I'm currently at WRUR. It is not the same as it was in the 90s but we're still here. If you have any cool stories I'd love to hear them. They are a little more strict these days.
I was back on campus about two years ago and the studio was almost unrecognizable, although the rest of Todd Union looked about the same! Yeah, we weren't very strict back in those days. You just had to do so many hours in the AM booth and then you were given access to the FM studio. So you just did your AM time by playing album sides while you did your homework; nobody was listening to AM anyway.
Not too many exciting stories. I got the opportunity to sub for somebody in the 5pm Friday slot one week. I had no idea what the slot was, but I just went in and did my 3am show. The phone lines quickly lit up with people saying, "What the hell is this Sh#!? You're complete crap. Where's the Jazz hour?" Lol. On the other end of the spectrum, one of the UR bus drivers recognized my voice and told me he loved my 9am news slot and always tuned in. I always did the top stories off the AP feed and then finished with some weird off-the-wall story, before turning it over to my buddy to do the sports.
can confirm. I work in a store doing picks. We are all students and generally do not care. If customers aren't looking food + product is being thrown into a cart haphazard.
There are a few of us who care a bit but not many.
Luckily work for a store that is too inept to track our performance.
I can only imagine that this gets worse when employees are monitored.
