As a junior reporter for a local news station I have found myself in some pretty sketchy situations.
Recently there have been numerous neighborhood board meetings over the heated fights regarding rezoning.
They neighborhood that is being considered is run down plus the neighborhood wants to take possession of any properties that are abandoned or behind in taxes for more than numerous years. Unfortunately, this includes properties that are still occupied by families that simply can’t afford the taxes due to living below the poverty level. Many other residents are fighting to give them a opening to make wonderful on the debts through low cost payments instead of losing their homes. At any rate, these meetings can be long plus loud, not to mention the hall where they are being held has a less than adequate Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C system plus it becomes sizzling plus stuffy when filled with so many people. The press is all huddled into one corner of the room plus we lay there sizzling plus uncomfortable trying to get our scoop on the story. Of course there are deadlines that need to be met plus we all want to get the story on the next airing of the local news. Getting interviews with people plus officials takes time plus I need to try plus keep my cool while waiting. No one wants to talk to a reporter that is laying there looking all sizzling while I was in the interview. My job can be taxing at times plus I suppose that one day I will be the one behind the news desk instead of the one tracking down the latest headline grabbing story.
