My current coworkers know almost nothing about me. I don’t really vibe with any of them so I just keep to myself. Don't share any insecurities, weaknesses or your family issues with them. Even political beliefs. I've learned the hard way they will tell others or use it against you.

Compensation. Also don’t overshare/draw more attention than is needed to your week long vacation in the Bahamas. Coworkers will subconsciously resent you for it even though PTO is essential

Secrecy around compensation only hurts employees in the long run.

Political or Religious Views: These topics can be divisive, and it’s best to keep discussions professional to maintain a harmonious workplace.

How would you rate the freelance market at the moment? I’ve recently quit fulltime, and beyond a couple of my own (LLC) short client projects - I’ve had zero agency freelance over the summer.
I have 10 years exp (2.5 as CD on well known brands) at respected agencies, and some awards.
What am I doing wrong? I left FT to address some long term burnout, but now I’m afraid if this continues - I’ll have to go back full time, without even snagging a FL gig. 🫤
