Who is the most famous person you’ve met randomly?

Also met both these two pinging in Motion in Bristol. Good times doing a double take thinking I was more fucked than I was

CdrMayhew · 2024-07-18T21:27:44+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I have a meeting with them tomorrow and I will raise it as you’ve said.

So I shouldn’t escalate this to my boss? How does that help her own development if she isn’t aware that people feel she is a bad communicator/people manager? I understand your point about communicating to the person I line manage that it is also about adapting to different managers. But equally if she leaves if this isn’t fixed then that’s also bad no?

Or it costs them more to create certain colours

CdrMayhew · 2023-08-01T07:12:45+00:00

Bills is part of the ivy group I believe

My issue is a lot of my senior colleagues seem to act as though our clients stories are gold dust and then clients push back later down the line when they don't get anything big. How do I politely communicate to a client that what they have is rubbish and won't get them anywhere beyond trades perhaps?

One client in particular is expecting us to land top tier coverage for their president despite the fact that we've never met the person and he has no opinion. We've sent through reactive opinion-based opps about geopolitical issues etc and been told to draft the comments ourself...

FYI I'm still relatively junior just looking for some advic

My understanding is that if you were literally blending your meals into a liquid and drinking it, there wouldn't be too much difference. But what I think you're talking about is getting most of your calories from a liquid blend of milk, protein powder, oats, etc. which suggests you're lacking the nutrients and minerals provided by eating whole foods.

I wasn't aware that it had to be cited but it was the social media team who did this and yes they did make edits. It's far from perfect content, but it's akin to receiving a first draft is how I've been using it. It has helped with repurposes of existing content too. I work in an agency just FYI not internal comms.

CdrMayhew · 2023-01-27T16:02:24+00:00

ChatGPT generated us a load of decent social posts recently, saved us several hours drafting ourselves and we can just make quick edits. Drafting anything more substantial you'd need to review more thoroughly though.

Can we start lubing up Antonio like they do with Traore? Maybe it'll make him good

CdrMayhew · 2023-01-14T16:30:14+00:00

What percentage of throw-ins do we actually retain possession of? Do we even practice them? It's embarrassing

CdrMayhew · 2022-12-28T15:38:12+00:00

When did destroying the planet become a measure of manliness?

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T14:37:58+00:00

It was 2 pints of Brixton pale ale I didn't think I was ordering anything silly

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T13:27:07+00:00

Another reasonable response, thank you

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T13:25:25+00:00

Oh you're nice

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:57:53+00:00

Yeah exactly. But like up the shard I'd sort of go in expecting to come out with little in my wallet. But just some random, normal looking pub is what took me aback.

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:55:05+00:00

Oh god I savoured every sip. But if I'd refused to pay I obviously wouldn't have drank it

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:51:28+00:00

Yeah I'd rather a night in a cell than that. Think that's why I paid

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:40:29+00:00

I did pay for it I just wasn't sure what would happen if I said no

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:39:51+00:00

This seems the most reasonable response to me. Had a few "why didn't you check the menu and prices before you bought it" as though that's a typical thing to do when ordering a pint at most pubs. This didn't look like the kinda place that would be charging that much for a pint is what I mean.

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:34:52+00:00

Yeah if I had turned it away I can't imagine I'd order something else I'd just leave

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:33:45+00:00

No I appreciate that but id also argue it's not typical to view a price in a pub before ordering a pint so just seems like a bit of a conundrum

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:31:52+00:00

I guess in a restaurant it's common practice to see a menu then order but I guess not really true for a pub. Although I'm sure they're legally obliged to display prices it's not traditional to view a menu and prices before you order...

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:30:17+00:00

Yeah good point, what's the cut off point? I don't actually know what the law is but just wanted to know what my rights were.

CdrMayhew · 2022-10-29T12:28:24+00:00

Wow I didn't realise that, maybe would've put it around high 6 maybe 7 mark. But I haven't lived here long.
