Me and My Job
Always have a plan B
You have to have a "spidey sense" about things. If you have a tingly feeling that something's just not right, you should listen to it and have a backup plan just in case, because sometimes there's a reason why you're having that feeling.
You have to trust your gut a lot, because it can go wrong. Sometimes you've talked with someone; they're set up, they're ready to go, they say they'll be there when you call them to go on the radio for the live program but you have a feeling that something's not going to work, then they back out at the last minute.
