first day is in the books...

OK so instead of going in for 10 I had an email hoping I would check my email and be there for 11 instead...because the bus system is sooo weird in freddy I was fully prepared to cough up the cab money. I arrived early, of course, I waited for Gary but the first person I met was Kevin, who turns out to be the guy I am going to be shadowing(one of the two people). Then I met Gary and he took me on a tour of the building.

One of the first groups of people I met was the morning show people...it was 11 so they were preparing for tomorrow’s show, I assume. Everyone was very welcoming but this crew included Terry and Angela, whom I’d met before...when Gary introduced me Terry or Angela commented on me being the hockey fan (I had done an interview with Angela trying to help her select players for a hockey pool). Then Terry asked how I was doing in my pool, that was probably the highlight of my day...oh yeah I think it was Angela that said something about my mom always listening to the show.

After that I was left with Kevin and we didn’t do too much, he is done work at 1 and then Cari comes in...she showed me what she regularly does and I was in the sound booth for ‘our 4:15’ Colleen came in and had quick chat with Paul and then we went back for Todd to promo the 6 o’clock news.

I also had a chance to play around on their editing software...I didn’t do much, but will eventually. And I can’t remember what the program is called but it looks pretty simple.

Tomorrow I start at 7, so I am off to sleep.
