Years ago, copy editors worked at large U-shaped tables. The chief editor's desk, in the opening of the "U," was "the slot." Copy went from rim editors to a slot editor for a final read. Rimmers proudly called themselves rimrats.

FIRED!
I can't give you a link to a story yet because I haven't seen one posted. Kristine No-Last-Name-Given, one of the last six candidates standing in the current season of Donald Trump's Apprentice, was canned tonight because she put the wrong phone number on a sales brochure. Ow! Now, if she had been a copy editor, she would have known to call the number before committing it to print, right? :-)
