A few weeks ago I wrote a post about my upcoming trial with a commercial Darwin radio station and how I was scared I would totally screw up. Well I totally nailed it !! They offered me a job driving ‘ Black Betty ‘ a black van loaded with free shit – except on air obviously I have to say ‘free stuff ‘ 😉
I almost blew it last Thursday when I was supposed to go in for training at 6.45 am …… and woke up at 7.15 am. Not good when you haven’t even officially started ! Luckily its Darwin and everyone is pretty chilled up here. Matty , the guy I was supposed to meet at 6.45am , kindly offered to meet me yesterday instead .
There is no excuse for 5 and a half hours late .. unless you have been kidnapped by Zoo animals and have a Gazelle dancing on your chest .. hey I ve been in weirder situations 😉 (audio is fine after 2 sec’s)
I was so wound up I woke up at 2am and scared of missing the alarm again was lying in bed wide awake until 5.30 am. Last night was even worse , I awoke at 1.30 am and again could not get back to sleep. Finally I managed to drift off only to have a terrible nightmare which involved me waking up at 7am to a phone call from my new boss yelling at me that I was crap and he no longer wanted me to work for him.
Luckily this did not happen in real life and I managed to get through my first Hot 100 crossover without swearing once.
Yay for me.
Oh man, I get so nervous when I have an “early call” that involves something important like work. I’m always afraid I’ll sleep right through.
It was one of my worst nightmares .. until it came true .. now I’m just praying I don’t turn up in my PJ’s .. or worse naked ! 😉
If that van is ever in the Detroit area I would like some free Hot 100 Sh*t
*=i
If I can get that van across the world , I will make Detroit my first stop …. As long as you promise I can meet Chip Dip 😉
Excellent! Chip dip wears a toddler size small
Ill even throw in a banana milk 😉
oooo they have such a thing? That’s probably a lot better for him than the banana beer I’ve been trying to get him to drink.
Can you ship some of that brew my way 😉 Ill trade you ..
absolutely. we also have this beer here called Fosters if you want that instead.
No no that’s ok you can keep the Fosters … I would drink cask wine before Id touch that stuff !!
haha. PS – new Chip Dip coming at midnight eastern time – midday australian time?
Yay !!!! Cant wait 😉
