I hear ya Deb. I ditched the copy desk back in August to go back into sports 
for the first time in 15 years and it's still a bit of a culture shock. How did 
I become "Mr. de Give" to the coaches all of a sudden? and trying to remember 
that if a kid is holding a baby on a lap, it does not necesairly mean they're 
babysitting .. oh gawd ..

I hear ya. I just ranted without reading a full thread but it hit a raw nerve,
obvs.

I never thought I'd be so grateful to have not ended up in traditional
newspaper journalism. I can bitch about my moron editor but still thank gawd my
very niche entertainment trade gig is doing well despite it all. So maybe I
should STFU. 

But I was snarked on today by a co-worker who remarked that I was old enough to
be her mother. Well, um, yeah. But when the hell did THAT happen?! Damn, a long
time ago. Shit.

Sorry for being such a downer. But damn damn damn.....

Cheers to everyone who is gainfully and safely employed,
Deb
