I'm not a rookie

I'm going to make this short.

I've been in journalism for seven years, four longer than the next-experienced person. Although this is my first year at the Chronicle, I get sick and tired of people thinking I'm a rookie at journalism. First off, I could have been editor in chief, but I didn't want to do that. The Chronicle is a journalism lab. I've been there and done that. I figured I'd let someone else not as experienced as me have a shot at it.

I don't like it when these "editors" give me suggestions, especially when I know what the hell I'm doing. If they're looking for "supervisor points" over me, I'm not that kind of person to do that to.

Bottom line: Don't insult my experience!
