Props to J x 2

I can't believe it's been almost a week since I last blogged! It's been a little busy at the ol' ad shop. But I'm feeling really inspired by the last few weeks. Almost two years ago, I lost my job at a larger agency due to a layoff - and took a job at a newer start-up. I went from a supervisory-level position to the role of an entry-level ad girl. I had to make a lot of compromises to survive the transition and culture shock. It's been a rough road.

But within the last month - and more recently over the last few weeks - some changes have been in the works that are allowing me to regain some of what I lost. Including the addition of some really smart people whom I'm proud to call my peers and teammates. It's amazing what a few changes - in role, culture and smart people surrounding you - can do to make you happier in such a short time. My persepctive is really different than it was at the beginning of 07.

So here's a shout-out to friends who have recently made my life a little sweeter: Fortunator and Badway. It's a pleasure!
