I just accepted an offer at a small community paper in their ad sales department! I will miss selling Mazdas, but there isn’t much growth potential for me at my dealership.

I am so excited. Also I will be working m-f, 9-5 which is a delight. I can watch all my sports!

But I’ve been lead to believe that all journalism happens in Los Angeles, New York, and Washington. What is a “community paper”?

I mean community as just covering one part of town. I’m have a lot to learn about the business. So this one just does local stories about things going on in the affluent part of town.

It’s a free paper, so ad sales is essential.

Thanks!

I spent all weekend in the garage with a Dual Action buffer. I’m delighted with the results.

Feels good to hear this. I got laid off two or three weeks ago. But, momentum is going. I have a phone interview today and a in-person interview tomorrow with a different company. Positive vibes!

Thank you! I know you will find something!

I was searching off and on since January, but my experience in auto sales didn’t buy me anything in terms of Outside Sales.

If you are applying to stuff you have experience in, I know you will land a great job quickly.

Congrats! It’s hard working somewhere with no upward mobility, so I’m sure this will be a great career move.
