New job
 
Forgive me for the new thread. My search function isn't working to find my "wish me luck" thread. I'm sure it's my computer.

I'll just say that my (ex) boss went batshit crazy so as many know I've been job hunting. Had an interview out of town, got an offer and turned it down... money not good enough to move. That was in the other thread.

Thank God I didn't take it. Today I had my 3rd and final interview with my direct competitor for the last 5 years. Got the job. Start getting the lay of the land tomorrow, my show and Program Director gig on Monday.

Pretty goddamn awesome day.

*radio sucks
**yeah don't care at the moment lol

HolyHat 02-11-2013 05:06 PM

Congrats sir

Stewie 02-11-2013 05:07 PM

Awesome! I'm surprised you could be hired in the same market right away.

SPchief 02-11-2013 05:09 PM

So I'm guessing there was no non-compete clause in your contract?

This is awesome news. And I hope that shit-head ****-wad of an ex-boss of yours is one of the first to find out and stars crying about IP concerns like the bitch he is....

TribalElder 02-11-2013 07:04 PM

Congratulations. Your story is an inspiration to all those who wish to leave a dead end employment situation. Leaving is one thing, but to "take your talents to south beach" and directly compete against your ex employer you really stick it to them. You sir, are winning the game.

My job wasn't dead end until the last 6 months or so. Since then the boss went insane... I believe literally. He's now training his relplacement over the last few months. The new guy will likely be worse simply from lack of experience. Plus he's a clone of ex-boss, just younger.

To be fair my now ex boss did a lot of great things for me and supported the station whole-heartedly... for 4 and a half years. I can't say really what happened since that time. There are literally lawsuits pending.

All I can say is damn I'm glad to be out. To say I welcome the chance to..... well it's an understatment.

Like I said I hope to bring Kayla on to be my co-host again. My old friend Jewel would be great to have back on afternoons. Otherwise.... you're still my friend.
