In Reply To: I am looking for volunteers to be interviewed for a piece I'm writing about the sort of neurotic breakdown that occurs when people are laid off for long periods of time. Most specifically I'm looking for people who have lost their jobs in the dot-com sector through no real fault of their own and who have had trouble finding additional work because of the problems in the economy. Your real names will not be used out of consideration for your continuing quest for a job. Please contact me at mfresen@bellatlantic.net -- the publication in question is Flak Magazine (www.flakmagazine.com). Thanks in advance.
Message: You should have worded this a bit differently: Something like: Have you been fired not because of your own foolish delusions in becoming a millionare for doing nothing (DOT.COM), but because your a great visionary, yet NOBODY will hire you? If your angry and bored I have a job for you? You can do my job, for free. Just write me and tell me how you feel and I'll tell others what you feel and make money off it. You won't get a job, but hey at least you'll have the satifaction of knowing that you did mine. Thanks, FLAKEMAGAZINE P.S. We care about you.
