I hate my job!

[Munson]

I'm sure there are some bumblefarg towns in PA, DE, Jersey, and maryland that could use a writer and wouldn't require you moving halfway across the country to the land of illegals and lynchers. But good luck down there.

[Sgt PSN]

i havent "accepted" it but im going down there fairly soon to get things in order and see the town.

this could easily blow up in my face or i could deal with it and be out in 1-2 years and on to a better spot. so well see. might as roll the dice.

unless you've been holding out on us, it doesn't sound like you've got a lot of job offers.  and when you add in the fact that you need to cut your teeth somewhere and start getting any relevant experience along with the fact that this isn't a booming job market to begin with, you should probably accept the job and just suck it up no matter how bad it is.  write some hs football articles, polish your skills a little more and hopefully in 2 or 3 years you'll be writing in toledo.  a few years after that, it's off to billings, mt.  from there, you go to charleston, sc where it's discovered that you're not quite ready for a city on the coast and you take a couple steps backwards and find yourself in scranton.  then one of the big boys come calling.  it's dallas.  they want you to cover the cowboys and you commit suicide during the webcam interview.  meanwhile, back in brownsville, your obituary is written by a young cub who just graduated from st. joes.  the end.

That's probably the best outcome you could hope for.

Congrats on the job (provided you actually get there). Keep your eyes open, because the print media types are constantly looking for ways to screw the people who provide their content (well, everybody except the advertisers). Get some experience, enough to put on your resume, then get the farg out of there.

Tell Spewdaro that you're gunning for his job.

dude brownsville is only a few miles from the beach so it can't be that bad.  you can do some undercover work fletch style. plus being that close to the border there will probably be some really cheap drugs and whores.  i think it sounds fun.

[ice grillin you]

  That may be the funniest thing Sarge has ever written.  Granted, the bar isn't very high, but this was classic!
