Always have clever ideas on how to put a unique spin on writing about the workplace? The Monday supplement New York Post @ Work is perfect for you. "While some articles do address the more technical aspects of professional life, like a recent look at good local resources for online job seekers, [editor Mackenzie Dawson] Parks is more interested in lively trend or etiquette pieces that dissect workplace culture-the friendships that arise, the romances that flame out, the cliques that form," writes Jill Singer. The section views the office as a breeding ground for sociological study, so even when writing a more service-oriented piece, it's good to keep the tone light. "Workplace issues could easily be so dry," Parks says, "so regardless of the type of article that the writer is doing, I'm primarily interested in a fun voice and a tone that is similar or identical to that which is used in the features section of the Post-really fun, punchy, lots of interesting anecdotes, that kind of thing. When somebody pitches me, that's what I pay attention to.'" The best places to break in are the sections "Water Cooler" and "On the Move." "Water Cooler," but a cover is not out of the question. Skip Go to Greg, Dream Job, Office Reads, Work Wear, and Straight Talk, which are columns staffed by permanent writers. Make sure your pitches are concise.
