Of course. Because everyone knows how easy it is to start a new
career in mid-life.

Idiot.



Actually, I highly recommend it.


Yep. I find I can not usually go more than 8 years max with one company.
Now, I am in my 12th year with one, but I have gone from PD of a talk
station to multiple FM music stations, to national AM PD, to natioanl FM PD
to overseer of research and programming. So I have had 4 or 5 "new jobs" in
12 years. Before that, I worked in Ohio, Ecuador, DC, VA, AL, Puerto Rico (4
tours), Argentina, Mexico, AZ, and CA. And did work in 17 other Latin
American countries and Europe. If I do not move and change jobs, it gets
horribly boring.

I did it. So have most of my colleagues.


Mine too. That is what we talk about when we catch up at meetings and
conventions.

So have I. I have been board op, announcer, general manager, chief engineer,
general sales manager, Beautiful music format syndicator, record producer,
night club owner, station group owner, CEO, group program director,
consultant in Latin America and elsewhere (Al aboard for Karachi) and a
number of other things. That covers about a dozen careers.
