'uh-oh'
I honestly thought it was the blonde lady that messed up. How many times did she say "Cuts"
"Brazzers"
why must they always word it as technical difficulties? geez, give us some variety
Why do they awkwardly sit in silence instead of laughing or something?
the excuse for everything "technical difficulties"
[QUOTE=Lukeo;34293683]Why do they awkwardly sit in silence instead of laughing or something?[/QUOTE] Cause a lot of people would see it as not "professional" would be my guess..
Why does american news footage always look like it's from the 90's?
Why did I find that sudden cut to a burning house so funny?

[QUOTE=GreenLeaf;34292948]why must they always word it as technical difficulties? geez, give us some variety[/QUOTE] I guess I'm not professional enough then. I'm on my school's broadcasted morning announcements, and yesterday the teleprompter I was reading glitched out and went all the way back to the top of the script. So I literally just sat there and said "Congratulations to the bowling team for......Uhh.... Welp, the teleprompter isn't working. Oop... It's going back down... uhh. OKAY!" Then continued the announcements. Possibly the most awkward thing that has ever happened to me, but it gave the school a pretty good laugh.

[QUOTE=Dominic0904;34296289]Cause a lot of people would see it as not "professional" would be my guess..[/QUOTE] Professionalism is the reason people give if they are too afraid to enjoy themselves.
but professionalism shouldn't come at the expense of your personality! i work at a restaurant and some people argue that this means i should treat every customer as a god and lick their boots clean and do the whole "the customer is always right" bullshit. I never do that! i treat them as human beings who are guests at our restaurant. i'm kind and helpful at all times even when the guests themselves aren't. but i do not put on a shit eater grin face and ask how i can further develop this theatre of mine. Whenever i'm a guest/customer at any sort of establishment i want the workers there to treat me just as they would treat any other guy, friend or stranger. and this applies to the news reporter too. don't take the acting too far.
