Why is it that so many us of hate our jobs in this industry? On paper, it pays pretty well, you get to make stuff and go on shoots etc. It’s not physically gruelling work and it’s not as dull as most office jobs. So what is it that makes us hate it so much? The hours? The creative frustration? The clients?

I was let go without notice about eight months ago. Now, my former manager is reaching out to me to see if I would be interested in returning. I do need a job, but should I trust this opportunity?

Been seeing some displeased LinkedIn posts about JOAN creative’s recent hiring of Gerry Graf over a potential woman successor. Now, I’m all for championing inclusivity, especially in the c-suite. But is it safe to say that Gerry was maybe actually the best person for the job? He’s no random human in the industry…can someone help me understand what I’m missing? I mean this genuinely and want to learn. Please don’t troll lol.
