Radio DaZe: Thanksgiving
In my early career I worked every holiday because I was low man on the totem pole. Later on I worked them because I wanted to. In most cases I pulled the AM drive shift. Stuffing the turkey in the oven before I left, it would be nearly done by the time I came home.
Phones were always lively on a Thanksgiving or Christmas morning. Many times I would get great calls from people who were lonely, alone and sad. Maybe I cheered them up a little. I certainly got a big dose of thankfulness.
I played this at EVERY station I worked at, regardless of format. Enjoy and to you and yours (or as we say in Northeast PA Youse) a Happy Thanksgiving!
