"beatles9091" wrote in message ... Thanks to the many purrs, prayers, and d*ggie slobber offered, I am now the new copy editor for our local newspaper!!!!! They didn't call back for a couple of weeks after my initial interview so I thought 'Well, crud!' Then I got word last night they wanted to talk to me again so I went in today. At the end of the discussion, they offered me the position and I, of course, nonchalantly (heck...I almost tripped over my tongue) accepted. It's for a two trial period and if I appear to get the hang of it, I'll be hired permanently. So, gang, please again...purrs, prayers, and yes, even d*ggie slobber will be accepted so I don't make a big fool out of myself for the next two weeks (I start next Monday). Thanks again for all the kind thoughts..... Roger Many congratulations. Will hope to read further excellent news in two weeks time . Am raising a glass to your current triumph Sheenah. |

Roger, anyone who writes as well as you, will have no problems being an excellent copy editor. We'd let you practice on our writing in here, but you'd be too busy to do the job you're going to be paid for. Congratulations, and good luck. You'll do fine. Pam, Rob, and the NC nine |

"Sherry " wrote in message ... Thanks to the many purrs, prayers, and d*ggie slobber offered, I am now the new copy editor for our local newspaper!!!!! Yay!! I think you'll like it. You've worked at newspaper before, right? I thought I remembered reading that in one of your posts. Keep us posted!! I miss newspaper a lot. I miss saying "Let's put this puppy in a sack." Which means, the last page has gone to the pressroom. I worked at newspapers through the transition from linotype, and on to the transition from cold type to desktop publishing. Which makes me rather an antique. Sherry No, Sherry, I've written plenty of articles for our base newspaper but I've never actually done layout work. I was talking with my new boss and the stuff he was telling me was fascinating. I hope I can retain all that stuff in my puny brain! '"Let's put this puppy in a sack!" (I love it!!) Roger |
