A Month & Some

Just over a month ago I jumped ship to work for a national broadcaster.  So far things are going great!  The people are awesome and so professional to work with.  I edit features on a daily basis and actually had one go to air nation wide which was a thrill to have happen.

So, if you've noticed my posting amount slowing down, that's why.  I've become pretty busy lately, more busy than I had anticipated.  Back at my old job I had a lot of down time to catch up on blogs, think up different posts...hell, I even learned Photoshop from all the free time.  This whole blog design you're currently looking at was done with that free time. Now it's GO GO GO.  News editing = tight deadlines.  There's times I'm given a short story with minutes before it has to go to air.  I absolutely love that rush though, I wouldn't change it for the world.

I thought I'd share some photos from my last day at my old job.  I'm still friends with my former co-workers and try to visit them when I can.  I miss the crew, they were fantastic to work with.  


That's Dawn.  She baked me the cake!


My bud Martin. We still need to get beer and pho.

My sweet lady friend Jess.


My friend Alice.


The guy in the above photo is my buddy Mike.  He left the company a few weeks before me and was employed for 10 years.  Insanity.  

As for the underwear...it was there when I came back from Maternity Leave.  It hasn't moved since.

I'm always curious about other people's work places...where do you work?  Do you like your job?  What's your dream job?  Ultimately I want to work on documentaries and be the main videographer for them as well.  

That's it for now.  I promise I'll try to post more.  I miss the blogosphere.

Later gators!

It's nice to see you miss and get along with your co-workers.. I know a lot of people that hated their and couldn't wait to leave.
I wish I could help those with mental illness, but lately I've been dreaming of becoming a photographer.

I know JUST how you feel! I started a new job about a month ago, and I'm still adjusting to the busy-ness of my days. I'm enjoying it as much as you seem to be enjoying yours, so that's something to be thankful for!

This job sounds pretty killer. I went to school for tv production and I'm a bit jealous, even though my current job suits me alright.

That's a pretty good going away party they threw you, you are loved. :)

So cool to hear about your job! I work in TV in Australia so it's cool to see what it's like in your TV world!

Kate said...

I'm always sad to leave a job, even if I hated it, because I always love my coworkers! Good luck to you in your new job!

Found you via FN :)
