What do you do when you're a radio show sidekick and the morning show host with whom you've worked gets dismissed? If management allows it, you might soldier on and try to make the best of it a with a new host or co-hosts.
It's ill-advised, however, to take the approach I heard one sidekick use years ago.
On the first day of a new morning show, one of the new co-hosts remarked that radio was an adjustment for her because she'd been so used to working in TV news.
The sidekick from the previous show, who had been kept on, muttered, "Some of us wish you were still back there."
I thought, "Even if that's justified, it's not great form to say that on the air. I suspect (that sidekick's) days are numbered."
