OK, I'm back again. Very interesting stuff you guys have posted here. Yes; sometimes the powers-that-be must lop a few heads...put a few skulls on stakes to remind the unwashed masses of their power...it happens...you just have to know when to hold'em and when to fold'em. (Thanks, Kenny R...)


Anyways...this is probably the LATEST (earliest?) I've ever posted on AT...Why? So glad you asked.

I am on vacation from Job#1...to work Job#2. That's right, your favorite Workaholic, MichaelD is taking vacation from one job to work the other one, fulltime. How sad. :(

Hey, it's paid leave, plus I'm making $$$$$ at Job#2. This will allow me to pay for all the XMas presents in CASH as opposed to years past. (Thank you, Mister Mastercard....)

So, what say you, oh night people?


You're a workaholic too, eh? I get a vacation on the 30th. I told them that when I came back, I was just going to be a board-op, and not do the news direction anymore. We'll see what happens I guess.

You're the guy that works for the radio station that is owned by the old people w/the old lady that keeps changing things, right?

Yeah. She tried to change our News/Sports/Talk station to all Christmas music, our Oldies station to all Christian music, and our Country station to all-commericals.

She just settled for changing the Country station to Christmas. I hope she does the news after I step down. *That* will be hilarious :p

Give them enough rope to hang themselves and stand back and laugh as they swing in the breeze. :D

Well, I don't like doing news anyway. It's not my thing. Compound that with the insane managment here, and the number of hours that I work, and a pay cut, and I'm not a happy camper.

When I signed on though, he told me I could just go back to being board op, so that's what I'm doing. I gave a 1 months notice, which is plenty of time.

When I go to board op-ing, I'll never have to mess with any of this again, and I'll still get a decent 55 hours a week, and a day off.

:)

Man, there's no news today at all. I wish I could use state news, but the boss' wife won't let me. Bah....
