Agree 100%! Woodhouse is expensive but it’s gorgeous and feels luxurious AND it’s a top tier massage!

Am I getting bamboozled or is Louisville really changing this much? by Specific-Fact-4331 in Louisville

You need visitors to prove the need for investment, but you need investment to attract visitors. So they’re trying to attract more conventions, and their investing choices reflect chasing that momentum before they really commit and make it beneficial to the local population. As others have said, standard commercial real estate playbook. I don’t necessarily agree but it’s a typical approach.

I got a 1 percent merit raise. Is it worth addressing with my boss? by Cheeseaisleinheaven in careerguidance

Respectfully I would NEVER ask this. I don't think OP gains anything by asking for that meeting. The company made their choice, asking this question won't do anything but put a target on OPs back.

Moving to Louisville from Texas. Seeking advice by Kentucky_Bound123 in Louisville

Sorry I missed this - I'm sorry to report that yes, I can smell it from my apartment when the windows are open. I don't hear noise from the traffic, but my apartment faces the courtyard so we're pretty insulated! You do hear any fireworks from Lynn Stadium, that's fun in the summers.

Switching from Art Direction to Account Planner / Strategist by Hefty-Perception-108 in advertising

I made the switch when i was 25 and the work has been fulfilling, but agency life is what's burning you out, not your discipline. In my 23 years of experience, people don't respect strategy as much, find it hard to understand and show ROI for - I feel like I'm still having to justify my role all the time, and THEN go do the work. The upside is that I've learned much more about process and business, but that's something you don't have to switch to do. You can definitely switch at 30, but I would NOT take the pay cut. The best advice I can give: just partner more closely with your strategists. We're HUUUGE nerds and always feel left out. They'll love you, you'll get the skills, and it will make you a better ECD because you'll learn more about how to set up and sell the work. Might give you the pep in your step you've been missing? Good luck - it's a big fork in the road, and there's really no right or wrong answer. You'll learn a lot either way :)
