FMP’s 2007 year in review
I’ve probably said it already, but 2007 has been one heck of a roller coaster year for me. Being laid off from my job of nearly 8 years (an eternity in the advertising business, where creatives typically change jobs every 18-24 months) was quite a blow, not only financially but to my ego as well. I fully realize it wasn’t personal; the agency lost a huge chunk of business and my entire team was laid off together. But it’s been rough all the same. As someone who already struggles with self-esteem issues, being expendable was a proverbial kick in the family jewels. But looking back on this year, I wouldn’t change it one bit. I’ve learned to live on...
