Today was a very interesting day. In the morning I went with Hugs to hand out vouchers for 12 dollars off each ticket to Wet and Wild water park. We went to a shopping center at 730 in the morning in one of the 1075 cars and Hugs called into the radio and said that he was there handing out these free vouchers. I didn’t expect anyone to show up or if people did there would only be like 5 or fewer but a lot more people showed up than I expected. When we arrived there were five people who were already there and that was cool. Each person got more than one voucher which I thought was really cool bc then they could take family and friends and other people besides themselves. Other people started showing up, usually one or two at a time every couple minutes throughout the hour and in the last ten minutes at least 5 people showed up at once all asking for vouchers and we ended up giving all of them away. All of the people knew Hugs and all of them seemed to listen to the radio station and the morning show and they weren’t just there for the discounted tickets.
After the morning I listened in on the morning show and they did this really mean segment called War of the roses, which other DJs like Ryan Cecreast does and it’s pretty famous. Basically they have people call in who think there significant other is cheating on the and the DJs try and figure it out and help them uncover the truth. They usually end up calling the other person undercover or under fake names and try and get the truth out of them that way but it usually blows up pretty badly. This one ended really badly so I won’t into detail about that.
After I got to call people telling them they won a chance to come into the 1075KZL Studio for Friday morning live. Friday Morning Live is where the Morning Show with Katie and Jared have a bunch of fans come in and watch the show live and they provide breakfast for the fans. If they couldn’t make it this Friday they are allowed to come any Friday they can. I called all the people that were selected and told them about it and I was given a script to read off of in case I messed up. It was easier calling people than I thought it was going to be. Overall today was a good learning day I think for communication skills and professionalism and really being able to work with people.
