The Budweiser commercial was the bravest one of all the SB spots I’ve seen. Standing up for America takes courage when we’re constantly told how horrible America is.

Not that I dislike the spot, I actually like it. but standing up for America, in America, during an exclusively American sport, sounds pretty easy to me.

As I said, I like it too. Just don’t agree it’s a bold move.

If you fear them, I question your definition of courage.

In our industry it is brave. Is anyone nervous about saying we need diversity or transgender are people too? No way it’s a guaranteed pat on the back from your peers. Try saying America is great for the world at lunch next time you’re with coworkers, see what they say.

It’s true: Americans are famously averse to hearing about how amazing their country is. Thank you, Budweiser, for being brave enough to share this vital message.

Even the music and montage of faces at the end are so eerily familiar to “Dream Crazier” that I thought it was a parody. But no one is talking about it so maybe I’m just too close🤷🏻‍♂️

Idk. Let’s just feed America a Snickers :)

By this standard is any spot at all for the Army brave? Most of our piers believe cigarette advertising is horrible, would doing that be brave?

We had people at Ogilvy who suggested that Ogilvy resign work for ICE, a legitimate branch of law enforcement. So yeah, brave.

I’m a new analyst at an IB group. I’ve felt that I’ve done well my first month or two and delivered higher quality work, but I feel that lately I’ve been slipping up the past few weeks given the intensity of the deal as well as having multiple peripheral work streams. It also doesn’t help the second year analyst quit so I don’t necessarily have a resource to lean into. (Cont.)
