Job Story #18 was recorded in the car and recounts the tale of one of the horrid "bridge" jobs I had between broadcast radio jobs, working at Guitar Center in Springfield, NJ. Let's just say there were many strings attached.

Job Story #17 is a bit of a cop-out. I'll admit it, I wanted Labor Day off. But something interesting happened. While dubbing material for my ongoing "Defunct Media Digitizing Project" I stumbled across an Aerial View from four years ago that sowed the seeds for this podcast. The episode is from Sep. 2, 2014 and is entitled "The Working Life". Here's the description from the playlist page:

Tonight, I'd like to hear your stories about the best and worst gigs you've had and what you've learned on the job. Other things to discuss:

• How do you prepare for your work day?
• Living on unemployment.
• The job search.
• Co-worker Conflict.
• Horrible Bosses.
• The Day I Got Fired.
• Weekend Warrior.
• Public Employees: Scum of the Earth?
• I don't like Mondays: the worst day of the week at work.
• Scary Co-workers: Are you armed?
• Slacking on the Job.
• Changing Careers.
• Romance in the Workplace.
• Watercooler Gossip.
• When Do You Know It's Time to Go?
• LinkedIn, Monster.com, Career Builder & other job search sites.

That's Job Storyright there. This idea actually began as a pitch I made at my old job, for an entire channel about working topics. It didn't fly.

My dream is to one day do Job Storywith phone calls and I'm still working on it. In the meanwhile, this Aerial View show will give you a pretty good idea what it would sound like.

For Job Story #14 I decided to enter my vocal booth and rant for as long as I could, as if I was back on the air live. I enjoyed it. It felt like utilizing a skill in danger of atrophy.

You'll also hear a vintage piece I did for the old WFMU Program Guide, LCD, about being unemployed. Honestly, I don't know if it ever ran but it was interesting to hear how much is still relevant.
