Nothing new here, just an observatio that this market is as old boy network and political as any...perhaps more than most. Whole lot of marginal at best "talent" that are connected people, not talented people. Just another reminder that our business sucks...more in some places than others.

Don't be bitter, it's called life. There's a support group for this. We meet at the bar.
That sure sounds like the ol' "Philosophical Differences" at work again.

If its so bad for you, maybe you should seriously opt out of it. Every business has a political element. Many people are in a hurry to prove something, and find fault in everything that disagrees with their thinking. Its still a good and fun living to many. Try and find the good parts of it, or find another company in the business that is less political than where you are. All companies in Atlanta are not the same.

No matter what market you work in there are politics, professional jealousy, and bad decision makers pulling the strings. Ya just got to learn to maneuver yourself
through it.
Umm...Dash, what bar would this be??? :
We have local chapters at most of the fine establishments in these parts. I hear that local media movers and shakers like Manuel's.

[EDIT]didn't get that sale from the Bugtussle Bait Shop? At least I have put my anger into something positive, running for PD of DAVE-FM. If you want to join the campaign we have meetings and everything.

Yeah, but most of the shakin' comes from the salt just before the tequila!
