Don't look down on me...

Mojo1

Mid-morning July 9, 2009

He rewrote press releases. I made the extra call. He makes $20,000 more doing a lesser job. I lost my desk to save money for the company. He writes short and obvious. I’ve always tried to be more in-depth. Then, this reporter stuck in traditional old ways looks down on me, my $69 photo vest and the rest of my attire. He looks me down twice… The funny, obvious, and silly fact is that the clothes I have on are much more fashionable and costly then his on less the salary. Same company, yet not even a “hello” or “how you doing?” Reporters should reunite and embrace Mojo, a.k.a. “Mobile Journalists.” Just because I don’t have a desk, don’t discriminate, I once had a desk and still a productive part of a company and office life. I just go the extra yard, reach out and do the most I can for a story, I’m not worried about what my colleagues are wearing, but more about what they’re writing.
