Decisions...(A song written by me Gene Starwind 21122)
2006-04-09 19:37:03
Well today I went to work from 8-10:30am and then I headed down to the recording studios. About a year ago I wrote lyrics for a song and just within the past few months I actually got a band that I know to write the music and perform it for me. Well we went into the studios today and it took us from 11:30am-6:00pm to complete the song. I'll have the final copy of it on Tuesday. It sounded awsome in the studios. Keep an eye out for it when it comes around to September as it'll start make contest appereances. I'm hoping to start work on the music video for it in May. Well see you guys around.

My first day with the Baltimore Sun...
2006-03-25 17:06:46
Well its been an interesting first day from mess ups like saying " Hi would you like a free Maryland Gazette." Oppss wrong company or "Hi would you like a free Baltimore Gazette." or "... a free Maryland Sun." So after getting my sales pitch straighten out in the last 3 hours I was there of the 4 1/2 I worked I got 5 sales and made $119. Not too bad. Well I think I'll do fine with this job. It'll give me a chance to sell something different.

Done with the Maryland Gazette... Now I'm working for the Baltimore Sun
2006-03-24 16:31:08
Well my 9 year trip the Maryland Gazette that started back in 1997 has come to an end. I was not getting paid enough by the company and decided it was time to move on. The Baltimore Sun called me today and offered me a job, ironically it was the same time I was about to go job searching. They were offering me $25 for a weekly subscription (per 2 months) base paid. The bonus come for an EZPay ($10 bonus) or every subscription after my 25th. (26 and up are an additional $10) So potentially $45 a sale. The least I'll make is $17. The Gazette I was making $10-$25 a sale. Where as the sun I'll make $17-$45 a sale. So it was kind of hard to say goodbye to my two managers that were still there but the circulation manager and another manager that worked for the Gazette are at the Sun so it feels like home already. Well I'm off to play D&D tonight.
