Bye bye Lois Lane, hello Perry White

Posted by Gypsy on Oct 6, 2005

Life can always be connected to a comic book. In my office we have Superman, minus the Man of Steel. We have a Clark Kent (OCD), Lois Lane (myself), Perry White (Gomer) and a trio of Jimmy Olsens (the Privates).

For the next three weeks, I’m getting the chance to jump into the Perry role while Gomer joins the Privates (he doesn’t have the legs for Lois).

This is an opportunity I’ve been waiting two years for. When I was in journalism school, the one facet of my job that I just clicked with was the editor’s job. Copy editing, layout, design and organization have are my strong points and I finally have the chance to prove I’m more than a cute girl in camouflage and combat boots.

Today, my first day as editor, was the first day I’ve gone to work, worked my ass off, and came home stress free. If my job could always be like this, I would definitely do 20 years in the military.

Of course, this means I’m going to be extremely busy all the time at work, which means I won’t be able to post more. But at least when I do post, it’ll be a lot more positive.

I’ve got a lot more responsibility being put on me, but I think I can handle it.
