That “controversy” over Pitbull seems like the most performative woke-ness I’ve seen in a long time.

I’m even more outraged that Advertising Week still thinks Pitbull is relevant

It’s the same thing this industry does all the time. They want to talk about diversity but when it comes time to throw a lot of money at someone or give someone a platform they pick people who don’t embody the values they’re talking about.

you can’t possibly think that pitbull was an inspired choice to close out the “fashion week” of advertising, do you?

People need to lighten up. Adweek knows Pitbull isn’t about the equality agenda but he’s what they could afford, let’s be real here. They wanted buzz, they’re getting it now.

He just opened an ad agency - so I that’s where the connection is. Still a really dumb choice tho.

That would be a cool lineup with Purchase Behavior as opening act

Cognitive Dissonance as the no. 1 heartbreak track for me then!

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
