A person's satisfaction with their job can usually be gauged by their general attitude and the amount of time that they spend actually doing what their supposed to be doing during the work day.

Using that theory as a baseline and then hearing about Rock n' Roll Geek Michael Butler's actions makes me wonder just how happy this dude is with his place in podcast nirvana.

Jason from IRN reports on IR77 that Mike showed severe disdain for a band he was about to interview, complaining that he was tired and didn't want to deal with asking questions to a band that happen to be his label mates. I listened to the recording and the dude did not sound happy doing what he was doing. That's a shame because there's nothing fun about listening to a guy bitch about having to interview a band.

Jason also offers up that Mike said he spent a good part of an afternoon working on his MySpace page instead of signing up labels to be on the Podsafe Music Network. I didn't hear this in the audio on Jason's show but if it's true then I'd say that's a problem.

Do these actions constitute a bad day for Butler or signs of a pattern of demotivation among PodShow employees? Only time will tell my friends.
