Thank you, maybe I will but it's hard to go through with that choice when I have a family that still depends quite a bit on me, maybe once my son starts his career I can switch out guess we'll see

It is too annoying when they ask us but we also have to put ourselves in their shoes, many are also being pressured by the packages.

People coming at me with stuff that is out of my job description is one of my biggest pet peeves

What carriers do you use? Should check out boutique same day/next day with GoBolt. Live order tracking like Uber eats.

I would save so much time if I didn't have to deal with that kinda call.

Any Hr people out there..my wife is going through a harassment case against her boss. He is retaliating against her and other staff. On going for years. Most recently she had to take a leave of absence. There is a formal investigation into him. What is the timeline this should take ? And should he be allowed to have 1on1 talks with other staff members?. He is in damage control now trying to buy everyone lunch and doing his own PR tour. Month into investig doesn't seem like much has happend yet.

Junior here. How common is it to be nudged off a brief when you can't get ideas through internally? My partner and I are often put on the same briefs as more experienced (sometimes senior) teams. As a result, their work tends to make it through to the client presentation while most of ours dies somewhere along the way from CD to CCO. Is this worth worrying over?
