Tell me if this is normal/okay: I’m in a Sr AD role and wrote a concept for us to shoot, promoting an experience that was my idea. It was well thought out and I wrote a script. The day of the shoot, my CD decided to direct the talent with my script. I was on set thinking “wtf” and wasn’t sure if that was normal or not. The worst part is that they totally tanked with the direction and we ended up scraping the footage and the idea. I feel like if I wrote it, I should have directed. Thoughts?

I’m considering a move to Omnicom from Publicis- would love to hear from current/former Omnicom people how the vibes are over there.

My contract was unsurprisingly not extended this week after I couldn't keep from calling the CD out when he was blaming a junior for a mistake that was fully his own. "You should have known I mistakenly approved that because it's not up to my standards!" after the client didn't like his concept, spit flying as he was screaming at her. I at least wish it meant I was a good person but I just hate the guy. The job market is good, right? Right??

The match nobody has been waiting for!

Thoughts on being asked to work on a holiday? How do you say no?
