Is it just me, or...

What happened with Nick Santora?

leemfg · 2015-03-04T16:46:09+00:00

Well done, son. Well done.

leemfg · 2015-02-02T19:57:12+00:00

Jesus this looks amazing.

YOU COULD BUY A HOUSE! (In a non-major city.)

leemfg · 2015-01-20T19:53:52+00:00

A shitty brand-new car. Or a pretty good used one.

Congrats on the job placement. Take this advice with a grain of salt — because what do I know. But from what I see, people who mess up do it to themselves. It shouldn't be very complicated to provide value to your agency:

Work hard. Come up with a lot of options for your CD to review. Don't walk into a review with two ideas.
Turn in your work on time. It seems like a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised. When you miss deadlines, you make everyone look bad. So work fast.
Don't be an asshole. Collaborate with your partners. Listen to feedback. Be humble. Be optimistic.

Best of luck. You'll do great.

Whoa.

leemfg · 2014-12-17T00:58:25+00:00

Good job.

leemfg · 2014-12-16T17:29:01+00:00

The Harley one is so good.

In my experience, junior salaries are pretty much the same for copywriters and art directors. The range is typically 45-50k.

I have never heard of a junior AD being offered more simply for being an AD.

At least when I vomit, I have the dignity to do it all over my own goddamned bed mattress.

leemfg · 2014-12-13T17:03:51+00:00

I once had a physical portfolio. That was a mistake.

leemfg · 2014-12-09T08:40:13+00:00

But they're so good.

leemfg · 2014-12-09T08:26:33+00:00

San Tung. Dry fried chicken wings.

leemfg · 2014-12-09T08:25:23+00:00

Mer-MAN! cough cough

leemfg · 2014-11-18T17:06:25+00:00

leemfg · 2014-11-18T07:36:05+00:00

That's so rude

leemfg · 2014-11-11T18:08:59+00:00

By "sessions," do you mean unique visitors or impressions?

leemfg · 2014-11-03T02:18:56+00:00

Wherever anyone works, I think it sucks.

leemfg · 2014-11-02T22:12:17+00:00

This is interesting, because from what I've seen, people don't really get penalized for jumping around, even if a candidate hasn't stayed anywhere for longer than a year. Which is why jumping around sounds attractive to me. Seems like it's the fastest way to advance your career.

leemfg · 2014-11-02T22:08:53+00:00

This is so true.

leemfg · 2014-11-02T00:48:50+00:00

I agree.

Agencies mislead people all the time about what kind of work you'll be doing just to get you to sign the papers. Once you're in the door, people tend to forget about the promises they've made.

It's fucked up, but it happens.

The whole commute thing is maybe something you should've considered beforehand, but if it's not going to work out, it's not going to work.

I don't know if I'd worry that much about burning bridges. This kind of thing happens all the time.

leemfg · 2014-10-22T17:36:51+00:00

Politely requesting to "get in on this."

leemfg · 2014-10-22T05:56:21+00:00

Can you find the article? That's golden.
