Wish me luck
I have an interview today for a managing editor job at a newspaper. It kinda came out of nowhere, but I'm pretty excited and a little nervous. I don't know if I'm quite qualified, but we'll see.
If I get this job, I'm going to have to move my blog and not use my real name. This paper isn't hugely popular due to previous people in the position I applied for fucking up. For example, one lady had a half-black child. A man running for sheriff came in to run his ad. He made an offcolor (no pun intended) remark about the baby being a "half-breed." It's not that he meant to be offensive. IT's just that good ol' boys don't really know shit like that is offensive sometimes. Anyway, as a joke, she photoshopped "Paid for by the KKK" into his ad. When she got around to sending it to the printer, she sent that version instead of the version that he brought in. That version printed in about 2,000 copies of the paper. Hilarity ensued.
I don't want somebody to google my name and find this.
