When I Grow Up I Wanna Work in Advertising

[filmasart]

Too long... clearly haven't worked that much in advertising...

[ivosevicmilos]

poor bastards...

[AUMOEzation]

Sadly enough from most comments I can read here, hardly anyone really understood those briliant jokes about people working in advertising which this spoof is full of... watch it couple of times, get someone who works in advertising and you will find that 50% minimal of what is said in here fits on that person... try it :3

[SudsTroll]

zzz...Seriously we like got the point by the 50th second or so...the rest of the time was just the clever idea raping itself to death!

[Your2B]

When I grow up .... I certainly will miss being a kid again.  An Unemployed father that has dreams of working again. The fabric of Republic America has disintegrated to cheap polyester.

[musicbooks22]

I like at the end she says "the envy of all her friends."

[iTHINKiSAY]

Far too long ZZZZZZ

[velvetsixx]

are u sure there isn't some law against making a kid say "i'll need a crane to pull my bloated head out of my ass" ? :P :P

[TheTBOYP]

My mother still doesn't know what I do. And, now that I think about it, I don't either.

[atanimation]

where are the animators????

[weapondrift]

Hell yeah! This was MY childhood!

[ehohkay]

smoke a lot of dope!!!

[millardforever]

This could have been funnier if it weren't so goddamn long. Apparently no one grew up to be an editor.

[WoweeZowee1995]

@millardforever that's okay, i just watch until they talk about being a copywriter, i see myself, i realize the truth in their statements, and go back to work on my novel or my spec work.

[0stanley0steamer0]

Son of a bitch! I went to school for this! Why didn't anyone tell me working in media sucks like a vacuum in a black hole? Shit! Piss on this! I'm joining the army! 

[muntelevenu5]

why isn't this about the financial sector or politics? those guys are the real assholes. advertising is lower on the ladder

[CookaChicken]

what milk do these kids drink! What cand do they prefer!?

[TICUNY]

...what about the codes to the big red button switch ?

[ThatAdMan]

I never grew up wanting to head into advertising but I ended up in it anyway, but check my channel see what advertising is really about. I've got a series just starting on it.

[berrylover]

:( I don't want to be stuck in a hellish job that this video portrays advertising/marketing careers to be... I'm an extroverted, creative people-person, that abhors cubicles! I'm a high school senior and so stressed about my future, any career suggestions?

[juhliette]

@berrylover you can be creative, more creative than you knew. you'll be able to collaborate with artists of every variety and create media that changes as the world changes, even in advance. we all complain about what we do, and maybe advertising is more stressful than an easier job, but if you don't want to do it then you won't put in the work, and nothing you make will ever be interesting, and that applies to all art.

[StopTheChoddy]

This is a Choddy. A Category 6 Spoof Marathon Choddy to be exact. All advertising people: HELP SAVE CREATIVITY. STOP THE CHODDY. stopthechoddy. org

[StewieSeedzOne]

why do they say that creative directors get washed up by the time they reach 40?

[jasooon85]

genius

[bodhi23982]

smoke a lot of dope!!! epic

[msoilu]

I've been at an ad agency for 6 years and this spot on. Its hilarious bc of how true it is. It's the mist stressful, under paid job with long hours, but damn is it fun! Where else can u wear jeans and tshirt everyday, drink a beer while working, and cuss when account And creatives are arguing about timelines. I'll never trade my agency experience for anything.

[heyitsfp]

@msoilu You speak the truth.

[megamormonman]

...I don't know whether I should like this video for telling the truth, or dislike it for how disturbing this was...

[ionlycomment1231]

"I wanna bust my but and not make a damn dime" HAHAHA too bad it's true

[karaven23]

But I wanna work in advertising! And marketing. :)) This is hilarious. And scares the hell out of me. =))

[betterversionn]

@karaven23 if you want to work in advertising, just be ready to work! agency life is no joke, we work hard and we play hard. just have direction, have pride in all you do, and be dedicated - and you'll be just fine. :-)

[jaarmen3]

what about: when I grow up I want to get on welfare and live in California, the welfare capital of the US.

[Saniaa29]

STILL wanna work in an ad agency? yea? call me crazy but... well, me too :)

[The949080]

haha the dope kid sent me over the edge XD

[bigsurbill]

When I grow up I wanna be a successful marijuana grower & sell  marijuana to all the kids that wanna grow up & be in advertising.

