Most marketing agencies are filled with the stench of fear. I'm not talking about that energized we-have-a-lot-to-do-get-moving feeling. I'm talking about "Oh, crap, what if I work here for the rest of my life?" fear, compounded by the "Oh, crap, what if the CEO decides he wants a bigger bonus this year?" fear.
I've worked at companies like that. It stinks.
So, based on my own personal experience at past jobs, here's how you too can run your very own Pit of Despair:
I was watching the Portent Horde bowl and basically have fun at our Christmas party last week, and am pretty sure that, when I die, I can be proud of one thing: I've built a great team.
It's not all me, of course. And the number of great teams I split asunder in a perfect storm of stupidity boggles the mind. But finally, I've got a bunch of people who like working together, like what they work on, and who I like to work with.
So, instead of frustration with SEO silliness, ripoff artists, plagiarism and the like, I end this post on a positive note: Portent has a great team.
Toodles, till tomorrow.
