Re: [ARSCLIST] Audio Engineer/Archivist ? Client Sup ply

["Marie O'Connell" <azile50@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ok guys!  All I can say is apply to hr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx which I posted in the
initial email.  It really is not a good look to post almost a 'personal *
grievance*' on a list serve site.  If you are interested in the job get a
more thorough description from the Human Resources department and please,
don't consider this job as a 'couple year vacation stint' .

Thank you
Marie

I have 50 years experience designing, building and maintaining  sound and
recording  facilities. Quality control supervisor of a tape manufacturing
and high speed duplication company.
20 years of on air experience and  producer of syndicated radio
programming... and a 5 year stint as member Board of Directors of a Public
Access TV Corporation.
Much like Steven Barr I dont know much on paper at 70 years old but Im still
active in analog digital production and restoration.
Yea Id like a couple year vacation stint doing something in New Zealand
involving  setting up a digital library.
Still dreaming of  more interesting years.
