Post-COVID fishies: How long did it take until you felt back to your normal selves? Are you not quite there yet? It’s been just over a month since I tested positive and although the worst symptoms are gone, I’m so tired all the time. Everything exhausts me: laundry, walks (especially in the cold), all the back-to-back zoom calls… I can sleep for 12 hours, it’s insane. Just hoping to hear from others!

I used to be a top performer before rona but have been so unmotivated for the last year of WFH and my performance is tanking because of it. I know some people love this life but I absolutely hate it; I chose audit because I enjoy being onsite at clients and thrive on the team camaraderie of audit rooms. WFH was okay at first, but the longer I'm stuck sitting at the same desk in my house alone all day the more meaningless everything feels to me. I don't know what the solution is, but I'm so tired

Hi fishes🙂 👋🏻 I got an offer from Larsen & Toubro Infotech today for the position of 365 Functional Consultant.
But the designation offered is 'Senior Engineer - Cloud Services and Software' whereas in PwC my designation: 'Technology Consultant' & designation of offer in hand(IBM) :'Advisory Consultant'.
So will IBM consider my Larsen & Toubro Infotech offer as a counter offer?
My fear is whether they will say 'you r offered a different role hence we cant consider'.Will it matter that much?

When do you start to consider that you’ve been ghosted after a “let’s find another time to meet” message from a CD?

How many drafts is normal for a blog being reviewed by an editor or marketing manager? At my last gig (or even last manager at my current company), I didn't have issues getting things right but now I'm revising my blogs multiple times. I'd like feedback on how to write better but also how to manage a manager. I feel I'm having anxiety from the harsh feedback and my writing is suffering.

Have you ever gone for an informational interview outside of first starting out? How’d it go? Curious if that’s a thing copywriters do.

What’s your favorite notebook to write in? (The more detailed your review, the more likely I’ll fall in love with you.)

I am an “international” copywriter as they call us, and people at the agency are constantly changing my copy. Sometimes even without telling me. There always seems to be something “wrong” with it.

So, I and another American copywriter made an experiment the other day: I presented HIS copy and he presented MY copy. My stuff got so many corrections and his stuff didn’t get any.

Do any other international copywriters go through this bullshit?

The COVID creative slump is strong with me these days. What are you all doing to combat it?

Any of y’all pursuing screenwriting? Unfortunately only took one course in college and I just graduated. Wish I experienced more of it. Any suggestions or insight from your own experiences?

As a copywriter, I often feel the need to provide more value to the team outside of just writing. Because whether it’s always true or not, writing is one of those things that even a strategist or an AD can do really well. I always feel the need to compensate. Does anyone else feel that way and how do you manage that?

Has anyone worked as a television writer? I’m curious to know how it compares to working in advertising.
