So we’re all making the zoom/cell phone/ stock anthem spot about how our brands have a big message to stay home now right? Facebook, uber, Oreo, Walmart back to back on Hulu. Who’s next?

This Friday is the 1 Yr. Anniversary Party of AIR. All members are highly encouraged to attend Friday’s zoom call to celebrate, recount stories and play the Trivia Game for awesome prizes!!! Keep eyes peeled for your email invite and hope to see you then!

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

Who wants to learn semiconductor industry or chip shortage?

I like how this app wants us to market ourselves for likes in order to get started on networking!

5YOE+MS+MBA begging for likes!
HELP please! In return I can have a group zoom session on semiconductors

So...
What to do? What to do?

Came back to school in August with a cruise ship still sitting on my stage. We walked away from Anything Goes the day after the sitzprobe because of the quarantine. Still taking the wind out of my sails.

We are here now, but not able to stage shows. Logic says, "Do a radio show!" Just not sure I want to subject the kids to the emptiness of that performance style given the Zoom life they've been living. The production of it could be fun though.

Thoughts?

Generally curious how many companies offer phone reimbursement? My last gig did not but the current one does. Legally it seems, all employers are required to do so if we use our phone in literally any capacity (video call, slack, teams, emails etc). How prevalent is the issue of not reimbursing phone dues?

AIR is hosting our next Straight Talk panel discussions on Monday 3/15 on zoom.

Topic: Producers & Reps: Pain Points & Pleasure Points … where we dive into what works, what doesn’t, what makes the best rep & producer relationship and how can we be better partners for/ with one another.

Seeking freelance or staff producers interested in being a panelist. Kindly DM. Thank you!

Heard bumblings over HH today of a second round of Deloitte Tax Chicago layoffs after busy season. Thoughts?

Does an associate 3 at PwC make the same as a senior at other places relative to market and service line?

Thoughts on AI copywriting software? It's so cringy to me to think people actually are trying to get rid of copywriters with AI. Those taglines, headlines, etc., that are generated are terrrriblleee.

My controversial opinion of the day is that organic social is worth fuckall for the majority of brands (including the trendy lifestyle ones) and that influencers are just propping up vanity metrics.

Want to get your opinions on the best small agencies in LA in terms of work produced (media and creative)

Anyone else feel like as you move up, you have to work even harder to justify your value to your company as you grow “out of the weeds”? Especially with the fear of layoffs looming over everyone’s heads.

📊 Curious to learn how diverse is Fishbowl? What's your age and nationality?

So by how much exactly does W+K NY lowball creatives? Any ranges for senior creatives or CDs?

Do anyone know if JPMC does their social (organic and paid) in house?

How do you handle remote teams being in different time zones? Right now we have a ton of team leaders on the west coast with the core team on the east coast and because of that urgent requests keep coming down after hours with the expectation to address it immediately. So at this point we’re working from 8am until like 11pm and nobody knows what to do to push back on it

How long can you go without having anything to do before you get laid off?

I don’t understand summer hours. If you have to make up the hours you take off for summer hours earlier in the week, aren’t you working just as hard in a more condensed amount of time?

Just saw a commercial that was definitely filmed in my apartment building in downtown LA. Felt kind of weird.

Is anyone expecting agency layoffs at the moment?

Grey Merge with AKQA, VMLYR merges with Geometry. Are those „mergers” just the coverups for potential wave of layoffs?

So looks like Verizon is really beefing up their new in-house agency. About 30 openings right now in NYC. Maybe? 🤔
