Traffic To Come

Just got a call from the operations manager for the Tampa office of traffic.com asking if I can do the morning traffic reports for WTSP-TV "until further notice."

I knew that the current traffic reporter was being let go in October and stations often send people on their way (with a check for the remaining time on their contracts) but this comes as a surprise.

I didn't ask what the reason was for the sudden change. I'm sure if there's a story, I'll hear it when I go in to the station tomorrow at 4 a.m. I'm sorry for the woman I'm replacing (if only on an interim basis -- I've been told I'm not a candidate for the job) but the work will do me good.
