The "Happy" Ghurls

Name
Libido Liza a.k.a Lickin' Liza
Age
18 yrs
Job Title
A Happy Ghurl at Melbourne radio station TTFM and a Sanity Chick
Job Description
Basically being happy, hence the job title - given by Mr. Eduardo Phillips at TTFM. This involves vigorous hand and finger exercises at night, as well as intense oral usage. Yes, answering phones and chatting on the Internet does get a little bit tiresome at times, however, it was either that or volunteering to be involved in another one of Andy Grace and Jennifer Bert's weird experiments! My specialty as a 'Happy Ghurl' is to ensure that everyone in the studio maintains a high libido and that their faces are licked at least once each night :p
Hours (per week)
Monday to Friday, 7pm to 10pm... a total of 15 hours - when we turn up! A special thanks to 'Mix Master Mikey' for filling in for us!
What was your first job?
A 'Sanity Chick' - 'Captain Turntable' was a Sanity Dance Arena Dude!
What inspired you to work at Sanity Music?
I couldn't get a job at Surf Dive 'N' Ski where all the hottie guys (Paul Sunderman...hmm yeah, bring it on baby) worked - 'destination hottieville'; Sanity was its successor! I also needed a holiday job after Year 12 and besides hotties, my interest was also in music. To further my career, I have been contemplating a job in the taxation industry, as I have heard from 'Fifi La Fuente' that there are some major hotties in the business!
What qualifications are needed to work as a 'Sanity Chick'?
The ability to 'deliver awesome sales and customer satisfaction.' Basically, it is very helpful to have an out-going, friendly, patient and trustworthy personality, to be able to deal with a variety of people - customers and work mates. As the job deals with music and money, it is very useful to have a sound knowledge of music and to know your figures...numbers that is.
What are the best aspects about your job?
Working with awesome people in a happy environment where we can listen to music all day and don't have to wear 'fez' uniforms. We get to bond heaps by checking out the hottie customers, (especially the overseas tourists from Sweden during Tennis season) and hanging out at Sanity parties. Oh, not to forget the CD discounts - more Vengaboys CDs Andy! YAY!
What are the worst aspects?
Sunday morning shifts after a Saturday night of pure partying! Also, impatient, smelly, freaky customers who can't speak properly and don't put CDs in the right section - GET SOME DEODERANT PEOPLE! As well as independent CDs, which are a pain to find.
How many years' experience do you have in this field?
Only 9 months baby!
Are there many employment opportunities?
Yes, there are - it's just a matter of having the motivation to take the initiative to go out and apply for a job!

Job Title
A Happy Ghurl
Job Description
Well as a Melbourne's Most Wanted Phone Chick, I have several duties during the course of the show. I don't always do them of course, because us 'Happy Ghurls' are too busy frolicking around the studios and perving on Ed Phillips....mmmm, he is a honey!
I get to go on air a fair bit and read out messages from the listeners, and Andy G keeps bugging me because I don't get any action. 'Libido' is kinda in the same boat but we don't really mind because 'Mix Master Mikey' gets enough for all of us combined!
When people ring up to vote, I take their votes down to make up the countdown, and I love the dancy stuff because then we can all dance around the studio. That is if there is room because Andy leaves his stuff everywhere and messes the place up! Hmmm....I guess I'm a cleaner as well? It's all part of the job of being a 'Happy Ghurl'!
Hours (per week)
I usually work from Monday to Friday, 7-10pm and arrive about 15 minutes before the show starts or 15 minutes after. That is when I usually get into trouble by Andy and Jen and they tell me off! I just blame it on my car Randy (hehe). I usually stay behind after the show has finished to finalise the votes and just to hang out with the TT posse - 'Captain Turntable' thinks I live at the station and blames me for the mildew infested shower!
What was your first job?
The first job I ever had was working as a 'Cookie chick' at Mrs Field's Cookies. I ate a lot of cookies while working there - they rule the cookie world!! On my first ever shift the whole entire register fell on me, it was really embarrassing because my finger got stuck in between two of the register buttons! Everyone kept on screaming at me pull your finger out Paula! That was one scary experience!
What inspired you to choose this particular career?
Who could refuse the idea of free CDs, meeting hot guys and hanging with the celebs?
What qualifications are needed to work in this field?
Basically if you can read, write, talk and clean you're qualified for the 'Happy Ghurl' job! Oh yeah, you have to be happy all the time too!
What are the best aspects about your job?
Meeting really interesting people over the phones as well as in person. There are also the free CDs, concerts and all the hot boys we get to meet and drool over!
What are the worst aspects?
There is only one worst aspect and that is NOT GETTING PAID! Man, that really sucks...
How many years' experience do you have in this field?
Years? Try months! Before TTFM, 'Libido' and myself had a brief stint on Knox FM for 3 months with a show called Crank It Up! Then we burdened TTFM with our presence. I wonder what ever happened to Knox FM? (hehe)
Are there many employment opportunities?
Yes, there are many opportunities but the key factor is to be persistent and show your motivation to get into the industry.
Other related careers
I would love to work in TV but you need to be hot! There are heaps of hotties in TV i.e. Ed Phillips. Oh, I am also a 'Maccas chick'! Although it is not really related to radio or TV, it does also involve me having to deal with demanding, snotty people wanting more than your regular fries, just like callers demanding for more Vengaboys CDs.
