My two and a half weeks at an Ad Agency

I wasn't satisfied with the work that was being done because it was like just trying to get over with whatever they want to launch or produce just for the sake of marketing. There was no depth or substance in it and 95% of marketing and unfortunately, at least in Pakistan I've seen that they obviously I think it happens everywhere, but they advertise according to the target audience but it depends on the quality of work as well and obviously then the environment is toxic

Part 2

Just like when you fall in love with someone, but later on you realize you thought you were in love. You wanted this person for the rest of your life, but this is not the one you want to be with. You have to experience something to realize that this is not for you. And that's what happened with me. So in a way, it was a good thing that I realized that

And like you have seen the film The Black Swan where on the outside it seems like such a beautiful imagery of various characters performing on the stage. But the darkness that they are reflecting in the play is ironically exhibiting at the backstage. And the audience is just looking at what they are projecting, but they don't realize that all that nuance, the emotions, they are coming from somewhere. They are real. And people usually don't share about their career

And I don't know how they even get the funds, but obviously they have such big clients, even if they are few for a long, long period of time. So they get their work done somehow. Anyways, it's like they say, if you can't beat them, you might as well join them. But I couldn't beat them. But I didn't join them either

So I was a bit taken aback. I was like, oh, my God, why are you firing me? Although deep down I was feeling happy and relieved that I was like, good ridden, I don't have to go anymore. Like a child doesn't want to go to school because I was hating it. But your ego gets offended. That, why is he firing me?
