Well If I was looking to take over this position I would first get a a Kevlar Vest, A Kevlar Cup, and plenty of painkillers. I worked at this station, and take it from me and anyone who has ever worked at this station, pass this one up. The money is not worth all the headaches, plus there are tooo many brown nose’ers in this place unless that is what your looking for???????????
