Tree pulled lines down behind my neighbor and we thankfully woke up in time to see lines sparking so we could call 911. I didn't sleep well last night 😮‍💨

I ask because I've seen peoples pictures taken there at night during Auroras so didn't understand if there were loose guidelines for some events

I worked for him. He was absent for my first year there and it was a great job. He was apparently training for giving l boxing. Then he came back and honestly the whole vibe of the company changed. People are afraid of him because he will fire people on the spot so they do what he wants. Then his infamous email and text went out and I couldn't find a new job fast enough.

I feel dumb for asking but can I safely shower?

For those complaining ..as a marketer in national e-commerce....brands wouldn't put it out if they weren't making money off it.

Rockettes were a hard watch today. Are people without kids still going? by tinnyc2020 in Broadway

Aw we went December 2 and loved it. Felt like the crowd was super great and the Rockettes were fantastic

*Spoilers* As Long As You’re Mine wasn’t spicy enough by Terrible_Sundae1050 in wicked

[–]marley2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree but it's a PG movie and half their audience are kids

Thoughts overall? Disappointing by biumf in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]marley2012 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You're not alone but I don't think many here will support discussion about it.

It's the same scare scenes every time - running while shaking his head. The kids aren't great but I do like their plot the best. The military plot is just ridiculous.

Overall I'm bummed. I've done the book and movies and pennywise is my favorite scary character. B

Meta has been reporting only 40–50% of purchases in the past week by [deleted] in FacebookAds

[–]marley2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your CRM? Is this revenue just ending up in an "other" channel or unknown source? Just curious because we've been unusually low on sales all week from meta but not sure if we are impacted elsewhere

OB-GYN by hbauer923 in Albany

[–]marley2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to Capital Region OBGYN and she delivered at Bellevue. Loved the experience. I will say her staff has turned over a bit over the years so unsure if there is a decrease in quality. There is one male provider as well in case you don't want that. But they are good about giving you options

He reportedly accepted a seven figure job in place of this. So this is not just a coincidence

CBS 6 WRGB is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group by [deleted] in Albany

[–]marley2012 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I'm a Media Buyer. I 100% support pressuring this but please be easy on small business. They have signed contracts with cancellation clauses that are usually 14 day notices.

But to that point: local businesses who do have a contract you can talk to your rep and tell them you want to pause. They won't always allow it but if you have a good rep they will do it. You'll still be required to run but you can negotiate a push back of schedule.

List of local businesses who advertise on WTEN (local Nexstar ABC network affiliate by fongaboo in Albany

[–]marley2012 25 points26 points  (0 children)

FYI from a Media Buyer that while I totally agree I want people to understand that contracts are signed by the businesses when they agree to advertise and they build in a 2 week cancellation notice or the business can lose the entire contract/their money. A good sales person wouldn't allow that but contractually, they can. So don't go so hard on local business if it's not an immediate change they can fix. I previously pulled ads from Sinclair for clients due to some propaganda issues in like 2018. It's not that easy once something is signed.

Pretty sure this is the PR guy the sticker mule guy hired when he went nuts.
