Adland: Population Me

So my first day in "advertising" (i still say it in inverted commas too) was a hoot. Flew up to Sydney, got shown around the bakery-turned agency building, munched Thai ,traded industry yarns (people go to awards nights, drink plentifully, fall down) with the other executives, strategised a little and flew back.

There's a new language to learn, although I'm hoping my brain works out that it can replace my last four years of Sensis speak, rather than add to it. Now I'm back in my off-Greville pad and settling in amongst 5 other would be Lion-hunters and enjoying a return to a stocked fridge, Illy coffee machine and foosball table - perks that don't scale to 1500 people in a corp office. And I'm just in time for the Christmas party :)

Now back to learning about the workings of the industry.
