Big Agency Hi-Jinks are a never-ending source of amusement to me.
Here’s from an article in Ad Age:

For more than 20 years I made ads. One out of 50 probably ever made it out of the agency. Maybe one out of 500 ever made it on the air.

And again:

During my career I survived some 14 rounds of layoffs, downturns in the industry and the economy, takeover threats, IPOs, 16 creative directors, 13 CEOs, the demise of one great agency and the ongoing collapse
of another.

Is that any surprise, with stats like those?
Sheesh!
