She is a TV news reporter and has been looking daily for any job (reporter, segment producer and/or field producer) in her industry in almost any city.

I know no one in this field and was hoping that maybe one of you might have a contact that will actually view her tape.

She is also applying to radio jobs but since she hasn't done this type of work since college, she isn't very hopeful.

Please PM me if you can help.
Thanks.

Most reporters/anchors have agents. If she doesn't have one, then encourage to do so. They will shop her tape and find her a gig.

When dating, when do you tell the person about FT?

Probably not. I'm still paying for telling my partner about FT! :)

The other half approved the somewhat unusual routing I have planned for the Do! It will only cost about $15 more per ticket but we'll get almost double the miles. ^

Please share.......

If the fares out of EWR were too high for you, you wouldn't be interested.

Besides, my routing was specifically chosen to be unique so I'm not competing with a bunch of other FTers for the good seats. ;) :D

I am almost sure I am going to fly from PHL for about 200 r/t. A few days ago a 250 rt fare showed up from EWR, but the dates were not announced yet, so I didnt purchase.

I did see EWR-RDU-IAH last week that I was thinking about, but that went way up as well. Oh well, getting down to PHL will be an experience.

I did the drive down to PHL twice last month and that's more than enough for me for a while. I'll gladly pay the EWR premium.

The drive down to PHL is usually fine, but the drive home always makes me regret the choice of flying out of there.

I am sure that is how I will feel. Right now, I am thinking of taking the last flight from IAH to PHL on Sunday night. Arrive about 1130 pm. That is too late for BoltBus or MegaBus, So I think I will just stay at the aloft at PHL for a night and head back Monday morning. If it was just me, I might just pay and fly from EWR but getting two tickets is tough. I will be kicking myself if the fare drops out of EWR though.

It's not like anybody with any sense would want to stay there very long even tho the forecasts are for the weather to moderate.

I should be back down here in time for Thanksgiving dinner after tucking down some ribs at the Mini Meat Meet, getting some work duties done, and taking care of some family Thanksgiving time visit obligations.
