I am beyond stuck in my first 1.5 years of my career.

I was over promised opportunities at my first gig and then Covid hit. Leading me to have no portfolio worthy pieces from this 💩 agency with nothing great in sight. (place hasn’t won a pitch in my entire time here + lost clients)

I’m juggling re-vamping my site and a side project to hopefully make my book more robust.

With no kind of leadership or mentor, I’m just figuring out how to dig myself out of this hole. Any advice for this chump?

I’ve spent 3 years working at a call center and I would do just about anything to get off the phones. Do I aim for a promotion, or would I be better off trying another industry?

I’m trying to get my parents into adopting healthier eating habits but nothing is really sticking. Do you have any recommendations or like books I can give them to teach them what’s actually good to eat vs. falling for good marketing/ fads?

Is it hard to find job with 1.5yoe ?
Or it is only me.

Is there anything wrong with rent stabilized buildings? Is there a catch?

Anybody get a hair transplant in nyc and could recommend their doctor? Also would you recommend the procedure and going through the process (i.e., FUE vs FUT vs Bald)?

Also what was the recovery like? Nervous to look even worse as it grows back coming into the office. How much PTO did you take?

Asking for a friend ofc!

My New York City tax was much higher this pay cycle (June). Anyone know why?

On which kind of strap do you prefer to wear your watch?

I personally prefer NATO straps for sports watches and Perlon straps for dress watches.

I use timers to keep track of my billable hours, but many senior associates and partners have told me that they just estimate their time. What’s the best method? How do you even accurately estimate?

Happy Friday my people! 30/F here....anyone want to chat?

How do we get this bowl more active!!

If you’re here, like this.

New hire here. Does anyone try to take off for Purim? Or is it just the wrong time of year for that to be plausible?

Finally. Long Fridays are back. We made it. :-)

Any accounting firms that are better for making aliyah or working 100 % remote?

“i just fell asleep in the elevator”

I’m starting at VMLY&R on account side and was asked if I want a PC or Mac. Not trying to be the odd one out - what do most account folks have?

OH: (RE: required meeting attendance)

"Ok, fine. I will say yes now but fair warning I may fake my own death beforehand."

Account Manager: Look, I get it, you’re one of those hip white-sneaker-wearing creatives, but I know what the client really wants...

#OverheardAtWork "I just came off of the ice, what happened to vision 2020?"

“The copy needs more modern slang young millennials can relate to. It isn’t jiggy enough right now."

Is there any good reason to take a 10+ minute call in a bathroom stall at work? Noticing people doing this as RTO ramps up and I really don’t understand why you wouldn’t go outside or at least in your car.

“I mean if you need me I will be around...like in my house... not doing anything”

I made an announcement during our team meeting that I'll be taking another job offer. My petty boss said, "Well now that we have a little more budget, the rest of you will be getting raises!"

How you came into the company will define your path. That’s why you’ll never be successful switching departments.

“Let’s postpone this meeting for two weeks. I’ve been tested positive for COVID”

We’re all working remotely and I’ve faced this situation 6 times as it is. Y’all wild but stay safe!!!

“I’m not trying to call anyone a Neanderthal, but those guys are measuring with a measure tape so I’m sure they’ll be okay if it’s 0.01 inches off calibration.”

So overheard after work:

I left a company a while back and a coworker of mine that also left just informed me that one of the C level execs has an SEC decision against him for embezzling several million.

This was from before I worked there...

“Chatroulette, but for apartment peepholes."

I want the juice from the food industry workers 🧐

So a higher up made a new rule that for a service we offer , we have to offer it to the customers three times and If they say no a manager has to get involved and document. it is this not wrong?

If an employee mentions something disparaging or accusatory about their manager during an exit interview, how would you handle? What happens if what the employee said is slanderous and a “he said/she said” situation? I.e. employee claimed the manager made a disparaging remark about an item of clothing being worn by someone in accordance with their beliefs. If you opt to share the feedback with the manager, would the manager have a legal case against the company or former employee?
