My First day at the station!

I got into WNEP at 9:00am sharp! They throw me right into the 9:30 meeting...I don't even think I met my advisor yet! I sat and watched the producers and reporters talk about what was going to happen during the day...everything was sooo confusing to me! There was many numbers,dates,names and times just getting thrown around! After 30mins of talking about deadlines and locations we ended the meeting. I got my ID badge and sat in on the assignment desk, Eileen saw that I was new and called me over to her desk....she is the women in charge of putting the stories on the Internet...how cool right!? She taught me how to put stories and videos in and how to quickly update them for breaking news! After learning that I went back to the assignment desk where I answered phones and learned how to listen to a police scanner!...Trust me if you are nosey this job is for you!...you hear all the news first! I then sat in on the 12:30 and 2:30 meetings. Today was a lot of information! Let's just say Advil and a glass of wine was much needed at the end of the day...but this is something I will never forget!
