Let's see your college diploma!!

Although I graduated with a double major(almost--6 credits shy of a BS in Psychology) but with a B.A. in English and 3 years of biology and science as a biology major(they called it "pre-med") I was asked by a Pest Control company, among other things:  "We'll have to see a copy of your College diploma."
I've never been asked for that document in nearly 30-years of sales success.  NEVER.

My parents received it in the mail when I had already moved to East Hartford, Connecticut and I'm sure it's available by request or online, but for a "pest control company?!!"  I was at that moment that I mentally, at least, walked out that door, never to be seen again!

As Woody Allen once remarked:

"You'll have to excuse me now, Fred.  I'm due back on earth!!"

"We've been told that we're worse than the C.I.A..." the hiring manager laughed.

I hope he's still laughing because that joke is over for me!

JOSH CHILD INTERVIEW

I'll be having a chat with a very Digital-savvy gentleman this afternoon at 3pm. His name is Josh Child.  I can't wait to explore the full universe of possibilities with his position.
I've tried in vain to get the suits in the radio business, especially my latest job, to expand their horizons but they kept to the mantra of:
"Radio is who we are.  Radio is what we do!"

I even offered the services of a full video production company and share examples of their YouTube-type videos for them.

I received a "beat down" instead."

What a lucky break that they didn't see it my way, or didn't WISH to see it my way.

This is why most of the major clusters haven't posted a profit since 2009.  And this is why they're doomed to the "dustbin of history!"  Sad and tragic, but woefully true!
