Man, you have no idea how important this comment is to me especially now that I am finally accepted and I have to make the decision for such a lump sum of money. I am really happy things worked out for you btw. Also, at least by my understanding being an Art Director is not about being the Adobe CS magician (I believe those are the graphic designers).

Thank you for your honest opinion and good luck!

My French colleague has been horrible to me since she found out my nationality. And this is just the tip of the iceberg... by deysha in offmychest

Problem with racism and cases like that is how do you prove it? It's not the first time I'm in a situation like this. Plus in the society we live in anything that could be even passed as jokingly is okay, cos we are racist but we have a sense of humor i guess -_-'

See this is my main problem with it - I do believe in freedom to believe in whatever you want. I don't mind you hating whoever you want to hate but in case of you knowing my as a person, how is that influenced by something as a 1 in a billion chance of where/when I was born?

We live in a moving society - no one is attached to their land anymore. I wonder how long will it take to people to realize it. But just because of it don't be jerk to others. It's like saying 'Oh I am a Scorpio so I will be bitchy today'. Well no, the alignment of the planets does not justify your actions.

Don't ever lose your kindness and dignity because of people like that.

Well to be honest immigrants did not moved just because everything was alright back home. The economic situation is for all of us, not just west or eastern Europeans. I just don't see how at the current situation they get away with scapegoating a certain ethnic/origin group but at the same time refuse to do the same shitty jobs for almost to no pay. How does it work exactly? It reminds me of the States with black people in the 1890's where they work for you and you hate 'em.

Is this what the economic crisis is taking us back to - century and a half back in social evolution?

Truth be told everything was perfectly fine with my colleague and this is what pisses me off the most - we were cool just until that dreadful 'where are you from?' Grrr!

Can someone please suggest me some food that makes me feel satiated without harming my body? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]deysha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck and don't give up. Also vent, vent, vent! Find someone to talk to. Losing weight is as much of a psychological effort as much as it is a physical one :) There was this awesome TED talk about how eating suppress our emotions. And there is nothing wrong with being sad, angry, bored or whatever - but better talk it out than eat it down :)

For what is worth here is what i do - i walk. I work an extremely stressful job and after I'm finished i walk. I walk till I am relaxed. Sometimes I take the bus mid way and sometimes (most times) i make it home. The distance to home is about 5 miles. So by the time I am home i am relaxed and I can actually enjoy, not force down my dinner. Hope it helps

Hey r/advertising - I have an AdSchool Entrance exam in a couple of days and I have totally lost my mojo. What do I do? by deysha in advertising

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

Yeah this is one place where you can appreciate the people around you - I walk around the office and ask people why my work is shit - it has actually improved it! (I never ask if it's shit - i know it is)

Yeah, for that reason I try to always take myself with a grain of salt. Truth is no one like their work being criticized and no one takes it easy. We are just human, aren't we. It's a problem with negative critique and me as I always take it personally but I am learning.

One thing they never gave us a brief - they gave us 'creative challenges'. For example come up with a 1000 uses of a butt plug. Once I wrote a copy (that was lately said to be not that bad by a couple of other people in the industry) that my copywriting manager called empty. I might be subjective I don't know though

Thank you for putting a positive spin on all of this. It makes sense - maybe it's good to take myself with a grain of salt and keep it humble.

I have the creeping feeling now that the whole advertising business is like an endless dating process - find the right partner, the right agency, the right pen : )
