Printing the Daily Newspaper

"Budget cuts to Los Angeles County Sheriff's means upper management will be out on the streets patrolling with the rank and file deputies. Yes, even The Sheriff Lee Baca himself may pull you over for running that stop sign."

Sounds similar to the Los Angeles Times Press room as the supervisors are now making reel changes and removing used printing plates, a pressman's job, as they did last Thursday February 25th. It's rather obvious we have cut our manning to levels that are unable to be met by the current staffing we are attempting to implement at the newspaper.

Last week we called upon our Orange County Production Facility only once on the swing shift for assistance, and last night we just made our deadline and did not need assistance from our brothers and sisters to the south.

Today will prove to be a very hectic day as we produce the Friday newspaper, that has a special wrap for Alice in Wonderland. Representatives from Disney will be on hand as well as management from the Los Angeles Times.

Our delivery agents are hoping we deliver their newspapers in a timely manner as they will be stuffing all the newspapers in between the special advertisement jacket.

The next few months will be very trying, but the men and women in Operations will be doing what they do best, produce and package our subscribers newspapers in a timely fashion.
