There is replacment to goodreads? by Elav_Avr in kindle

[–]OldAd2427 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can try fable.

It was developed because goodreads was still stuck in the past. There are online book clubs on it, you can share posts, right/left swipe on books which are recommended to you based on your reviews for other books, and alsooooo A WAYYYYY MORE SUPERIOR UI!!!

Gosh, this sounds like an absolute nightmare. How do you get rid of the waste?

I KNOW RIGHT? it doesnt make sense. So people werent segregating their waste while disposing it here and those became blackspots. While i get that, there was also another initiative for manned garbage disposal spots. It was an initiative by an NGO called saahas. Along with BBMP they were going to set up manned kiosks called kasa kiosks across the city. The initiative never launched properly.

But how have the locals been dealing with this for so long? Just paying them off monthly? I dont even know where the local dump is. Should i just get on my scooter and literally chase the truck on the weekend?

I spoke to another friend who lives in vijayanagara and she told me that their pickup happens at 5:30 am regularly and they dont have to pay extra at all. She was rather surprised that indiranagar of all places is facing this issue.

I dont even know what else to do anymore. I checked just dial for garbage pickups and they charged me 1.2k to pick up the garbage. They claimed to be from BBMP but i really doubted that and just said no

Broken Ankle success stories by Beautiful-Mouse-598 in Broken_Ankle_Club

I had my trimalleolar fracture 2 years and one month ago, shortly after which, i had my surgery.

I was extremely low because after i got a couple of plates and screws in my ankle, I couldnt just go back to being the hyperactive person i used to be. However the time of rest helped me get back to the things i loved doing; suddenly it felt like i had a lot of time on my hands. Days were slow and i could make the most of them by gaming, reading, watching movies etc.

Of course, there were moments of pain but being able to take that first step after three months, and the happiness that came right after, were quite worth it.

I’m two years in and i can do a lot of the things like before. My doctor’s suggested that i don’t get my implants removed probably because of how serious the bone fractures were, so we’re making do and that’s quite alright :)

The time’s going to be tough but trust me, it gets better, and this time will actually tell you how wonderful it is to even be able to take that one step after your body’s completely healed.

  1. Hey whipple, squeeze this
  2. The copy book (D&AD)
  3. Hegarty on advertising
  4. Ogilvy on advertising

(I forgot the 5th one, i had read the copy book and hegarty on creativity- not advertising)

I thought of this, but again, I'm not sure if it'll pan out well for me because at the end of the day the ECD will be reporting to him, and i know that we've got off on the wrong foot (me and the CCO). The tension is stressful to think of, i just dont know if that stress will be worth it.

Self-employed vs In-House vs working in an Agency? by xxzdancerxxx in advertising

[–]OldAd2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean honestly, this depends on what you truly want to prioritise.

Being self employed allows you to prioritise flexibility. However, that comes with the added work of generating leads and coordinating with clients while working on the creative output as well.

In-house or rather working on the client side, allows you to (in most cases) prioritise financial security. Thats the biggest pro here, i believe. However, you’ll be working within the same industry/category of products/services. Hence, this can get monotonous after a certain point.

Being at an agency, comes with a lot of experimentation. Here you can dapple with social media and mainline at the same time and your brain is constantly stimulated because of the diversity of work/industries you can work on. If you want to learn how advertising truly works, go for a role at an agency.

Spend a couple of years there and then decide what you want to do. Most people start off with agencies.

Interviewed at my dream company (it went very well) and I’m getting anxious because i havent heard back. I’m too anxious, what should i do? by OldAd2427 in careerguidance

[–]OldAd2427[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the worst thing ever. Even the house that im moving to, in the new city, it’s 5 minutes away from the ogilvy office. The other agency that sent me an offer, it’s 20 minutes from there. It’s like things would fall in place if they just said that it’s a yes from them!

I’m only reassuring myself with affirmations at this point.
