How excited are people about President-Elect Barack Obama? I work at T magazine at The New York Times and was just told about a long line of people outside the building trying to get copies of today's newspaper due to a shortage in all five boroughs. At this time there are no available papers at the NYT building either. (Thankfully, I was able to get a copy when I came in this morning and will be holding on to this paper for a long time to come.)
Born and raised in Oak Park, IL, a suburb outside of Chicago, I called my brother to ask him to pick up a copy of The Chicago Tribune for me. Well, it seems Chicago is suffering from a newspaper shortage as well. He went from store to store looking for both the Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times for family members with no success. When he later came across a Chicago Tribune delivery truck the driver told him that another shipment would arrive early in the afternoon.
I was just told another shipment of The New York Times will arriving here at 3 p.m. (Maybe even as early as 1 p.m.) Let's hope.
UPDATE:
More copies of today's NYT's were made available at the Times Building around 1:30 p.m.
My brother in Chicago just left me a voicemail message letting me know that he was able to pick up a fresh copy of the Chicago Tribune.
Many thanks.
Success does not mean anything! But if you are successful you can always maintained a positive mind! But failure does not mean anything! As long as you keep on trying you still the other side to success
