i detect your arrogance jean! you are one of the few successes! interns? does any of them know how to write? give them a real opportunity--ask them to write news stories. let us viewers know what is going on in this metropolis. my sense is too many in your industry are failing to earn their living each day--for example the fire on valley blvd in alhambra yesterday. whereas the morning team had excellent live coverage which provided viewers fascinating material, Lasko gives the night time report and tells us the building went up "like crazy" and "the thing" did something else. i have observed Lasko giving a smart report of a news story but last night his reporting was childish. he told us the building housed "everything from a bakery to (an herbs store)". encourage the interns to carefully observe the output of the two finest reporters at ch 11-- takasugi and blachford. I am biased; I sit in my living room and pay attention to what is being communicated. in the mornings, i feel espinosa, lozano and decastro are the competent ones who are worthy of their positions. let's see the writing skills of the current interns. no free rides for the pretty boys and girls who are not qualified.

Kudos Jean I agree with Latina she is reading my mind !! Hang in there . Your gr8 Jean stylish classy she said it all !! take care Brenda : )

i am that young punk your talking about bean. i started working in construction when i was 15 years old til i was 20. mostly worked from 15-18 on my summer vacation and weekend. i think i was great for the company. i made all the vet's feel useful cuz they taught me everything i know, and made them feel young, because they were able to beat me out on everything. so for a 50 year old to out do a a young punk like me, made them feel good.

when i started working as a production manager i was only 20, and now im 24. i'm not sure how i made my co-workers feel. everyone is older then me, and i'm making more money then all of them. i think in a way they are angry, but also happy that i haven't let it get to my head. i treat everyone with respect, and appriciate the good job everyone is doing. i make sure that each person feels like i'm a friend, and not a boss to them. it's odd ordering around guys twice my age and i haven't gotten used to it. i dont think i ever will, but i try no keep things friendly.

Hygene, I'll bet it makes you feel lucky you have what you have?

Sebar, Crafty Rockie and Fan, your kind comments brightened my morning!
What a nice fringe benefit to this blog.
Paul, I want to avoid coming across arrogant but Latina is right, these aspiring journalists populate our newsroom with another point of view. Good to keep things fresh.

i'm sure bean has many more years with us all. i'm sure once she's ready to retire then that will be the end. but i'm hoping she doesn't leave us ever like lisa joyner did. don't leave us bean. don't every leave us. especially for channel 9, or 5 or 2 or 4. they blow. they don't even desirve to whip spit off your shoe bean.
