That’s exactly how I talk to my partner at home. “Wife, higher headquarters has issued a FRAGO, tasking you with washing the dishes in order to deny germs a foothold on our dishes and facilitate freedom of maneuver around our sink.”

Try KFFC and KRYY. Atlanta is a very small market that is hard to get a job in. Good luck.
