Fiat - No grey. It won a Grand Prix in a show the writer of this post judged. I did some digging and you actually can’t buy Fiats in grey so it seems.

Exactly, and the case says that "from now on Fiat won't PRODUCE grey cars" not that they will stop selling them immediately. This detail gives some nuance to the story from the room :)

I mean, you can still paint one Grey, right?

My guess was Fiat announcing that they're no longer making grey cars, but from my very cursory look on their website it looks like a promise that's been kept

Exactly. Couldn’t find the option to buy grey cars on their website. It was all over the non-trade news, supported by Fiat itself. Not scam. But the writer got some LinkedIn engagement.

Yeah, they just did a film announcing it but never implemented the actual idea.

Oh strange, I couldn’t find a grey fiat on their UK website. You did?

Where did this win a GP?

Yeah I see this all the time too. But the award shows make too much money to tick off any agencies.

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?

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? I get that over-use of friendliness in text can come off as green/immature, but I tend to try and cushion my words with positivity or even exclamation marks/the occasional emoji to show that I don't sound completely unemotional.

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