Gary's back!
Fast ein halbes Jahr ist es her, daß ich hier meinen Ami-Radio-Freund Gary Dickson bedauert habe, der dem Rotstift seiner Arbeitgeber zum Opfer gefallen war. Nach Monaten der Arbeitslosigkeit erreichte mich am Wochenende eine Mail mit guten Nachrichten:
Dear Friends & Associates,
I have some positive news to report. I have been offered and accepted a position at WORD-FM (101.5) and WPIT (730) here in Pittsburgh. It all came rather out of the blue, as I have not applied for any radio jobs since leaving KDKA earlier this year.
Kenny Woods, WORD/WPIT’s Operations Manager has decided to step down from his managerial responsibilities (his decision) to concentrate on his air-shift, production and other duties. Kenny was gracious enough to mention my name as a possible replacement as Operations Manager. After spending some time this week with WORD/WPIT’s General Manager, Chuck Gratner, I was offered the position. As Operations Manager, I will be responsible for all programming on the two stations.
Some of you, who’ve known me a long time, might remember that I spent ten years as a PD/Operations Manager/Corporate PD, etc. a number of years ago, before concentrating exclusively on my on-air work. This job feels just perfect for me. I have not been really interested in getting back on the air to host a radio program. As Operations Manager, I will not be doing an air-shift.
This has been a real answer to my prayers and the prayers of my family. Once again, when God opens a window it always seems to be something better than you could imagine.
All the best,
Gary Dickson
Wie Ihr lest, paßt der Posten bei WORD und WPIT, Sendern mit einem religiösen Format (das hierzulande unbekannt, bei den gottesfürchtigen Amerikanern aber sehr beliebt ist), gut zu Gary und ich freue mich sehr, daß er wieder einen Job gefunden hat in dem Bereich, den er am besten beherrscht und der einfach der schönste der Welt ist: Radio.
Der Pauls sagt: Halleluja!
