    Speaking of prize closet, that's how got my job home in Chicago in 1992. The 6-10pm jock did a mission impossible move through the ceiling to get to the promotions dept after hours. Duh!

    David...about your previous coffee comment. If you worked the late shift it was more like liquid brownies, wasn't it!?

    I miss the times when you'd find the prize closet unlocked! LOL

    The thing I miss about Radio is the music, excitement of the community and just having fun doing what I loved doing. I definitely don't miss the snack money that came on the pay checks...LOL

    So my 401 K for the station I USED to work for has a total of .41 cents in it. They remind me of this quarterly. Which costs them .42 cents to mail. Yes, you guessed it - Cumulus. "It's Radio" ;o)

    David, you mentioned freaky phone-jammers and calls. If I'd had the presence of mind I'd have taped ALL the calls and archived the best ones. I guy could have mined that resource for a long time and gotten a book or many news articles out of 'em.

    The most important issue was not the stations 401K plan, but, "does the station have coffee available for the jocks 24/7"? I do have my priorities.
