When the client actually expects you to work on a Friday afternoon...

Looking to leave consulting and jump to industry. Does anyone have any tips on how they have changed/reorganized their resume (e.g not listing things out project by project)?

How many reminder emails are necessary for following up regarding documents that need to be sent to a client? I sent a follow up email on Wednesday and another one last night. No reply (probably bc this partner has a ton going on). Any tips for handling this type of stuff with busy partners? I want to do my part to move everything along, but I also don’t want to be annoying with numerous follow-up emails.

My Client Impact snapshot is at the topmost corner but the firm impact snapshot is at the bottom, how will this affect my discussions?

On the bench currently, chances of me getting on a project anytime soon?

Any recommendations for 2~3 day road trip from LA? On a long term project and want to use alt Fri, Sat, and Sun to explore nearby attractions.

I will be concepting and writing some spots for a new start up. Will eventually help them pick the right production company/director to shoot the spots, then will oversee the shoot/editing/and final delivery.

Since I’ll be working solo, should it be more than my freelance rate?

Any info helps. Thanks!

Funniest conversation that happened with the client when delivering (project, deliverable, etc?)

Some days (today) I just want to say: "go home (client name) you're a worthless POS that doesn't know what the fuq is going on here and just makes my job harder. Don't let the door hit you, Felicia!"
