I work at WYFF in Greenville, the lovely NBC affiliate. Which is in NO WAY related to the Meredith FOX affiliate WHNS at which my girlfriend works. [see post below]

I'm loving my new job. Video is being shot, and faces are being rocked.

I did have an issue with a miscued tape - which caused a minor melt-down in the 6pm show, but that's all behind me now. From now on I make sure the tape is properly cued to the number 4, so all will be fine. I also find it helps to obsessively check the tape five or six times before it goes to the tape room to make sure it's still cued up. I've also went up to the tape room and check the tape in the deck there. "Yep, still cued up." Then I watch it air, to make sure it went well. And, sometimes I'll ask someone "How did it go?" The answer is usually, "Um....fine." They think I'm fishing for compliments, but I just wanna make sure it went okay.

Yep. That miscued tape is all in the past.
