My name is Andrew G.R. and after 10-plus years of holding down different media jobs, I was completely discouraged - not only about my own career - but of the lack of career resources that truly spoke to me.  Enter: Jobacle.com -  your cure for carbon copy career advice!

Get useful 411, expert interviews and a forum to speak your mind on everything work related.  The blog is updated daily and the Working Podcast is produced at least twice a month.  We go against conventional wisdom (when we have to) to bring you info that is designed to make work better.  We are all suffering at work; Why not help each other and try to make it a little better?

A little about me... I've clocked in at K-mart, MTV and FOX and promise you that it's all the same.  My first job paid $14,000. My worst boss was Maria C. (classic passive-aggressive). I live in suburban NY and long to work for myself. Make this Web site a success and I promise to never use the word "surreal" to describe my fame and fortune.  Mantra: Sila.
