Worked with a beagle in an SUV spot years ago.

Story was the ride was so smooth that the salivating beagle was thwarted from a free peanut butter and jelly sandwich because the kid didn’t drop it while dad navigated off road bumps.

I liked the idea more than the execution.

It ain’t easy. I’ve worked with cats, dogs and reptiles. They don’t always do what you want.

Didn’t get what we wanted, but made it work. Similar to working with babies

CG animals yes, including when The Mill went belly-up midstream:/
Oh and a dog or two who literally just that there.
Also the Aflac duck, which we’d use a real duck for whenever possible.
None of these animals actually had to do anything though, thank goodness.

I cut something with cats in it once. The key I think was they had several there on the shoot and they’d just swap them out when they started getting tired or scared or annoyed (it was a montage so that was ok). The flame work was much more extensive than they budgeted for due to shedding though.

Hello all,

Would like to know specifically about Queer inclusion at SocGen
Societe Generale. What is the attitude of mangers and HRs towards treating LGBTQ identifying candidates? Is company really inclusive or it’s just a lip service? Considering an offer with the company but being an out and proud Queer woman, super anxious and concerned.

I’m a fairly new manager and there is a high expectation to contribute ideas on how to improve our ways of working, flag up bottlenecks, contribute to strategy etc. We usually have meetings where we discuss these things as a team ( manager and above), but I hardly ever have anything to say. Is there anything I can do to come up with ideas and make more impact in these meetings? Could there be something I’m not paying attention to? Any advice will be appreciated.

Recent puppy owner of about a month. Seems i’m mentally scarred from her crying at night, so much so that my mind makes up sounds of her crying, which causes my sleep to be interrupted.


In reality, she doesnt cry at all at night now, and her crate is in the hallway…
