Hittin' The Bricks

In lieu of the extra long and bitter post crafted a month and a half ago when I found my job being advertised on Career Builder, (Bilingual? Gimme a break!) I will say only that I'm out there again, ready to do that thing I do, though I'm still trying to figure out exactly what that is.

Meanwhile, take my card.

  • Bueno! ¡No puedo esperar para redecorate de una manera altamente festiva! También, celebre por favor la diversidad no tomando la grapadora agencia-proveída con usted. ¡Gracias!

  • Being other-employed is highly overrated, anyway. Try the German market - English-speaking copywriters are in high demand here. That's because all advertisement is in some weird kind of English. German is uncool, it seems.

  • All advertising, I meant. Speaking of weird English.

  • It's in draft mode. Too brutal to post.

  • ok, next question. when you discovered the career builder ad, were you searching on company time? that would be major irony. at least you didn't apply for the position.

  • I had detected some distance with my colleagues who work on site with the client in Miami, who had been miffed at me for some time after I expressed an opinion he found offensive (I basically called him a time-wasting meeting holder in a nice way) so I did a "copywriter miami" search and it was pretty obvious. The client (CMO of a healthcare organization) now goes on my list of fat assholes I hope to never encounter again.

    And yes, on company time.

  • when you basically called him a time-wasting meeting holder in a "nice" way, did it include the words fat asshole? that might have been the deal breaker.
