The Price of Anti-Social Media Behavior.
"I am nobody working nowhere."
"Nothing at Nothing."
Believe it or not, these are actual profile descriptions on individuals' social media accounts. If you ever get bitter about the industry, don't take your frustrations out on your profile. If you need to vent, do it in an appropriate arena - comment sections for related articles, blogs, etc.
But be tactful. Show restraint. Don't burn bridges. Once you click "send," it's out there forever.
I almost recommended one of those individuals with the above profile for a freelance position. Who's going to hire the angry ad man?
People still don't realize anti-social media behavior can cost you - even after you take it down.
Think before you type.
