I have worked in the Internet industry since 1993, at companies including Digex, SkyCache (Cidera), HIS.com, Colocation corporation and Verizon. I also worked nearly two years for a childrens' resort here in Williamsburg. It was a truly crappy work environment but it allowed me to finally move in with my husband. It iss the only job I have ever walked away from with no regrets. I'm not bitter. I should have left long before I did. OK I guess I can say nearly the same thing about my last job at Vitesco. Don't worry, I didn't sign their Non-disparagement or take their hush money so I'm totally allowed to talk about it. Still, common to both cases was extreme disrespect and in Vitesco's case a little ass-covering by a manager.
So now I'm retired and not interested in going back to another meat-grinder tech job where I'll be disrespected and unseen.
I'm doing what I swore I'd never do - take care of a household while some man pays the bills. But I'm lucky I CAN do that so I'm taking the deal for now. House, yard, dog and some lite tech work here and there. A little travel. A little aikido, a little karate (depending on that knee) and getting back in to gym rat life.
Also fending off or ignoring occasional offers to buy this domain. TL;DR - I got it in 1994 and I'm in no hurry to offload it.
