I once heard a broadcast school instructor who had worked on-air at one of St. Louis's renowned rock stations level with a student. The student asked how he could work for that station or at least pursue a similar career path.
"Well, my career has not been that stellar," the instructor replied, despite having at least 20 years in the business.
I'm still not sure if the instructor was being modest or if he was just preparing the student for the frequently precarious radio business.
