"It's been a while... since I..." - Staind
Greetings and such from the Wild 96.3 War Room! Yes, we have a war room. It's 12:04 AM and I'm still here. Well, I went home for a bit but had to come back to type a letter and make the weekend air shift schedule. Damn laptop being broken... so I wrapped all that up about an hour ago and I've been wasting time online. I'm about to go home and go to bed but since I'm here I decided I might as well write in my blog since Clayton seems to think I should update this thing more often. :-p
It finally happened: If you've looked at my station's website lately or been listening, you know that we've launched our full out attack. We've been planning this for almost six months and now the fruits of our labor are being realized. The Fugitive has invaded Fort Wayne! This is the radio promotion that, well, the anti-radio promotion. It breaks all the rules and I love it. It sounds awesome on the air and I have no doubt that this is making Hater 107 look very foolish. What are they doing? Only the lamest thing I've ever heard: "The Thousand Dollar Holler." Basically they have people sign up on their web site and at van hits to be called. If they answer the phone "I am Hot 107.9" they supposedly win $1,000. Ok, first of all, who's actually going to answer their phone like this? Not many people, at least people with jobs. Oh, and the rules! Laughable! Basically they have the option NOT to use the numbers that are entered. They can choose a number AT RANDOM OUT OF THE PHONE BOOK! What a joke! Best I can tell they've only had a couple of winners. Oh, and don't fall for that bullshit about $10,000 Thursday. Read the rules... it's a five year annuity. Yep, that means $2K for five years. What a crock! Find our Fugitive, you get $10,000 in a lump sum.
Don't get that twisted.
Other than that, life is peachy for the most part. Our new PD has started (and he's actually lasted longer than a week!) and he seems really cool. He's making changes slowly but surely. Nothing drastic but things I overlooked while at the till and that needed to be done. All in all, I'm pretty happy.
I did my taxes... I'm getting about a grand back! :-D
I'm going home to get some sleep. But let me leave you with one final thought: Ever have a time when something that's been staring you in a fact for a long time, even several years, finally becomes so strong that you can't bottle it up anymore and you just have to go for it? I've had one of those. More on it at the right time. Until then...
