Bulletin Board Blab 8.2.06

prcrazyguy.jpgLots of good topics being discussed today! Good for everyone.

"My boyfriend of more than two years hates that I am a journalist. He is constantly complaining about the long hours I work and the small salary I take home. Financially, we don?t really need my income, and I am paid a decent amount given that I am a reporter. But still we fight a lot about my job. I am just wondering if anyone out there has been through anything similar. Is it possible to love someone who hates that you are a journalist?"

Our MBToolBox featured discussion: "Writers: what have been some of the best (and worst) experiences you've had working with PR folk? How do you prefer being reached out to? When have they inhibited your work or simply bugged you?"

"A real estate company has asked me for permission to reprint an article of mine that would appear in a publication for its 80,000 brokers. Any thoughts on whether this company should pay a fee to reprint the story and make it so accessible? It appeared in an international newspaper, published in UK, US and Asia."

"Here we go again with the dreaded salary requirement issue...but with a tiny twist. Prospective employer has put the ball in my court regarding an interview. If I'm cool with the salary range, then all's a go. Here's the thing. The highest end of their salary range is my absolutely lowest acceptable salary."
