The dreaded daily meetings are back. Big boss thinks that we perform only when we attend the stupid daily meetings. Well, if I was the boss, I would have let the reporters roam around freely. No meetings in my newsroom!!!
Yuvi- our ex-city editor and now a reporter- seems to be the only guy who is performing well. I wonder if it’s his news sense or just his charm that works. All his stories come from the outskirts of the city (so what if we are a city tabloid. The Big boss loves him)!! Watching him sell a story in the meetings is a treat- he can sell the most pathetic story lacing it with a spoon of drama, two spoons of revenge and multiple spoons of jilted lovers and love triangles. That’s not it. The most shocking thing is the Big boss will buy it, second-in-command will say ‘superb story’ and the third-in-command will add ‘perfect page one’.
Dear god,
If you tell me Yuvi’s story-getting and story-selling secret in my dream tonight, I will treat you with one kilogram of sweets (modaks and mawa peda’s to be precise). Love you.
very informative post for me as I am always looking for new content that can help me and my knowledge grow better.
