Was talking to a musician friend who says since he quit working full time, every day feels like the weekend. Meanwhile, in advertising, every day feels like a Tuesday 🙃

Everyday feels like a weekend on lower wacker or skid row when I’m unemployed, too.

Nah, I honestly envy the freedom and control your friend has taken. Kudos to them.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.
