1) Managers and editors talk down to the Survey Writers - they make rude and inappropriate comments
2) In training, as well as in the job description, you are told that the latest you will work is up to 2am....I had to stay once until 5am because of the lack of coverage (very large turnover rate)
3) This is not a part-time position....working 36-39 hrs almost every week is very close to full-time (and you don't receive benefits so what's the point of staying!)
4) You have to rely on the assigned editor to your show to approve your show questions before you can leave to go home or start your next show.
5) Different feedback on methodology and miscommunication among editors and managers - this can cause an even GREATER delay. You may be used to writing a certain way according to a rule one editor told you but then another editor will tell you that your writing incorrectly. As a result, you have to go back and rewrite the question which could set you back 30 minutes to 1 hour.
