How tough will it be for me to get up to speed and are there any recommended trainings I should do? Please let me know!

It’s Friday who’s partying

Which portable standing desk converters do people have and recommend. I live in a tiny NYC apartment so use my dining table as the office during the day but need to put it away at night.

Can we please be done with vertical video? It’s completely opposite the human field of view, looks horrible, no camera other than a cell phone shoots it. Seriously dreading IGTV.

Having to explain every meme, YouTube video, and cultural trend to the old fart creative directors :|

Any advice on nailing the perfect headline?

Is it normal for every single call (client or internal) everyone dials in from their desks at an open format office? Everyone avoids takings calls together/conference rooms like the plague.

Which agencies are going through layoffs

Did anybody work at Red Fuse? Curious on everyone’s thoughts. Liked their work

Shoutout to account peeps ready to explain why, actually, it isn't that much work and, actually, EOD tomorrow is plenty of time.

Why do I literally chew my nails off throughout the day. Need to know so I can stop

Shoutout to the recruiter who ghosted on a meeting they setup! Gotta love the professionalism 👏

Just heard Explosions In the Sky’s “Your Hand In Mine” in a random beer commercial, and now I want them to tour again.
