@SM1,
I'm with you on the "could be better" approach because it's the only way to keep moving forward. But looking ahead to "better" doesn't require believing that where you are sucks. There's room for both gratitude and ambition at the same time. Actually, as soon as I figured that out, I started to find success much more easily. It turned out that all the negativity was wasting my own energy and poisoning some of my interactions with others.

Nice bowl to avoid lowering the average in the US-centric threads. Anybody else finding that with the lack of pay rises this year, it’s become even harder to benchmark? Had a few recruiters recently suggesting I’d get 25% more by moving to a competitor but no telling whether that’s a short term-gain for a longer term hit.

An agency I freelance for wants to hire me full-time. They told me for a Sr Copywriter, 100-110k. I countered with 125-150.

I also said I'm interested in a higher-level title - I currently freelance as a Creative Director of Copy elsewhere (they don't have that title at this agency.)

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?
