What does one do with an advertising BA degree and agency experience besides working at an ad agency? Does anyone know of any success stories?

So, following that plebe preferences post from last week, I have found myself playing Safeway Monopoly. Like any lonely consultant would, I've gotten into it. Feel free to send me your tickets haha

How big is to big for an initial investment property. Theres a 20 SFH portfolio for sale by me for about a mil. Is this to big to start with initially? I'm less worried about the Financials (feel comfortable on that end) and more worried about the managerial aspect.

Is it common for HOA to ask you to prove your car registration is up to date?

What rates are people getting for condos? I’m thinking about selling my condo (I had 3.25%) but my realtor said that the rates are so high now that if I were to buy a similarly priced place, the monthly payment would be like $800 more. I’m bad at math, so I wanted to ask here to confirm this is accurate. Mortgage is around $700k

Anyone know if deloitte allows part time CPT? My full time CPT ends in May and been emailing immigration but no response.

Black men, best barbershops located in the loop?

Two offers in hand. What expected salary range i can say.

Is it weird to leave a job without expressing you are unhappy to any managing partners before hand? I actually think they will be shocked if I gave my two weeks and I think my biggest worry is that I am going to be killing my group if I leave with all the matters they will need to take on. But the firm has just been brutal during COVID with no acknowledgment at all (money or otherwise) of all the extra work associates have been putting in.

Does anyone in this group have ADHD? Are you finding that working in a law firm setting and billing hours is just not something they can do or is it possible with the proper medication and therapy?

I don’t cut my hours, I consistently reach 7 hours a day, but it’s not enough to meet my firm’s minimum requirement. I’m usually working 9 hours/day.

Hi all..I got offer from JP Morgan Bangalore and UBS Pune with same CTC. Can someone help me which should I join ?

Every moment I’m away makes me realize how fragile the reasons I stay in the city. How can the city survive the urban flight? Will you stay and why? (I’m staying as long as I can)

How long does it take to get verified on this app

Idk about you guys but I feel so much more productive when it rains

My stress level is so high I'm seeing double.

Burnetters are always last to know about Burnett news. 😑

It's an everyday torture when you hate your partner. Maybe the feeling is mutual.

How’s Mullen NY?

How long can you go without having anything to do before you get laid off?

Congrats on the Discovery Channel ad peeps! Touched my millennial children who bought it to my attention!

Do pharma agencies intentionally over-promote / inflate titles so you’re stuck and not really qualified to leave?

Left a client because all I was making were banners and social media only to learn that my new client is exclusively banners and social media. Is my career hitting a dead end?

I’m looking for some new things to read or listen to — doesn’t need to be ad-related. Books, podcasts, whaddya got?
I’m not really into fiction, but open to anything. Last books I enjoyed were Junior and Moonwalking with Einstein, last podcast I binged was Startup (Gimlet).

Who is the main contact for Ogilvy recruiting?

Advertising has ruined my life. I can’t even ask a friend about getting drugs without sounding like a tool - “Following up in regard to gram and point pricing for our visit”

Company is great. Coworkers are great. Clients are great. But creative management here sucks. Not sure if things would change for the better even if I moved. What if this is best case scenario?

Creative Director: “Craft and storytelling will always be fundamental in this industry.”

Same Creative Director: “So they flip the Yoplait Yogurt cup on Tiktok as a...challenge? Sure, why not if the kids are doing it. But what’s the hashtag?”

Help an elderly person: can anyone tell me a high-profile spot that features a tik tok, IG or twitch person? In other words, an influencer who got what could be called a big break?

(I cant think of any, but then it occurred to me I wouldnt recognize them.)

Thanks in advance, hip people

28, 7 yoe, been in-house my entire career, no interest in joining an agency. Have I lost all potential of winning significant awards?

Have you ever left a place and on your last day, refused to have lunch or drinks with the back stabbing co-workers you generally despise?

What is your agency’s maternity or paternity leave policy?

I MISS OBAMA.
