What’s the best way to get a new partner? I’ve been paired up with a huge dud. They have no ideas, they don’t present anything, and they consistently waste my time, burn my energy, and make me feel stupid for doing my best. Every day I leave them thinking ‘I’d do better alone’…y’all, I don’t want to ‘fix this’, I want a new person entirely. Does anyone have any advice?

Leaving - how does the process to use up remaining time off typically work? Suppose I have 2 weeks left. Would I give a 4 week notice + take the 2 weeks off after working for 2 weeks? Trying to maximize my time off between the roles while also continuing to get paid another few weeks.

Looking to move to New York - does anyone know which agencies are hiring these days?

Which one would you pick?

Big name shop. Shitty account, but you get opportunities beyond that.

Shop with bad reputation that lacks PR and hardly enters awards but has a lot of book-worthy projects.

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