[exoecks]

what happened to working in disney? being a princess? a cowboy? *sigh*

[grahamwebb2000]

@exoecks working in Disney?!! Who the hell wants work for company that adulterates animation by turning it into a commercial free for all? Disney aint what it used to be.

[ItalianIrishDude]

When I grow up I'd like to interview for a position without the other 557 people interviewing for it too.

[leopcbr]

what happened to the astronauts?

[David63190]

Lets hope they don't make decisions that result in what is in my Westfield video

[edv11nas]

It hurts :/ ouch :D

[ruralohio]

Love this video, so funny, but sooooo true.

When I grow up, I want to work from home, raise my kids & keep my sanity.

[erol12345]

@dayboo it is like mob :) they decide if you stay in or get out.

[Pafeitipre]

1:16 !!!!!! hahahahahahahahaha the kid says When I grow up, I wanna smoke a lot of DOPE !!!! hahahahaha Good Kid :p so funny xD

[erol12345]

I grew up and become a copywriter and hate it everyday.

[dayboo39]

@erol12345 why dont you get out?

[haaaaaailey]

@erol12345 then do us a favour and get the fuck out because there are plenty of talented people that want your job. thanks.

[KOncrette]

1:16 :P

[chinesechopstick]

Is this an advertisement for advertising :) I work in the field, analytics. It is fun and intense, at least in my company.

[chinesechopstick]

Is this an advertisement for advertising :) I am in the field, though am doing analytics. I think it is fun and intense job, at least in my company.

[xen423]

Have people wonder what I do all day long. Epic. I've made it everyone! And I also point my finger some odd direction every time something goes wrong, especially with that copy machine.

[ohnoyoudidnt00]

ive finally decided at the age of 28 i want to study media planning,woot woot!

[ManMonkey600]

@ohnoyoudidnt00 Then you are fucking idiot....seriously do something else this shit is not worth it.

[ohnoyoudidnt00]

@ManMonkey600 true after doin some research it looks like this might not be the right choice.at all

[3986753]

its sad how they use this children to say those words sad!!!

[SuperCX94]

I can watch this every day ... it never gets old.

Love. It.

[paulinabitch]

tahts why a love advertising!♥

[kutthroat84]

OMG!!! monster!!!!

[MuttleyTV]

This vid almost put me off being an ad creative...but then again, i'm too headstrong to be brought down by yo cynicism...missed the point? Maybe...Happy as larry with life? Definately.

[stuntbikehamster]

I hope you're not going in to copy ... your spelling is rather ... dodgy. :) Definitely ...

[MuttleyTV]

@stuntbikehamster Oh noes! i beta change career imediatlyz...oh wait... spellchecker...never mind yo x

[Barnes9999]

0:58 OMG - I laughed out loud - really loud. HA HA HA.

1:27 - OMG, that one finished me off.

[boynamedsioux33]

i am in advertising and marketing. guess what, Bill Hicks was right, after a while you do feel like tonguing the barrel of a .44 caliber revolver. at least i still have that great american novel to fall back on....

[rkstrdj]

Needed that before I produced anything for clients today! Outstanding video!!

[Smuzi]

Brilliant! And spot on!!! Hahaha!!!

[ismaellover928]

XD i love this♥

[colacocala]

and starting a portfolio by myself ... aka design

work in a bank with my Maj in Finance, earn money, and keep on working on my portfolio as a hobby.

Am i fkn dreaming? fck i want this job in advertising so fkn bad, and i dont give a sh*t if it doesnt pay. I swear, everytime i write down one of my ideas its like im fvckin cuming

[blinkenlights4ever]

As long as you're passionate and at least moderately talented there, you'll make it.

All the best!

(Oh and... doing internships while you're doing your degree in marketing companies will surely help.)

[adantesoup]

lol I love this

[nd34]

Whatever I'm still heading into advertising, the most interesting , pressure intense job out there, yep that's for me alright.

[colacocala]

hey

i will make that quick:

I'm studying in finance as a major, and yet, its been 2-3 years ive been thinking (A LOT) about working in advertising. In fact i'm fvckin loaded with creative skills (more of the conceptual rather that concrete work, as i dont know much about Adobe PS etc). anyway my Q:

what are the studies needed?

My plan:

finish 10/30 credits in one year

finish 10/30 the second year

part time students (5/30 credits) for the next 2 yrs while learning PS

[DavidMPetty]

intern.

and be humble.

