How to make friends in advertising


I got a ton of traffic here recently because of a link from THE BLOG OF TIM FERRIS, thanks to Ryan Holiday, who wrote this new book he wants you to buy.

The post references the now infamous Sasha Grey American Apparel ads that ran on this site many moons ago. Look how racy they are here.

I'm not sure what my point is. Something about how things have changed, or how they haven't.

I still like the ads. I don't think they're shocking.

I think they're cool because they show not enough of too much.

I get email


Hey Susannah, regarding your article on working, from home, I was wondering what your thoughts are on whether I should consider taking my cousin's opinion to take one of those work from home jobs, I graduated high school last year, I never actually worked when I was in high school, but recently at her place, she was basically just talking to me about it, so I can get a job. So I am just wondering if I do this, should I put this on a resume, or would it look ridiculous. And would it look like a good first job, or should I just seek a regular job at like McDonalds, Best Buy, etc. By the way I just turned 20 a few months ago, and my cousin's in her 40's. She works for this company: [redacted], I think the company name is [redacted].

Regards,
