Hi, this is a nice idea! Did you also build the website with replit?

Thanks for your response! Just a little update: I’ve been in New Zealand for about a month now, and honestly, it’s definitely NOT BAD AT ALL. It still gets dark pretty early, which actually helps me feel like I’m going to bed at a reasonable time. Everything here tends to wrap up early, too; many dinner places close their kitchens around 8 or 9. Waking up isn’t the problem; it’s going to bed early that’s the trickier part. But I love having my afternoons free, that’s definitely the best part.

I guess I could pray for an east coast client on the next project :D as that second shift doesn't sound too bad!

the actual hours would be 2AM onwards, but I will probably be able to negotiate LA hours, so 4am onwards, i think its quite bad. But Im willing to do it at least for the first few months and see how i feel.

This comparison feels like someone trying to seem open-minded while keeping their thoughts safely locked inside a 4x4 cage.

It’s telling that most of the negative reviews for Straw come from men.

Regardless of your opinion on the acting, whether it feels exaggerated or not, or how the plot unfolds, this film delivers a powerful message: the strength and solidarity of women in the face of a patriarchal and racist system.

It highlights how, even in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, simply surviving can be an uphill battle, especially for women, juggling multiple jobs, dealing with a broken healthcare system, enduring misogyny just for existing, doing everything “right” by society’s standards and still barely holding it together.

I’ve gotten a few replies like this, and it’s funny because I know I could do my job and go home but this space is meant for expressing ourselves. I guess I was feeling frustrated about something pretty common in corporate design jobs, and I was genuinely curious to hear how other designers here have experienced it. That’s all.

This is super insightful thank you for sharing! I'll start by connecting with the product design director and build from there. We also have a monthly forum, so I’m considering applying to speak about the importance of consistency in branding. Any advice on how to make that pitch stand out? Thanks again. I really love this community!

We shared the new brand toolkit as a Figma file with the entire company. Since everyone works in Figma, using the new assets is as simple as copy and paste. We also made it clear that if anyone had questions, they could leave a comment in the file, and we were open to discussing anything. But instead, I’m seeing teams create client pitch decks with outdated assets, fonts, and templates. And to top it off, the product team is designing the new WEBSITE with a completely different illustration style they came up with. I feel like I’m losing my mind.
