Hate to the bearer of bad news but 100% of people who get an MBA die.

Genuinely curious, not asking to be facetious, but what made you get an MBA as a creative? I’m just curious what doors that could theoretically open for someone who is purely creative.

It’s just this very persistent troll we have on here, and this is their one joke 🤷‍♂️

100% of the time, you do or don’t get a job with an MBA.

Actually in advertising I hazard a guess they make you look more like you don’t belong here.

The bit’s folding in on itself

Don't get tricked

Let’s get the guy banned. Semi serious

Report his trolling. He’ll get suspended or booted and maybe he’ll stop.

There’s an assumption that mba’s are entitled to more money, perks, and opportunities. Having an mba doesn’t provide any of this unless the person behind it has more skills and knowledge than a non mba person.

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female.

Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.
