Hey guys this has literally been the week from hell. I am an awful bucket of BS excuses. On the plus side I purchased a Haunter plush at the anime convention I've been working at this weekend. He doubles as inspiration and a reminder to JUST POST ALREADY! Also thanks Arty I knew Denni had no business being near the booth and I thrive off of character interaction. Hopefully after tomorrow/today (Sunday) I can get to a regular schedule of posting once every day or two. No more excuses no more catch up.

Bio
Hey my name is IgnisMendacium, call me Ignis, call me Iggy I don't care just don't call me late for dinner eh?
I'm a true Canadian Red & White to the core yes I say eh and yes I am overly polite... sorry.
As far as my roleplay style, details are key, if I don't know the who, what, where, when how and why hopefully there's a reason or I'm left just plain confused. I don't know if I am prepared for advanced RP. But no matter what the destination I am always interested in the stories we can tell together.
I try to remain an open book if you have a question PM me and I will do my best to comfortably answer it.

Good morning thank you for calling Goldenrod radio tower, Denni Haderleigh speaking how may I be of assistance? No that's way too long Denni muttered to herself as she got ready for the morning. It was still earlier than the sun itself, she had never been used to getting ready before the sun but then again this was also her first day working and her first time ever opening up a radio station a day for firsts she thought to herself. Today Denni could not wear her crop tops or her shorts today was a day to make an impression, she put on a Shuppet Blue skirt with a matching blazer jacket, sleeves rolled up to come across somewhat stylish, a deep purple blouse and the perfect height of high heels. She had been pinching pennies ever since she found out she got the job just to look great on her first day. Having no idea what she was going to wear tomorrow she called upon her Haunter Hal and they headed out set right for the day.
Goldenrod radio tower my name is Denni how may I be of assistance? Damn it still to long. Denni was really stuck on the details of pretty much everything. She needed this job if not for her sake for Hal's. Denni had never been much for Pokemon except for Hal, her incorporeal friend was someone she knew she could always rely on, like now while stressing about how to say hi over the phone Hal was stretching his face in many a different way in effort to entertain himself and Denni, she noticed and it made her smile inside but she kept a stern face if only to make the Haunter try harder.
A quick stop to the Pokemart for a water and then Denni was at the tower. Thinking she was going to arrive early she was left dumbfounded to find the lobby, her work space filled to the brim with people. She was not late that was for sure. Right before she began panicking Haunter licked her left hand. It went numb, but it was a tactic that the duo had built together if things weren't in order he'd give her a small lick and then she would have to concentrate on regaining feeling. It worked, it always did. As Denni began to regain feeling and control in the tips of her digits she looked up to the sound of a ding and noticed everyone was gone. Great first impression Miss head of public relations. She was mad but she knew she could relax now.
She sat down at her desk still looking for the perfect wording for her telephone greeting. She booted up her PC to a very bland desktop. That'll need some changing she said aloud. She picked up a quiet telephone once more in practice. Goldenrod tower Denni speaking how may I help you? There was no dial tone no nothing. She looked at the time on the PC and noticed there were only 10 minutes until the station was officially open and the first show would be underway. No time to send an email to tech support she figured she had a good lay of the building she could probably power walk to the tech office and have a resolution in 9 minutes and be ready faster than a Jolteon.
She started marching into the hallways first a left, then a right one more right and she'd be where she needed to be. She stopped herself quickly at the sight of a girl more than likely the same age as her with red hair and her Umbreon carrying enough cable to wire the entire building. Noticing the unmistakable look of being lost on her face Denni stopped and thought to herself A good receptionist should help a person in need. She walked up to the girl and with the most sincere smile said Hi there, is there anything I can do to help? she was sure that she had just presented herself in a polite professional manner. Now if only she could be that sure of Hal.

Apologies if I seem a bit harsh/agitated. I have just woken up and have yet to had any coffee/caffeine/shower yet because the shower is occupied and the coffee hasn't been made yet. >_<
Brutal. I just got up too but I'm a strange night owl/morning bird hybrid who is just happy to have gotten sleep.
I guess there's just no radio stations in my hometown, that do that. All my radio stations are either music stations or talk radio stations there's not really an in between there.
Like said not trying to start an argument just using what knowledge I have from the inside of the industry to help.
I guess in all reality it depends on whether or not we want to be a music station or a hybrid station. Either way technically DJs could do both jobs.
I Unno not my roleplay
I hate to be an know-it-all. But DJ's are kinda a do-it-all position. As I interviewed DJ's for my college application I got to see how much effort they put into one work day. They select the tracks based on a certain standard set by the station. They research all the things they will talk about during their shows. They work practically as stand up comedians nowadays. One of the DJ's I spoke to was even the musical director of his station.
As I have said I don't want to cause trouble or tell people how to role play. Once again... not cool. I'm just hoping to drop some inside the business knowledge to help this be the best pokemon radio show role play ever.

A host is actually a potential position for Sidney. Preferably, I'd have her be a reporter - but since @BurningCold's character wants a similar position, I might as well make her one.
Maybe I'm ignorant. What's the differences between a DJ an a radio personality?
@IgnisMendacium Question: does Denni already have an apartment and is looking for a roommate, or is she looking for someone to room with?
She has a tiny apartment in goldenrod and should not be able to afford living there yet always makes it by the skin of her teeth.
Sorry again about the delay.
I'm still in this I'll repost my character sheet in characters tonight. Helped a friend move all day yesterday and am sick at work til 9pm Mt time.
Does the hose even operate whilst the truck is in motion? Can't the firefighter drive the truck. Stop and operate the hose?
In the end this is Absolis' if they say I can't be both I will gladly just accept receptionist.
I'm so ready to get going though.

Truth I especially enjoyed the:
I was more kidding than anything about who's working what jobs. Dictating how others role play is super not cool... unless you're captaining this ship.
My personality sucks, but you could have a voice like a Rhyhorn with a head cold, and I could still make you sound like Meloetta herself.

@BurningCold you are absolutely correct but as there are many positions to fill within a single radio tower being a person of many hats isn't necessarily a negative thing story wise.
Also who's the first person you see when you walk into a station? The receptionist. If he/she just happens to be the person in charge of public relations then you know they have communication skills and as a bonus being on the forefront of the station there's never a chance for a missed opportunity to build strong public/business relationships.
Now 2 questions that I have in return are:
1. Why have people not applied for more behind the scenes jobs (for the love of God will the bathrooms stay clean?)
2. Does our station have any veterans? We all see pretty young. The average radio veteran would be like early 30s. Just curious.
I woulda chose DJ myself as it's a path I'm currently pursuing in real life, but why be me when I can be you?
Thanks for bringing up that point though cold.