Interning will open more doors than any degree.

[blinkenlights4ever]

so absolutely true.

[logtype47]

Spot on.

I would request one revision however. We in the advertising industry have a preference for a very rare and obscure form powder cocaine which hails from a small seaside village along the Côte d'Azur. Very impressive... very impressive indeed.

[Casso14894]

1:16 lol

[hellow533]

when i grow up, i wana be an OBGYN docter!!

[Natt6977]

I'm not one either, but I'll take a look anyway. ;)

[cri8tor]

When I grow up, I want to own a "Health Care Insurance Agency," so I can fuck over as many dumb ass Americans as possible. Thank you Sarah Palin for keeping my dream alive.

[BlackSupraC2]

@cri8tor YES!!!!!  YES!!!!!!!

[otustata]

'a web designer - a freak - use terms that no one understands' - what are you talking about?!

haha this is hilarious!!! :D

[unemployednyer]

When I first saw this commercial I loved it - back then - found it hysterical.

A friend just sent it to NOW and I realized...OH SHIT... I grew up...my novel's sitting on my shelf.

[zetiks]

Damn true it is. 'Wash out before my 40.' Future, here I comeee!

[maciaswine]

brilliant! so true ;) / ;(

[LowStackTom]

great vid!

but seriously, not all adv. agencys are like that, just most of them

[7419635841635]

[ugartist]

JAJA...When I grow up I want to be a Web Designer...a freak! "

[mirtheous]

Ha ha nice spoof

[y2jackie]

Perhaps someone could have told me this in uni before I got into the field... oh wait they were the full of themselves types who wore black all the time and did drugs . Whoops! :D

[Room4777]

funniest part: ceil b demille...

[tikirinda]

not dope coke!

[patchbod]

if you are in advertising. please do the world a huge favour.

walk to your garage. find some rope. and go and hang yourself.

slowly.

you are the simple reason for everything that is bad in the world.

satan is waiting for you.

die.

slowly.

[waranghira]

like you're not part of the scum, lol indeed.

[agg188]

Merci for le video... I know now I definitely don't wana work in advertising.

[JordenNamikaze]

this was played during one of the collage's tours i was on. even the advertising speaker was busting up laughing

[blaqbent]

i'm in advertising... i'm crying right now

oh wait.. that's a happy face... guess i've lost it already! :D

[patchbod]

[EllieK750]

[litelgurl]

whoever made this video probably is in advertising also. this is funny and true!

[hattarboy]

at least it's funny?

oh i can't stop crying...

[hattarboy]

[irvinmanohar]

[jerodferry]

OMG. This is so true and made me laugh out loud

[spiffyevil]

[bctbcbg4]

the masses have the most twisted outlook ever.

[HRFortmann]

[Leyka2454]

OMG... funny... so true!

[fastamx79]

I work in radio production and this is SPOT ON!!

[arthurascii]

I work in advertising so my attention span wasn't long enough to watch this to the end.

[matthew8131981]

how is advertising in your opinion? i'm really interested in it (im a junior in high school).

i dont want this video to make me think twice.

[barrettcondy]

I think it's fun. I'm a copywriter (a hack!) and getting paid to think is pretty fulfilling.

[santacruzin21]

Just go into accounting.

I started out at college going toward Marketing and Advertising, then made the switch and have never regretted it! I love it! :D But do what you need to do to- if you love your career you'll never have to "work" a day in your life.

[strangeworth]

Boy, there's my life.

[theotis5555]

I'm an Account Planning Director, former account director and media planner. I think it's time for me really grow up and open an obscure book store in small town somewhere. Who ever created this gets it.

[knighttime64]

I work in advertising, too. This makes me laugh and cry at the same time.

[35OzTV]

1:15 420

[RawMarketingSolution]

I work in Advertising.

I love it.

Not sales though, sales are hard.

[armacentaufa]

I´m a Creative Director in Ecuador, Southamerica, and I can tell you, this is the truth, no matter what country you work on. It´s hilarious, but at the same time, very sad and serious. It is a shame how other people sees our profession.

[Burch321]

1:16

[Arodisi]

how true and damn disturbing this is

[bmcauliffe]

sure it's a little on the long side but damn it's accurate. ha.

[TheArtLife]

Mission accomplished, eh guys?

[gojyoismine]

Omg effin hilarious and so true love it five stars

[lobodormido]

did they really need kids saying abusive lines? this video is dumb, long, uncreative cliched and coward.

