So am I the only one that works in an "integrated" agency that feels like those above him are clueless to the world of interactive? If I hear "the way we do it in traditional..." ONE MORE TIME, I think I may punch a baby. Seriously traditional old timers...WAKE UP and lean on the people you hired or leave them the HELL alone and let them do their jobs.

never ran into that, but traditional and print people def have a different way of thinking about EVERYTHING than interactive and dev people.

Yeah, the problem here is that they are trying to build an interactive division with leadership that has been traditionally minded for close to 20 years...and using a traditional account team. Never works but all I can do is hunker down, do my work and watch it all burn.

every great agency needs a technical lead to mitigate between traditional thoughts and the way the web really works. i think this position is always over looked. then again, most agencies aren't "great".
- I completely agree. Our "tech lead" is a guy that BS'd his way into the job and is only good for scheduling pointless meetings.thedesignloft
- that sucks. someone needs to be in charge of what's really going on.anxiousarms

I want a job as Agency Clown.
to bring some happiness into the whole thing.- I think every agency should have a rodeo clown to distract clients when things botch.

Step out from the surging masses and make yourself a master.

you're only one interview away from telling your boss to stop leaning on you, and maybe an interview away from asking him to get you some coffee.
touch of sugar, plenty of cream.
- I WANT him to lean on me. We were hired to run the interactive but are not able to do our jobs.thedesignloft
- well, the point still stands.
leaning preferences aside.SteveJobs
