Veteran journalist of reputable radio show talking to newbie recruit:
“Just remember, when I first got here and sat through my first editorial meeting, I thought: ‘Oh my god, everybody just knows so much. They’re so… knowledgable.’ It was intimidating. Now I know they just say any old stuff. They know nobody can keep up with it all anyway.”
"I didn’t know I was this geeky until I discovered the online world through my office’s 2400 baud modem back in ’93."
