Which other careers have any of you considered switching to? Anything that 4-5 years of experience would help with just because it's experience at a corporate level?

This is something I've been struggling with. I'm ready for a switch but haven't found something that sounds different enough to be interesting but still a relatively lateral move for someone with 12 years of experience. In the meantime I've found a side hustle that's satisfying to me.

If the pay was equal to what I earn now, then I'd be a teacher

Why does the 3% Conference get so much money from agencies & clients when they have a history of showcasing toxic, abusive to female employees underneath them, women in advertising? Every year, people are shocked at who gets featured there. The idea is not just to celebrate women, it’s to celebrate aspirational women. Maybe they ran out of speakers and are dipping down too much. But agencies and clients should take a hard look at who is speaking before giving money.

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?

Someone please let me in on what’s going on with pharmaceutical advertising. Why is it the dumbest, most juvenile shit on television? It’s all horrible.

Kind of the opposite of the One Show I guess. Please share because I cannot fathom how the dry eyes, eye drop commercial I just saw even got presented to a client.
