They’re actually auto-sh*rting. I don’t even have to eat anything they just sh*rt themselves. More great innovative thinking coming out of Dentsu!

FCB swags are the best.

Perfectly fine to wear a foot cone bell ding sweatshirt, just put a sock over the foot

Sure thing, ironically enough I loathe actual/live marketing & branding crap, but gimme some obscure, fake or obsolete swag and I’m a happy guy! #BlueSun #WeylandYutani and #AsyncResearch

Pretty sure I have a Mullen shirt and DDB tumbler floating around. Would it be offensive to go as the ghost of creativity for Halloween?

Absolutely. Get that retro vibe going.

WT was short lived by comparison but had actual good quality swag, and it was all FREE. Looking at you VML.

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!

Went on a bachelorette trip where the maid of honor was very anal, she made us do bi-monthly check ins with slides/agenda/itinerary since last year. We even had to share outfit pictures of exactly what we would be wearing, we got a dress code (color, length of dress, types of accessories), how to make the bride stand out, and tips on how to take pictures a certain way to flatter the bride. Now she’s going to be joining my office too, im scared I’ll have to see her often and socialize

Thoughts? This seems decent based on my research but couldn't find a ton of data points. What is the career trajectory/opportunity like is a Google CE? Opportunities to move to product later on or will I be heavily soloed within tech? How do refreshers work? For example at other tech companies I've heard only about 10% of a team might receive refreshers each year

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

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.
