: Umm...no, I wasn't canned, angry expert Tooly. I left my gig three years ago to pursue a Master's degree. And I am happily reaping the rewards of that decision. You are right about the industry changes. I had a lot of fun while in the biz but things have definitely changed and I am glad to be out. When I talk to former coworkers in various markets it's all the same...a big grind, smaller pay, tons of VT, and a reduced staff. How can those conditions sustain passionate and interesting radio? Next...ha.

I have to agree with Tooly. you sound like every other angry ex-jock who's trying to "stick it to the man" by listening to satellite. Even your "I'm gettin a masters..." line still reeks of the same BS we hear from angry ex-industry hacks. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt here and assume you are happy to be out and are living the american dream. Good for you.
