Yep they really do say "Don't waste your time". I have no idea how to get it online, maybe someone else could try.

If they are ACTUALLY saying, the CRTC will/should be on them faster than Oprah on a baked ham.

It's always valuable to have differing opinions in society, but I would warn everyone on this board that comments published here can be considered libellous since it's a public forum. Just something to keep in mind, especially since that's something you have to keep in mind once you work in this industry as well.
Nothing gets you called into your boss' office faster than getting the company sued.
Tim, you're obviously young and have a sense of humour, but sarcasm doesn't always translate online. You should be aware that almost any broadcaster you're going to want to work for will have strict workplace guidelines covering this kind of thing. Breaching those policies can get you fired.
I do enjoy learning many of the things that are talked about on this board, but it's terrible to see the various uncivil comments that get made by many people (not just Tim, so please don't feel I'm picking on you.)
Let's get back to discussing things of interest in Vancouver tv... instead of going through various rounds of comment/accusation/defensiveness/anger/apology.

Sandra, one question. Do you work at a TV station in Vancouver?
And thanks for the advice. I seem to get a lot of that.

Tim, you can't just freely ask that question here. Not to be rude, but some people would not like to disclose this information (on a publically viewed website/forum).
It is up to her to make this call.

No kidding. She doesn't have to answer if she doesn't want to, I just know a Sandra that works at a TV station here and I want to know if it's the same person. P.S. From now on, please kindly refrain from telling me how I should and should not act on these boards. As far as I know, I am an administrator and most of you that constantly like to criticise or push me around don't seem to give me any credit. Thank you to the two or three that actually do appreciate taking an hour out of my already busy day to run a forum for you guys. |

What a nice way to make fun of someone with a weight problem!! (sarcasm)
