As someone whose career has almost exclusively been obscure romcom jobs: they’re never described accurately in job posting. I’m currently a writer for an in house publication for an Italian grocery store chain, meaning I am paid to write about pasta. My last job was advertised as on site content creator, which meant I got to go to bridal fashion week with Kleinfeld and the met gala after party hosted by usher
I truly enjoyed reading this while drinking my coffee this morning. I’ve had it in my saved posts for AGES but only just got around to actually sitting down and reading it. Keep up the good work! You’re doing truly amazing and I adore your pieces!! ☕️⭐️🫀
i appreciate this so much! thank you for sketching the lovely image of someone choosing to read my work while drinking a cup of coffee. made my day!! <3
thank you!! i love all of these films too 💖 i really enjoyed reading your post and i thought it fit so well with what i was working on so i had to mention it!!
Just read this article from my desk, I am a technical writer in a SaaS company. 🥳
I didn't even realise how much those movies/stories influenced me through the years. I started my journal after reading the first books of the The Princess Diaries (Meg Cabot) and after watching Bridget Jones' Diary (was I too young? oh damn yes!), then I wanted to become a journalist after watching Ugly Betty and The Devil wears Prada. Anyway, I want to watch all the movies – and I'll probably will this weekend.
thank you!!!! i think i also watched all of these too young and wishing i was a grown up girly with my own apartment etc etc. thank you for sharing this ❤️

honestly i think my childhood career ambitions came from seeing the bratz girls start their own fashion mag, i loved this!! 🩷💞
oh my gosh bratz were icons!! now we’re all out here living our (digital) magazine dreams 💫💕
as a chick flick girl, this was one of the best things I’ve read in a while! 😻 lowkey hoping you’d turn cinefilles into an actual magazine
thank you so much celine 🥰 that’s the greatest compliment! i might…… 😏
Absolutely feel this. And, the fact that 95% of the time they are gossiping and not working? Sign me up!
ahahaha yes 😂 just talking and hiding from their boss in their office booths

I was the target audience, ughh wouldn't it be so much easier if we all lived in romcoms
