I was an unpaid intern copywriter for an ad agency after college. They had me come in 3 days a week with an hour and twenty minute commute each way just to write copy for clients while everyone else sat in “meetings” filled with good food and booze. Long story short, it turned into a paid internship , I was assigned a large client for us who was placing a Super Bowl ad that year with a huge ad budget. I wrote the scripts, headlines, tag lines, and body copy for their projected campaign. They chose to go with a family oriented TV ad. I handed in all my work, took some vacation time and was sent an email while on vacation saying the client is going to use my work from the pitch but that they (the ad agency) had to scale back on payroll due to losing another large client in the process. They got rid of all 4 of us interns and while watching the Super Bowl a few months later, I saw the ad air and heard the script that I wrote with minor changes made. It was a great resume builder but seeing how shady some comapnies are can really deter you from the industry that you went to school for.
Once again, more proof that skiers are usually pretentious ham cabins when it comes to snowboarders. Johnny Tsunami would have never let that fucking happen…Never…everrrr!
I’m a former Division 1 lacrosse player (not something to brag about) and let me tell you, you’re making a mistake with about 85% of them unless they are Canadian because the odds are that they’re probably cool.
Please strive for better mates so that you don’t mistakenly reproduce with one of these people and collectively bring down the general IQ level of humanity which ultimately threatens our survival as advanced beings with the ability to think critically. You have the power to decide our future so don’t choose a meat missle of a person.
Thanks for the kind words. Yeah it was a douchey statement in appearance but I wasn’t being serious and I was trying to make fun of myself because a lot of people on Instagram think “likes” actually matter when that’s not usually the case. I had no idea I could link my IG on here so thank you for that.
Haha Todd relax over there it was a joke and your absolutely right about the selfie statement. I was referring more to the fact that something like photography as a side gig pays well overtime.
Todd, just go to my Instagram feed (@ri_ft) where I probably get more likes on one photo than some people have on their entire profile to make yourself feel better #photographypays

Good shit Dan. Looks like there’s more dark sarcasm joining up which is what I like to see
Too far, too far.
Dear author of this piece,
I’m a former Division 1 lacrosse player (not something to brag about) and let me tell you, you’re making a mistake with about 85% of them unless they are Canadian because the odds are that they’re probably cool.
Please strive for better mates so that you don’t mistakenly reproduce with one of these people and collectively bring down the general IQ level of humanity which ultimately threatens our survival as advanced beings with the ability to think critically. You have the power to decide our future so don’t choose a meat missle of a person.
Love,
The human race

At least check in at your arrival airport because ya know…there’s no guarantees in life and stuff.
That’s the price you pay for glory
Nah they were out of comebacks so I went to LL Cool Jay but he didn’t wanna call that one a comeback.
I liked it.

And start getting good at something else to get out of that cubicle.
But seriously, photography is a solid outlet for extra income and can turn into something more.
Haha that wasn’t supposed to be taken seriously.

You’re better off trying Meth, more economical in terms of market price and it lasts much longer.
Every marriage announcement is insufferable the only thing I care about is the words “open” and “bar” on the invitation
Yeah sorry, I’ll lighten things up a bit. The dark sarcasm has it’s time and place.
