I just met with Amelia Torode and she suggested I get in touch with you. I'm looking for a first position in an agency at the moment, interested in getting into planning though also seriously looking at AM positions as well. I'd be interested in meeting up and having a coffee/drink. you can reach me on willem_vdh at hotmail.co.uk<BR/><BR/>On the brain foody side of things, there's an exhibition at the Imperial War Museum I'm planning to go see that looks pretty cool "Weapons of Mass Communication: War posters" and apparently it's free.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984500188575237413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28330263.post-59657706310429239062007-11-09T11:51:00.000+00:002007-11-09T11:51:00.000+00:00Totally agree.

Why Account Handlers can't be effective and have that food for thought at the same time? I'll never understand this huge gap that separates account handling and any sort of thinking.<BR/>And obviously, there's the long hours at work issue....<BR/>happy days!<BR/><BR/>I still like working in adland, by the way ;-)Georginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00135380891286214120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28330263.post-81689501561539922007-11-07T16:55:00.000+00:002007-11-07T16:55:00.000+00:00You should go to the King Tut exhibition at the O2...You should go to the King Tut exhibition at the O2.

Because challenging people often criticize the work of people, that are doing their job for many years. Many years in that they cultivated many many filters without acknowledging that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296674800044838997noreply@blogger.com
