You’ve had a 360-campaign brief for about a week that’s essentially a brand refresh. The expectation in the first-round creative review is scripts and adlobs for each concept. How many concepts to you come back with?

Best west coast pharma agencies?

Apparently some journals can prevent sci-hub from sharing their content now.

Do you know of a sci-hub alternative for free journal articles?

Hello Fishes.. Does novartis asks you to do a IBM course before joining? They have asked one of my friend to complete IBM course certification before joining the org.

Hi friends,

Anyone with insight into the real estate group in Orrick’s LA office?

Lateral that just went through first bonus season with the firm. Not in a major market but workload is comparable to major markets. Surprised at how low the bonus was. I received solid reviews and my annualized hours were well above the requirement. Should I approach anyone about this? Wondering if it is worth addressing or if it could compromise my standing. Thanks in advance!

What can a junior associate do about a mid-level that constantly asks questions about things they were cc’d on, sends dozens of piecemeal emails and is generally just super high strung and needs everything right away?? No other mid-levels I’ve worked with act this way and this individual I’m working with is driving me insane and I’ve spent countless hours attaching emails and saying “as explained in the attached email…”

Any downsides to leaving a “Counsel” role and moving into a “Legal Affairs” role? Still practicing and representing the company, just a difference of titles, so core work remains the same - what do you think?

Please help me rationalize through something:
2 kidneys but can only give 1 (potentially):

1) Cousin: 36, mom of 2, lives a fairly healthy lifestyle
2) Dad: 60-65 YO; kidney failure runs in the family, lives an unhealthy lifestyle but this is dad…

What should I be considering in thinking through how to decide? What factors would you think about?

P.S. will go through screening process for both but just want to start thinking about things now

Joined this week. What can I expect from Mr V

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction. Man I hate this part - waiting to see what his response will be after he researches and talks to his doctor. I’m on daily meds which help reduce transmission risk. You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?

My mental health has suffered tremendously over the past month. I have a therapist that I probably should see more of but I’m jobless and need to save. I am an aspiring entrepreneur with an inspiring business idea (to me lol) but my anxiety and depression is hindering me severely… fuck my brain. Any other founders here? It’s f‘ing tough.

Do any of you have a favorite pre-workout and/or post-workout protein shake? Looking into some to give me energy for sitting at my desk all day 🙃🙂

As a junior should I put social in my book? Have two other bigger projects but not sure if I need to show more work for my next step.

anyone have any great examples of a portfolio/book for strategy? no idea where to start with mine lol

Has anyone just filmsupply for pitches?

What do you do when there’s absolutely nothing going on at work? The projects I’m working on are all in production, and I’ve raised my hand several times about taking on new work, but there’s nothing right now. Don’t get me wrong, the down-time is nice…but I’m hungry to make stuff.

Hey guys, question regarding new years resolutions. Anyone know some good books about how to lead better and step up to become a great CD?

can a writer explain the new season of Dave to me?

What makes a bro?

I need help/advice/emotional support/literally anything.

I’m an in-house designer. My company decided to offer social media marketing packages to our clients. Today they asked me to take full ownership of that outside social media marketing on top of my current job duties.

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.

Wtf do I do

Looking to move to New York - does anyone know which agencies are hiring these days?

Who else is constantly given briefs with influencers baked in as a key component of the solution?

FCB Health Chicago - What’s it like?

Any resources out there to find great up-and-coming photographers, stylists, set designers etc, in LA?

What’s a gal got to do to get an interview with Droga5? Any CDs in here willing to check out my book?

Thinking about making a move from agency to our state’s PBS HQ. Obviously less money, but also more purpose. Curious if anyone has made a move for purpose>money/prestige/etc and if it’ll be worth it, or just make me miss clients and their budgets and the craziness of agency life (which I love)

Are you a copywriter that moved from healthcare/pharma to consumer? Tell me how that went for you.

Would a CD here look at some line edits I made for a campaign? Would be great if I could email you them?

Just found out I’m getting laid off in two weeks. How do I stay motivated to do work until then?

Who are your favorite advertising comedy directors? Who are your favorite comedy directors who are women?

Are there any CDs working on Post Mates, Grub hub or Door dash. I just wrote out a whole campaign for fun. Print, commercials, activations, etc. Would love to pitch it.

How often do you reevaluate your working in advertising and how do you process it or what conclusions have you come to? I think about it at least weekly and I’m not sure why.
