a technique which is to drop off the call bc you “assume the call is over” (which seems like a great way to get fired especially if it’s a way higher up’s kids - plus it feels rather passive aggressive.) Thoughts?

A position I interviewed for said they hoped to make a decision by end of last week. I followed up w/ my (external) recruiter (who’s usually VERY quick & responsive) and so far crickets. Bad sign?

Do you think independent agencies will be in better shape to handle COVID-related client budget reductions and/or losses?

Or does it not matter and layoffs are equal across the board?
