Oh wow! Where did you get those maps? I've been looking for something like that for a long time for my satellite LF creations..
Swift WX Professional
I used their blank map feature and screen captured the national map, northeast, south, midwest, and west.

OCMs & Personalities / Re: Marshall Seese to retire in November
« on: July 21, 2008, 12:35:04 PM »Certainly unexpected news, though he's had a good long run at TWC. Wonder who his replacement will be? My guess would be either Bill Keneely or Kevin Robinson.
but then another question arises, who will replace marshall's replacement?
if that happens to be the case, that is.

so long story/drama time:
so basically today I opened up at my work, my manager and a cook, Eddie were there opening their stations as well.
Well, shortly after I arrived at work (9:30am) I saw my manager, Robert, take down a note posted next to our working schedules...at the time, I figured it was just for him. However an hour and a half later after I opened up the front of the house, Eddie and Jordan (new guy who I trained) were talking in the back, and somehow the note was brought up. I asked what it was about and Eddie told me he was able to read it before I did, and it said "Al & Jordan you both need to learn how to close up/re-stock - blah blah blah" after he told me, Jordan and I were pissed....Kim (evening shifts) posted it, she's a bitch - end of story
Well she is a little hypocrite, because SHE HERSELF didn't restock after closing last night, she also didn't wipe down the patio tables outside - they were dirty. So I was going to talk to my GM when she arrived later, and did. Around 3pm, I told my GM, Teresa - that I needed to talk to her about another employee, I told her Jordan and I were pissed she did that, and that another Employee, Raul, was sick of her immaturity.
So Teresa told me not to worry about what other people tell me, because she has to get on Kim's @!? all the time for not restocking, cleaning etc herself - and that Jordan and I are in fact doing our jobs right. After telling me that, she found the note that Robert had thrown away (obviously in the trash) and apparently what Kim wrote was bad enough to get herself written up.
anyone think I did the right thing? IN my defense, I was backing up my fellow trainee, and another employee.

did anyone see today's last hour of ywt? hahaha. heather wasn't in her right spot after the 8:18 (i think) local
when the local ended, the camera was facing the center of the video wall - heather came up from the desk and walked pass the camera, then the camera started moving toward her side of the video wall.

OCMs & Personalities / Re: Kim Perez moving to Day Planner?
« on: July 14, 2008, 06:26:07 PM »Kim is filling in for Nicole Mitchell this morning, making this her first appearance in HD, and, according to Marshall, the first time they've ever worked together despite them both being at TWC for so long.
I wonder who will step in on Day Planner today. The best bet is probably Carl, Cheryl, or Alex Wallace.
from what I caught at the beginning of the 8 o'clock central time hour, was that they haven't worked together in over 20 years.
as for tyler's question - she did pretty darn well - she seemed hesitant at the video wall though, other than that...she did pretty well like i said

Programming and Graphics / Re: Late night HD launch, part tres
« on: July 12, 2008, 03:52:08 PM »Wait a minute...I thought the whole purpose of Weekend View was to deliver the weather in a slightly different way than other segments, so WV has meterologists sitting on a couch around a coffee table.Now it's just like any other segment? Not cool.
I thought WV was using the couch in the interview corner of the HD studio.
that was the intent of WV at first, however obviously that has since changed...as for the coach - we can pretty much say that it's the interview area like it says on their website, and that it'll only be used for that - interviews.
If they were just going to do this with weekend view, they might as well dropped the show and brought back weekend planner.
