an improvement from a low mood, not quite peak but enough that a load is bared

**Darren McCoy, 28, Class of 2013, Has an 8-Year-Old Batman Spec Script No One Has Read** . Darren wowed us from his first days at Westbridge with his undeclared major and his devil may care attitude. Darren dreams of being a director, despite being unable to connect with human beings on any meaningful emotional level. When asked what his favorite movie was Darren simply said “Fight Club” and when asked who directed it he said “Tyler Durden.” . **Tilly Danvers, 29 Class of 2012, GoFundMe Scammer** . Upon graduation, Tilly didn’t let her lack of accolades stop her from achieving her dreams. Realizing that word of mouth wasn’t an effective way of telling the world about her slip and falls, Tilly branched out to the worldwide web. Tilly is now a career GoFundMe scammer as well as an effective social media manager for her own personal brand (scammer). Way to go Tilly! Now that we know your ankle isn’t actually shattered we’d like our $50 back. Venmo is fine. . **Gail Perez and Betty Henderson, 25, Class of 2015, Still Technically Dating** . Everyone remembers Gail and Betty from the Westbridge halls. Always walking hand-in-hand and arguing about something innocuous and yet intensely fraught like dirty dishes or cat hair while the rest of you were get drunk of brass monkeys at Greek week. Five years later and we’re excited to announce that Gail and Betty are doing the same exact shit! Only difference is now they’re in an open relationship, and somehow have way less sex now. Aww! .

How’s it going? Living the dream. ... Really, whose dream?

How are you today? I’m grrrreat. ... Really?

How many times a day do you get asked these questions, and have to fake an answer? Frankly, I’m not fine and I don’t know whose dream this is, but it sure ain’t mine. My dreams are so much bigger and warmer and brighter and more fun. However, I’m certain that the asker doesn’t want to hear the real answer nor do most of them care.  It’s sad, really.  What unspoken rule says we are supposed to ask people how they’re doing if we really aren’t prepared for the answer? And why does that same unspoken rule say we are supposed to lie to people when they ask us a question? Well, I’m not a big fan of lying so let’s all stop pretending. I don’t have to put on that stupid face in this picture and you don’t have to try to come up with an equally fake answer.

There’s a country song about the difference between “love ya” and “I love you”. It’s really true. There’s also a difference between “how’s it going?” and “are you OK?” I’ve thought about this over the last month or so. I’ve been really down; frustrated with my performance at work (although my boss reassures me it’s not as bad as I think), burned out on winter (and we’re only halfway through it), stressed about everything that’s going on in my life (daughters engaged, one has moved out already), worried about my mom (health concerns), trying to balance a full-time job AND run a business AND volunteer. It’s taking its toll on my body: these heart palpitations have returned, my back and neck hurt all the time, I lose focus a LOT, and I’ve been getting more frequent headaches. I try to push it out of mind but I don’t think it’s working. There’s a new guy at work who actually asks me (regularly) if I’m OK, exact words.  He will look me in the eye and ask and there’s something in his eyes that tells me he really wants the answer. “I’m OK.” That’s all I’ve got today, just OK. And you know what? That’s OK because it’s not always gonna be like this.

Maybe I’ll start changing my answers... How’s it going? Chasing the dream.  How are you today? I’m just OK. Or maybe we should either change the questions or actually mean them. I mean, what if we cared about each other? What would that be like?

AT&T: “Just OK Is Not OK”

-

Do Not Settle For Just OK

Oftentimesjust OK is just not an option. AT&T’s “Just OK Is Not OK” campaign, demonstrates the importance of not settling for just OK. In “Tattoo,” for example, an artist tells a man getting his first tattoo that he’s “one of the tattoo artists in the city” and that the result is going to look “OK.” Other spots in the campaign include a restaurant offering “OK” sushi, a less-than-stellar babysitter and mechanics with a troubling saying about brakes. 

While the campaign arguably confuses OK with flat-out bad, it provides an adaptable premise to build on in the future while communicating AT&T’s selling point and implicitly relegating competitors to dubious OK status. It could potentially prove to be a long-running, entertaining premise that helps differentiate the brand as the 5G network wars heat up.
