Seriously, the best thing to do is to fall on your knees and become an intern. If you don't mind working your ass off for free for 6 months to a year, you might get a board-op job or weekend job, then perhaps a night job...Even in a larger market, persistance, hard work, and a good attitude will get you far...Plus, drop any ego you may have. No matter what job you had or the school you went to, there are thousands of people who are better than you...
Like I said, you probably will not become an afternoon jock in six months... <P ID="signature">______________
If a DJ talks into a microphone, and no one's there to listen to him, does he make a noise?</P>
