Good things come to those who wait. Better things come to those who wait longer.
Or perhaps, equally appropriate, “The squeaky wheel gets the grease.â€
That’s certainly the way it feels right now. Nearly six months in the making, my internship at CBC Radio has finally been approved. I received this in my inbox yesterday afternoon, the result of my incessant pestering of Joan Melanson:
I was in yesterday, and I have some good news - the approval for your internship at CBL has gone ahead.
Joan has been absolutely wonderful – an advocate and a champion, navigating the turbulent waters of CBC bureaucracy on my behalf. After being told “maybe†for so long, then very recently “no,†she somehow managed to wrangle a “yes†out of the powers that be. Kudos to her.
Congratulations Dan — well deserved.
