And the pay.

It's awful, about half

Hey, How The Hell Are You, New Jersey?

You've never been an

executive producer. You're too young.

Nobody's ever heard of ya. And here,

your education, three, not four years,

at Fairleigh Dickinson in Teaneck,

also known as Fairly Ridiculous.

Did I miss anything?

Daybreak needs what I need,

someone who believes

that it can succeed.

Trust me, I know you don't

have any reason to believe in me,

but I work harder than anyone else.

I'm in first, I'm out last.

I know a shitload more about the news

than someone whose daddy paid them

to smoke bongs

and talk semiotics at Harvard

and I devote myself completely

to my job. It's what I do.

It's all I am. I...

You can ask anyone.

Well, that's... embarrassing.

OK.

Thanks for the tour,

and... thanks for... for...

Thanks.

It's these buttons right here.

Oh, lobby. Yes, thanks.

Good day so far?

I don't think so.

I talked too much. Ruined it.

Damn it.

Sir.

I am such a huge admirer of yours.

I'm a... I'm a big, huge fan. I...

My whole family watched you,

growing up. I...

Of all the anchors, you were,

in Kosovo, I was in Kosovo.

I'm just here to teach her

how to use the elevator.

Are you done?

Yes, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

May I?

Oh, God, sorry. I...

Of course, of course.

Oh, my God, I can't

believe I just met the...

- Wait a second. You know him.

- Yes, I do know him.

He's the third worst person

in the world.

- Hello?

- Becky Fuller.

- Yes?

- You sure you can do this job?

Yes.

- You start on Monday.

- Thank you.

Yes, I am calling about

the one-bedroom.

Yes, I'm moving into town.

I've got a new job.

I'm extremely neat and tidy.

In summer camp the kids used

to pay me to make their beds.

Yeah.

Sorry, that was an overshare.

No loud music. No kids.

I don't even have a boyfriend.

Just me.

I'll take it. I'll take it,

I'll take it.

Sorry!

Sorry!

Sorry!

Also, we'll have more

on the flooding in Iowa.

Finally, some good weather news

on the way for those folks.

So please join us tomorrow

and thank you for spending

- your morning here at Daybreak.

- Take care, everyone.

- Are you interviewing at Daybreak?

- Goodbye.

Assistant? Intern?

No. Actually,

I'm the new executive producer.

Another one?

Don't unpack.

Miss Fuller?

Lenny Bergman, Senior Producer.

Yes. I know who you are.

- Here, let me, let me give you a hand.

- I just have one question.

Why haven't they bumped you up?

It's not for me. I did it