[dalailamafarma]

act like you know, son.

[jayc33618]

I don't know. I just started working in advertising, and this seems pretty accurate to me.

[numba1drycellfan]

sweet!!! your awesome!!! hehe but this video is correct xD

[numba1drycellfan]

dude this video describes them!!!

[yuhandude]

Nice

[dreamingpretty]

wow ltid

[pizzasquirrel]

jeez, couldn't this have been about two minutes shorter? I mean, we GET IT. Someone needs an editor.

[toxou44]

this is terrible! Really bad.

[foroctfrallion]

There is truth in advertising.

[misterfunk4214]

when i grow up i want to erase this video!!!

[NiagaChel]

lol smoke alot of dope!

[psychopathsrule]

haha yeah that part was pretty funny. And they have kids saying this...lol sheesh

[ibangedyourmom]

funny...for the first 25 seconds...

[sharky0920]

If I grow up I will try too erase this video !!!

[pepsie82]

"Get coffee and donuts" and "sit in client meetings and contribute absolutely nothing!!" They know my job too well... lols~ Better then I do~

[danitraj]

God I love advertising.

[sarah13catherine]

haha it's really funny, my sister completely forgot she was in this until it was in an episode of juice last year

[kgeiger]

Which little girl is your sister?

[KatieTalksAlotXD]

Wow these little kids are cussing. :o

[xjtiger08x]

the boy that says 'smoke a lot of dope' is probably the cutest thing i've ever seen.

and yet it's sad to see that our future jobs are really the failure of all of the dreams we once had. ahh lifes so fun lol.

[SuperCX94]

I'm an Art Director at an agency, and I think this video is hilarious!

Genius work like this why I LOVE being in advertising!

[Danniiellea]

i dont know why people see this as a bad thing or get worked up

im considering a job in advertising/marketing etc and this vid is far from discouraging.. it actually makes me laugh and in a way it sounds kinda fun

its a great video.. =]

[LordSchrader]

"When i grow up I want to smoke alot of dope"...WOW!!! thats awesome

[Danniiellea]

hahaha 'when i grow up i wanna be a kiss up'

lol

funny vid

[hybird0jk]

hahahahaha

[patiebranco]

lol

[megamanbluesuit]

this isn't even funny. I'm considering a career in media planning and I see Monster (!) dissing the entire advertising industry as the shittiest thing on earth. It can't even be created by Monster because these 5 year old kids are saying things like "work my ass off for a 1,500 dollar raise." Potential lawsuit (?).

How cynical is this whole thing, honestly?

When I grow up I want to produce short videos that express my shitty attitude. Oh, nevermind, someone beat me to it.

[kgeiger]

LOL! Have you read the info about this video? It was produced as an intro for the Addy Awards... In other words: For the industry, by the industry. ;)

[hamletconrad]

oh relax.

[daisymeh]

I have this video bookmarked and every week I watch it because it makes me laugh. I work in advertising and find this to be the funniest thing on Earth because there is some truth to it. If you can't laugh at yourself, then that's a problem.

[queenofz]

Yep, truth to it is right. But it's a fun business at the same time. I love it for all its faults and joys and long hours....spent a lifetime in this business, coming up to retirement - and I still love it:)

[carpediem1009]

I have grown up and worked in advertising! when I started the job, I stopped sleeping. . . but boy it's all worth it :)

[Becky15349]

So true. Love, a media planner ;-)

[plotbunny]

......smoke a lot of dope.....

[ilove2rockbecky]

when i grow up i don't give a S**T!!!

[UweTheGroover]

When I throw up I want to throw up all over the networks.

Indies kick ass.

[guiriguili]

ils savent pas ce qui leurs attends les pauvres ! :-)

[youtube9]

When I grow up I want to be unimaginative. I want to use the same idea over and over again. I want to run an original idea into the ground. I want to work in advertising.

[michusch]

excelent ad!

when i grow up i wanna work in advertising too!

[tklumpp]

When I GREW up ... was when I realized that the only ones who find it funny / care are mostly other designers. ADDY - Whats that? HOW, CA? Not in my bathroom. But still a great spot. Now go learn the difference between kerning and tracking you wage slaves!

[xoOkryptoniteOox]

when i grow up i want to have piercings, weird hair, tattoos and win an addy and be the envy of all my friends.

ahhhhhh... to be an artist ;)
