8 years is a long time to work for a place.  I had mixed experiences there.  Yet, I appreciate what they are trying to do. (I wrote about this nearly a year ago in one of the previous comments).
I had worked in radio on the air for 10 years before going to Detroit specifically to work for WMUZ.  During that time I switched from production to hosting the morning show.  When the previous host came back and wanted his job, I was let go.  I was also lied to, that there were no openings.  I went back to Frank and told him, I knew that they had an opening in production and I wanted it.  He told me he thought I wouldn&#039;t want that job again.  I replied, I need a job, I can do that job, and I am good at that job.  So I was hired back.  A few months later when the salesperson I was working with, (Actually trying to train), was on the verge of losing his job, I told Frank that if the salesperson didn&#039;t make it, I wanted his job, which is how I made the transition to sales.
Today, and for the last 6 years, I have been working in sales and management for a group of stations in Fort Wayne Indiana.  And despite the negatives of some of my experiences with WMUZ, I still believe that they have the right business model for Christian Radio.
Your comment about a divorce lawyer...  Christians need good legal help.  Christians get divorced.
I am a little surprised that you have a negative view of the &quot;top brass&quot; at WMUZ considering how long you stayed there.  Maybe after some time has passed, you will grow to appreciate the intentions of the management, and be able to apply them at other places that you work.
By the way, you can contact me directly at scloho at scloho dot net.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Radio person,</p><p>8 years is a long time to work for a place.

Mr. Franciosi &amp; Mr. Crawford (the owner) are run by money, not Jesus.  If you have a month I&#039;d be glad to tell you the stories.  One comes to mind when Mr. Crawford tells everyone &quot;It&#039;s MY money!&quot;.  Hmmm, he uses bible verses just to make him sound Christian, but the stuff I saw go on my top brass doesn&#039;t make it seem like it!
We almost had a divorce attorney as a client.  Don&#039;t think they were thinking of Jesus, but the money that would come in.
Trust me, WMUZ is a radio station w/a &quot;Christian&quot; format, not a Christian radio station.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sorry Scott, but I spent 8 years at WMUZ as well, and it&#8217;s not run by Christian principles or by Christians.

Good for WMUZ. I wish more businesses like theirs just came right out and got honest about the state of things.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scott,</p><p>Good for WMUZ.
