https://beingoppen.wordpress.com/2016/05/04/stop-being-a-devils-advocate-and-start-advocating
Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. Stop Being a Devil’s Advocate and Start Advocating. I sit in a lot of meetings, not nearly as many as I could but still a lot. As a marketing manager I’m consistently involved in several projects at once and although some may start simultaneously rarely do they stay on the same schedule or move at the same pace. So can we please stop Devil’s Advocating and just advocate for the project, advocate for the client, advocate f...

Mama Always Said… – Being Oppen
https://beingoppen.wordpress.com/2014/06/20/mama-always-said
Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. Mama Always Said…. Photo of my Mom from that one time she hand to sit in as a model for her employer (a furniture company). I had a thought the other day, just in the middle of whatever the daily grind was. It wasn’t ground breaking but it was one of those thoughts that stick in your mind for the rest of the day. I’m so glad my mom is my mom. There are a lot of other lessons I learned from her that just can’t be enc...

Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. Ad Review #1 – An Open Letter to Sprint. Let’s add a new topic that I’ll kinda sorta sometimes remember to blog about on a regular basis. Ad review #1 – LOATH. The new Sprint ad for the iPhone 6. Ok you’ve watched it…WHAT THE HELL? I don’t know if I’m more upset with Judy Greer. For being in the ad (you have Archer.why do you need to do cell phone ads? Looks like they’re shopping around,. Is this all that women are? It...

Adulting…The Efficiency Episode – Being Oppen
https://beingoppen.wordpress.com/2015/11/14/adulting-the-efficiency-episode
Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. Adulting…The Efficiency Episode. Without further expounding here’s a glimpse into how I attempt to stay organized/efficient. I’ve tried the Franklin planner route, it’s a beautiful tool, but it just doesn’t work for me. I use my digital calendar for all appointments and then have this handy little list maker. I get in take 5-10 minutes to get my coffee and pick my morning playlist on Spotify then I review my to-do’s...

Finding Strength – Being Oppen

Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. Little me and Grandpa and Grandma. There are times when you just can’t any more. And not to sound too much like a Millennial girl but you just “can’t even…” can’t even, finish that task, get to the grocery store, make a real dinner (dinner last night consisted of pickles, cheese, salt and vinegar chips and a san pellegrino, because I couldn’t even…).

The Tech Stack and the Fisherman – Being Oppen
https://beingoppen.wordpress.com/2015/06/17/the-tech-stack-and-the-fisherman
Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. The Tech Stack and the Fisherman. I miss the English language, proper English. The kind of English you hear in old movies, the kind Audrey Hepburn or even Mr. Darcy spoke. Where so much was said without giving it all away up front. Where one could voice an emotional opinion without “being all like…”. I’m reading a book right now that summed this thought up in the introduction…talk about concise! Now I think this is spot o...

June and July’s book – Broken a Love Story – Being Oppen

Comments from Life's Peanut Gallery. Guest Posts and Clippings. Whit’s Bucket List. June and July’s book – Broken a Love Story. One of my favorite roads, that I lived off of in Wyoming. This book was suggested to me by a dear friend, who hadn’t even read it. She saw the cover and read the blurb on the back and basically walked me up to the cash register to pay for it. Thank you, Ali! 8220;What’s bad is good. It helps you find your center.” – Stanford Addison. 8220;…his approach to life was this: &#...
