Saw this in a job ad: 'This job isn’t for everyone, or just anyone. The pace is fast, expectations are high and resources are always constrained. Trying to build the future is never easy and doing it remotely has made it harder. You’ll see things that need addressing and you'll experience constraints that you'll find restrictive, but you'll fight hard to get things changed for the better. And you’ll do it smiling (most of the time) and people will love you for it. Eventually.'

I worked for a marketing firm. Things seemed great for the first few months but then their true colors came out. I brought up concerns about how I was being treated, and that I didn’t feel the work I produced was valued, or appreciated. I ran social media for 6+ accounts, did graphic work, video editing, copywriting, social media strategies, client proposals, analyzed data, research, the list goes on. When I brought up these concerns, their response was “we will agree to disagree.” Didn’t seem appropriate or professional in any way shape or form. Yesterday, I was working on a content calendar, and making some edits for the client. My boss called me because she saw that I was in the document….doing my job, and she decided it would be appropriate to yell at me and give me attitude….all for doing my job and what I was hired to do…
