The other day I was on a client call, editing, and trying not to drop my lunch down me all at once. Media work seems to turn everyone into a multitasking pro (or mess). What’s the strangest combination of tasks you’ve tried to juggle at the same time?

If you spend the day writing stuff on linked in, how do you get shit done at work?

Getting sick of The US but haven’t been back home for 20 years. Where are the best places in Lagos to live if you had means and wanted to settle back? Im hearing about Banana Island, but not familiar.

Hello everyone. I am looking to transition into the medical writing field, but I don’t seem to have the right type of experience. I have technical writing experience, but I don’t have experience with clinical studies or clinical trials. Does anyone have any advice on how I can gain more experience in this field? I am pursuing the AMWA Essential Skills certificate and am working on a master degree, but any other information would be greatly appreciated!

Fair ? Good? Bad ?

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!

Do all firms share utilization reports for all staff with everyone? I feel like it’s awful for our company culture to share everyone’s stats office-wide. Just breeds anger and bad vibes all around.

In August, Joe Biden referred to the "extreme MAGA philosophy" as "semi-fascism."

SO excited about the new iPhone 14! I currently own an 11 Pro Max and never really upgraded because this one was still fine, but I feel like I want something newer. Has anyone purchased the 14 yet?

Just saw a meme that said “I’m going to turn off the news and put on a serial killer documentary to unwind” and…..ya. Does anyone else do this?

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female. So it's like they automatically think the only things I would be good at writing about are fluffy little human interest stories. I'm just a reporter like everyone else. Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?

Just read that Dodge said that their new electric car will be "super loud." Isn't the point of electric cars being quiet so people enjoy them more?

The argument that climate change is not man-made has been disproven by science over and over again, yet many people believe that the global crisis is either not real, not of our making, or both, in part because the news media deliberately chooses not to talk about it because it doesn't sell enough.

"Don't Look Up" is as real as it can be.

Is Facebook doing enough to stop the spread of fake news?

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?
