Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Seriously, what the fuck could you be tested on?!

basically making sure i won't set the place on fire...

knowing what to do when the government wants an eas test, if the fcc knocks on our door, how to operate the mixer board efficiently (without leaving the mic on and broadcasting my foul mouth across the air), where to file damaged equipment reports, the 7 dirty words (no, really), a bunch of noncommercial stuff (ie: law forbids me from mentioning specific prices, or using adjectives to promote a product, or getting paid in any way by being part of the station), some fcc stuff (no talking to a single person over the air, no obscenities/indecencies (except in music between 10pm and 6 am), how wrpi deals with its community service requirements, givaways of stuff, how to turn on and off the station, how to monitor meter readings and adjust if necessary, how wrpi categorizes new cds, what to do if there's a fire drill, how to earn work hours, how the "friends of wrpi" is really a money-laundering organization permitted by law...

I did radio when I went to USC (South Carolina). My main slot was sunday morning from 9 to 12. There were a lot of folks who appreciated a jazz show during those peak hangover hours. The main format was "alternative" (I could never quite pin down what that meant, at the time it meant anything on Subpop) but let's face it, you don't want to hear Steel Pole Bathtub first thing in the morning after a night of Tequila.
Leave the gun. Take the canolis.
