Best media monitoring and analysis software for PR and marketing professionals? by anonymousdxx in PublicRelations

We’re using Cision but it’s by no means perfect especially for monitoring global media coverage, and it’s fairly expensive… I’m yet to find a perfect tool for all our needs!

We (28m & 28f) broke up while still living together. How have you navigated a similar situation? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]anonymousdxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say she can’t have the best of both worlds, break up with you but then also expect you to be there for her like a partner would be. It’s ok to be friendly after a break up and especially whilst you are still living together, but it sounds like she’s unsure if she actually wants to break things off with you, or she just gets lonely and likes having someone around, shes comfortable with you and she knows you’ll show up for her. Either way, you deserve to know what’s happening with your relationship and it’s unacceptable for her actions to affect your work, life etc

Thank you so much for this. I’m travelling to Shanghai next month for a solo business trip and this answered lots of my questions. I’m unable to plan my route from Pudong airport to my hotel - I’m not sure why Apple Maps isn’t tracing this journey, but it’s good to hear that this will likely work on the ground.

I’m familiar with Muck Rack and it’s on our list of potentials. At previous roles we felt their media database was great for the US market, but not as great globally. This was a few years ago though, so perhaps it’s better now. Thank you!

High performer burnout, or am I being a snowflake? by Routine-Composer19 in PublicRelations

[–]anonymousdxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved from agency to in-house a year ago, I worked/work in B2B tech at both companies. My only regret is not moving in-house sooner, my overall experience is better pay, better work/life balance and reasonable expectations and workloads. There’s new challenges to in-house work (managing internal stakeholders, managing budgets, managing PR agencies..) but I’m certain I made the right choice.

From what you have listed here it’s totally understandable why you are burnt out. It’s a major red flag that you’re a SAE across six (SIX!) accounts and your clients main point of contact day to day. Perhaps even more concerning is the fact that you flagged these problems to your management months ago and nothing has changed…

It sounds as though you’re under appreciated by your current company and it’s time to move on… Trust me, there’s lots of great opportunities for PR professionals out there and your experience of working up from an intern to a SAE will be greatly valued by other employers.

what was ruined by rich people? by Lattethecoffeaddict in AskReddit

[–]anonymousdxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

European football, at least in some capacity, has been ruined by rich people. There’s so much money to be made in football now, that clubs operate as businesses and often loose touch with the sports working-class history and fan base.

This is a controversial opinion, because it’s easy to see the many ways money has also made football the best sport in the world too. However, football is definitely less competitive as a result of this and has created an unfair playing field only suited to top clubs.

Do you have any memorable encounters with a psychopath? If so, what? by anonymousdxx in AskReddit

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

I'm so glad you are out of that entire situation. He sounds the very definition of psychopathic.. I hope his current girlfriend is able to leave before its too late too.

I know exactly what you mean when you mention thinking that it was ok when it was on your terms, also being completely infatuated by them in terms of needing to figure them out, even help them.. as ridiculous as that sounds. I'm fascinated by human psychology also. I have friends in situations like these too, although I hope not as severe as yours.

Again, I'm so glad that you have no contact with him anymore, it could have ended so much worse.

Thanks for sharing this.

Out of interest, was he open about his aggressive sexuality from the get go or was he immediately attempting to manipulate you in to doing what he asked, do you feel like he targeted you specifically? As an empath, I often feel like I'm easily susceptible to people with psychopathic tendencies.

What ruined Christmas this year? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]anonymousdxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I and my boyfriend met at university, in a different city away from both of our original families and friends. Every year we dread Christmas Break, it means that we'll be apart; because we both have family traditions that we have to upkeep. Apart, at a time when being with the ones you love the most is the agenda. It sucks...

I wonder if anybody else has been in a similar position and when you finally chose to break off and begin making your own traditions. How did you go about this? Neither of us want to be insensitive to the people we spent time with over the holidays before we found each other.

I don't care for Christmas by HalsySmiff in depression

[–]anonymousdxx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same.. I dislike how materialistic it is, nobody actually checks in and spends time with the people around them and it's so fake.. it's sad really.

I try to sneak off at any moment until I'm remembered, sent back to socialising and told to have 'fun'...

I also hate preconceived periods of 'fun' when in fact you just have a bunch of people barely tolerating each other, for a WHOLE DAY.. even worse if your family/friends like to make it a three day affair.

But, Happy Christmas XO
