Probably the worst things ever as a UGC creator
1. Every time my iphone says I'm out of storage and I *literally* just deleted like 20 videos I want to put my head through a wall, respectfully 🫠
2. If I see one more social media influencer telling new UGC creators to buy their pitching template and go create a sample portfolio with stuff from around their house I might implode—publicly
3. It is so incredibly obvious to me now when agencies and brands are “rate farming” and acquiring a creator roster, that I think I’ve developed a twitch
4. Last time I checked with the power company, they didn't accept *exposure* as payment. So weird
5. Why on earth did I deliver a service 60 days ago and I'm just now seeing the invoice. Someone explain.
As a fairly experienced UGC creator, these are terrifying. 10/10 will give me nightmares.
