Having worked at droga, there was no off switch. But for reasons that made no sense.

Depends on the day, who your CDs are, accounts and project timelines. Sometimes I work 14 hour days + weekends, sometimes I work 5 hour days. It really just depends.

The people who do the comedy stuff seem to have a better work/life balance.

The accounts making the good work are all brutal.

like

To be clear, my take is not that comedy is the only viable lane for work.

Just that good work needs a memorable hook.

Dundee, IHOB, Ecko, Guitar Hero, After Hours Athletes, Jay-Z, This is Wholesome. The work that made that place famous.

Not all of it comedic but all of it unique.

But I guess that makes me a white male who loves Cliff Freeman?

Hey fishes,

Let’s say
Brillio gave some joining bonus and if we are leaving within an year we need to pay it back.
So does it mean I need to put papers after one year or is that okay to put papers after 9 months, so serving 3 months notice makes it one year.
Please let me know if anyone had an idea about this.
