A good writer sits at her laptop, her hair still dripping from her luke-warm shower and accounts for her audience. She opens her laptop.
L. E. KingPublished 7 years ago in JournalA Funny Thing Happened at The Office Today...
I haven't said this out loud but being a black man in corporate America stinks. I've had the distinct honor of working in offices surrounded by white people for the better part of 15 years. It hasn't been all bad, but if anyone thinks there isn't still a racial divide, try being one of eight minorities that work in a predominantly white company. The funny thing is it isn't always the big things that make it tough. Sometimes it's the little things that truly make it unbearable. What little things you ask? Well...

Writing is something that many of us love to do, but your voice can be heard through podcasting. When you write an article, you can also share it with a podcast. Hearing yourself, you might not like the way you sound, but that does not mean that listeners won't like you. All you need to do is make your podcast interesting and keep your listeners listening. As a podcaster, I'm not perfect. I make mistakes. Sometimes you might hear a little pop or click through the microphone, but for the most part, the sound of the podcast is load and clear. All you will need is a good microphone and software like Garage Band that will allow you to podcast and create music.
Gail NoblesPublished 7 years ago in JournalWhat Does a Blogger Even Do?
I literally get asked this question every single day. I have been blogging since I was seventeen and in high school, a lot of my mates had no idea what it was that I was doing, I have been explaining what it is that I do for a long time, and people seem to still not understand the term ‘blogger.’ Being a student who is studying fashion journalism, it has actually become much easier to explain what it is that a blogger really is.

Ossiana TepfenhartPublished 7 years ago in JournalWhat It's Like Being: An Independent Musician
I am a musician and YouTube content creator. I spend most of my time working from home trying to make money by creating entertaining content. I work upwards of 10 hours a day, 7 days a week, but I absolutely love what I do. I get to live the dream of being my own boss and getting paid to play music in front of a live audience. The main issue is that when you first start out as a musician and even a YouTuber, you don't make much money if you even make any at all.
Kyle StumpoPublished 7 years ago in JournalMy Adventures as a Pizza Delivery Driver
One day at work, I had a pizza delivery come up and it was not to one of my favorite places to go. The delivery was to the local mall in town. Most of the time, the customers that do order pizza will come outside to met the delivery drivers, unless they say that they are manning the store where they work by themselves. If that is the case, then you have no choice but to park your vehicle and go inside to make the delivery.
Rhonda FarleyPublished 7 years ago in JournalBest Parts of Being an Intern
There are many pros to being an intern at a company. Most people think that the "intern" doesn't do much but I am here to explain why interns do more than you would think. For example, whenever the office needs someone to get Starbucks, the intern is there to do it. Also, whenever someone needs to take out the trash, the intern is there. In my previous experiences as an intern, I have noticed that watching other peoples' work ethic and seeing what they are doing is very helpful. Also, in the office, there are going to be some people that you don't like or are not particularly happy to answer to. You need to just accept it and deal with it. Your there to gain experience and learn the business. DO WHAT IS TOLD AT ALL TIMES! When the boss says something, listen carefully. They don't like it when they have to repeat themselves. I know from experience. That movie reference was needed for laughing purposes only. In addition, I have seen many instances where an intern doesn't get paid the most attention. Learning how to feel comfortable with that is key. You don't want to get down because you aren't being called a lot.
