Aquaman, Downsizing Survivor, Sleeps
with the Fishes: Is
it better to lose your job in a merger? Or be the last one standing?
For Aquaman, a Web developer at a large bank, survival is boring,
but beats sinking to the bottom.
Steve Gilliard, Web Writer and Damn'
Proud of It: Stephen Gilliard appeared one day on the
NetSlaves radar screen and has become an integral part of what we do
on this crazy site ever since. In the following interview (long
overdue), Steve reveals the man behind the words and as usual,
spares no one.
Calling Desktop Support. The Words
& Wisdom of Hess, Garbageman: Have you ever wondered
what's on the mind of your friendly neighborhood support person?
Well, here's your chance to find out. You may not like what you
read, but hey, you're just going to have to get over it. We did --
although it did take a while for the stinging to subside.
Jill, Enlightened NetSlave for the
Ages: Jill Maxi Schreibman isn't after a big IPO. She
doesn't want to get rich in the Net business -- like many NetSlaves,
she just wants to get by and save enough money to eventually get out
and do something meaningful -- like having her own ice cream truck.
With all the hype you hear these days about technology, Jill is a
breath of fresh air and the advice she gives fellow NetSlaves has a
value the market will ever understand.
Kathy, Net DJ Does More Than Run
Her Mouth: Kathy is a Net DJ. No, she isn't one of those
people broadcasting from her bedroom to three people out there. She
works for a serious station that uses real equipment and actually
has a budget. If you're as amazed as we are about this, read on. You
might learn something you could use for "My Own World" radio. Of
course, you could always go back to shouting over the ol' police
scanner.
Lorie Simms, Online Erotic
Publisher: Like many NetSlaves at the bottom rungs of the
Great New Media Chain of Being, Lorie Simms writes, edits, codes
HTML and Javascript, with the difference being that instead of doing
it for an Internet company, Lorie labors at her own private venture,
which some have labeled "pornography". (Note: The following
interview contains language and descriptions of certain online
encounters which are definitely inappropriate for NetSlaves under
the age of 18).
Murray the XXX, Porn
Spammer: NetSlaves interviews a spokesman for the
"untouchable" "Cops & Streetwalkers" Caste of NetSlaves, and he
reveals inside secrets about how he practices the sleazy, but
lucrative trade that powers much of today's e-commerce.
