Don't you hate it when people don't get back with you when you need them to? Occupational hazard that someone you need to talk to doesn't get back with you in a timely manner.
In most every other occupation, it's alright to let the person who is trying to get a hold of you wait a day and a half to get back with the information, but if that person is a journalist, you better believe they are muttering curses upon you. Nothing personal, but with deadlines hanging over our heads, it's hard to think pleasant thoughts for you.
Part of being a journalist is relying on other people to get back with you, so you can further your story. Without those people, a story is dead and lifeless. It's all-together boring.
No particular reason why for this post, but I find this problem quite annoying. So, you non-journalists out there, if a journalist calls, please call back soon or be okay with having someone not being your biggest fan for a while.
