Street Team Adventure #1 - The History of 1.5
Hey there Jason and 1.5(See Picture) here from the WBOS Street Team. Hmmmmmmmm 1.5? Who or what is that? Well here is alittle history about that.
I (Jason) had been at WBOS for awhile, when a new male intern was hired. His name was JASON!!!!! The foundation of WBOS was in ruins....the thought of two Jasons in WBOS was unbearable and the future was doomed. Crystal and Jenn (Promo Dept. aka our bosses) were put in quite the quagmire, and had no idea how to identify us.......believe you me we look nothing alike but with the same name I rather be his twin.
It got to the point where there was only room for one Jason. It was a dark rainy day in Boston when I came in to WBOS and found the other Jason sitting at the computer I had used since I started. I pulled him aside very aggressively and told him this can't continue "I am Jason and have been Jason since I started so you...you....". I was flustered and came up with nothing. He laughed me off and continued to update our website. As I worked at a different computer then usual, I came up with a solution.......Give him a nickname! I then turned to "Jason" and said "I know how to make this work, You will no longer be known as Jason.....You are now deemed 1.5. He smiled and said "I like it". The meaning is I am Jason and he is another form the 1.5. Does it make much sense NO but it has worked ever since. Now the Sun shine upon WBOS and everyone works in harmony.
So there you go that is the history of the Jasons now Jason and 1.5 So next time you hear that WBOS is making an appearence please come out and ask about 1.5 and Jason and take a cd opener.
