The truth about working in an ad agency
1. You work weird (night) shifts...
Just like prostitutes.
2. They pay you to make the client happy...
Just like a prostitute.
3. The client pays a lot of money, but your employer keeps almost

Just like a prostitute.
4. You are rewarded for fulfilling the client's dreams...
Just like a prostitute.
5. Your friendships fall apart and you end up hanging out with
people in the same profession as you...
Just like a prostitute.
6. When you have to meet the client you always have to be perfectly
groomed...
Just like a prostitute.
7. But when you go back home it seems like you are coming back from
hell...
Just like a prostitute.
8. The client always wants to pay less but expects incredible things

Just like a prostitute.
9. When people ask you about your job, you have difficulties to explain it...
Just like a prostitute.
10. Everyday when you wake up, you say: "I'm not going to spend the rest of my life doing this."
JUST LIKE A PROSTITUTE!!!
