For 9 years we’ve been ranting about why advertising is a
piece of shit... and the fact is that there are some great things in
advertising we overlook or simply don’t focus on because there’s so much to
deal with.
So yeah, for 9 years we’ve preached the contrary... though I
insist, advertising doesn’t suck.
I’ve met some of the most important people in my life thanks
to advertising. You come into contact with interesting people, you learn a lot
of a lot of industries, there’s never a dull moment, you learn to deal with a
myriad of human tempers. In essence, it’s a whole life you can experience in a
couple of years... it isn’t always pleasant but it is interesting.
So here’s to advertising. There’s a chance I return to the
fray soon and all I can say is that as long as there’s a challenge, there’s a
reason to be thankful. Some things might be stupid, some people may be full of
shit... still... there’s shit to do and you can have fun doing it.
Having worked elsewhere and in other industries, I miss the
camaraderie, the kinship and the bonds you form in advertising. When you find a
special group of people, you are well aware that you could take them into
combat and that you’d all make it. I had that happen twice and I will never
forget knowing I have people who had my back.
The work in theory is fascinating and has some days that are
borderline awesome. So here’s to those moments. Sure there are other sucky
ones, still... the good outweighs the bad and if you can overcome the
challenges, which there are many... advertising can even be gratifying.
For me, I met Me, Restrictions Apply and Travis Fkr through
advertising... just that is reason enough to be thankful for my stints in
advertising. Through the test of time, I’ve been able to realize what true
friends feel like and I was invited 9 years ago to partake in this lambasting
of an industry.
The fact remains, there are some very shitty facts about
advertising... but if the long nights, the frustrations, the physical exhaustions
and conditions I developed are the price to pay for friends like my WAS
brethren, so fucking be it.
Cheers friends. One more post to go.

Thank you!
Some business owners don’t even hire an accountant or a bookkeeper until they think something is wrong with their finances. It happens every time, why not hire an accountant. You can check out accountant near me they provide quality accounting services.
