Two things can be true. I would love to win Cannes. But also, the Cannes work is a lot of virtue signal bs that makes me cringe.

Looks like I know what I need to do 😈

Don’t obsess with Cannes (or any award for that matter). Obsess with great ideas. You can’t control if an idea wins award or not, as there’s a lot of other factors to it that you seem to start to understand that. But coming up with and making an idea great its definitely in your control (or at least partially)

Nah, definitely people who are obsessed win the most because they are the ones who know how the game works, how to craft the case movies and how to fake the work. Look at the real client work from the agencies that won big, that work is mostly sub par, whereas their awards work is created solely to win awards.

Yes but there’s also work that isn’t that. Just do the work you wanna do and hope for the best. Don’t hamfist virtue signal cringe into anything.

The single session is all I'm asking but could certainly turn into a longer lasting coaching relationship (at no cost), if you like.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

If you get an offer a few days before you have a final interview (or while you're waiting to hear back), is it okay to ask for some time? Or do they expect you to answer right there?

i'm in the final round for 2 different media positions in 2 completely different places (NYC and NC) and things are moving really quickly for both. the NYC job is my dream one but they're both offering $40k so i'm conflicted. any advice would be helpful lol

Does anyone else feel like people who are generally nice in person and on calls sound mean or stand-offish in emails and text/chat?

Or maybe i'm just an overthinking copywriter who's reading into it too much.
