[Jobs] Help please...Re: FW: ANNOUNCING WASHINGTON, D.C.'s HIRE THE DISABLED CAREER EXPO, NOVEMBER 6, 2006!

Thu Sep 7 11:49:08 CDT 2006

There is only one way to find out-call them and find out.  Perhaps in your 
community there is a small, privately owned station that has office 
personnel who wouldn't mind taking a few minutes out of their day.  Keep in 
mind that radio stations, like the local drug store, are businesses and that 
all of them have guidelines.  Don't take anything personal, it's not.  Good 
luck, Judith
