I've worked with men for years, so I'm used to all kinds of nicknames. A new male coworker started calling me "babe" and "sweetie," but I just ignored it. My boss, though, was furious and wanted to fire him! I asked her not to and talked to him directly. He was super understanding, said it was a habit, and is genuinely trying to change. Thoughts on being called "babe" or "sweetie" at work?

The station I work at is down at least 15 positions. Some jobs have been open for two years.

The remaining staff is required to step up.

Additional positions are opening up as contracts are either broken or expire.

How are people able to keep their mental health up when their station isn’t hiring people they need and refuse to pay living wages to potential prospects or promote those remaining?

Hello, does anyone have any experience as a war correspondent?

Hello, I wanted to mention that I work as a sports commentator, specifically about soccer. I used to be one of the main journalists for Spanish media, but since I moved to Miami I feel the general passion for soccer is very different 🥲 The energy and commitment are not even close to what I felt in Spain, where some businesses would close if the match was too important. I hope this nostalgia goes away soon.

What's the most ridiculous news you've seen this year?

Who do you think is the most influential journalist?

I’m working on starting my own online show where I act as the news anchor and cover what I think are the most important stories of the week, but I feel like I lack the personality/presence to carry out that role.

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?

Share the best news you've seen today please!!
I haven't had a good week, but I'm sure this community can make it better :)
