Sapient, yes we feel picked on. Check out the threads here and see how many times "white" and "men/males" come up. Replace those words with "Jews" "blacks" " hispanics" or "women" and you'll see pretty quickly that it is unacceptable for everyone else except white men. I get it. I agree with a lot of it. But yes, we feel picked on (and we know we are a dying breed with huge targets on our backs and we cannot fight back).

ACD, I make more money than you because I'm your boss. I'm your boss because my ideas have so far been better and people respect me more than you. My boss (woman, Latina) makes more than me and has had more better ideas than me and is a lioness in this industry. See how this works?

When you start arguing about typos, you've lost the argument. Good luck with your oppression, 27-year-old ACD who in no way got promoted because of your looks. I'm sure when they go ((when you turn 34, btw)), everyone will love working with you.

In fairness to Saatchi, they didn't fuck that insult up like you did just now, CD. How many more people like you than me again? Would it happen to be people who don't give a shit if you can type?

Just seeing this post (different saatchi) I'm so tired of people feeling sorry for themselves and entitled to everything, this thread is worse than Facebook. Spend less time spewing gasoline on everyone and blaming their sex or race on your own life and more time on your career and u might not need to blame others for not moving up. The last 3 agencies I have worked for had a female head of creative and agency, maybe u just aren't at the right company. just saying, u yourself sound pretty sexist and racist.

Sapient, those are 2 separate things, right?

Fine, I'll bite: white males hand out over inflated titles to everyone else to make them feel good about work for the man.

@ creative director 1: besides that..do you think clients trust inflated titles white males in leads more? these are serious questions ...

👆 hey pick on someone your own size. And you're wrong on so many counts.

Also, btw, when you get in, me and he would like to have a word with you...

Saatchi, you sound like a bad parody. Are you a guy?

Yeah, I've been a horrible bully here Saatchi. Must be my testosterone. Please make an allowance for my hormonal rage.

🙌 Unsubscribing 🙌. Efforts wasted here.

Saatchi, you insulted me right out of the gate, so...

How nice it must be for you to not see the words "shut up your privileged ass up" as insulting, Saatchi. You must be a pleasure to work around.

ACD, wha?

I read a lot of posts here about difficult bosses, difficult clients, difficult partners, terrible briefs and terrible agencies. All that might be true. But it’s getting old. What I’d be interested in hearing about are the stories of how people have overcome the challenges. How did you sell that big idea? How did you fix a relationship? The world is not going to get easier. So maybe we can help each other get better at dealing with it. Who had a win recently? How did you do it?

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person.
