When I grow up, I want to work in advertising

spoof of the famous Monster.com "When I grow up..." tv spot, specific to the advertising industry. over the years there's been lots of speculation over who actually created this. I know the answer -- I remember this wining a National ADDY Award back in 2001 or 2002, created by an agency in Des Moines, Iowa called the Meyocks Group, and I believe this piece was originally intended to be an addy awards show opener.

Spoken like someone who has never worked in the industry. For those of us who do, it's pretty damn funny and sadly accurate.

This should be required viewing for anyone that's spent more than 3 months inside an ad agency.
