Or the resume wasn't thrown out by the HR person. It was passed along to the department hiring manager, which is what actually happens 100% of the times where the resume fits the job description, and it was the department hiring manage

You do realize that HR doesn't actually hire people (except for HR roles of course), department managers make the hiring decisions. HR is there to support the process.

Agreed. Let's just ignore this. Next article please.

At some point her real resume was fresh, and it doesn't sound like she experienced the same level of response then that she received on her fake fresh resume. Of course maybe the insurance industry wasn't hiring as eagerly when he

don't mean to quote from the book of Jobs, but he had a fitting answer: "When you're young, you look at television and think, There's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little o

yahoo is trading a sliver of goodwill from people that can now get their name of choice for incredibly pissed off former users that lost emails they relied on. Just because they havn't logged into them, doesn't mean they weren&#x2

My guess is they all got the same template of what they're allowed to say. With something this sensitive the language is very important, especially for public company communications.

The truth comes from the source that wasn't intended to be public.

Sounds like some one (or many) are blowing whistles. A lot of documents leaking.

You do understand it was sold as a one-time payment for perpetual use, not a month to month service. Those are very different expectations, regardless how the math works out.

I'd like to know how breeze customers feel about it.

by anon808 13y ago
They don't have to make the customer whole, i'm just saying we shouldn't expect customers to be happy just because they got their money back.
74.
by anon808 13y ago
Then they shouldn't promise 'unlimited'. Why not pay as you go. If I pay monthly I expect to have the product for the month. If I pay forever I expect to have the product for forever.

The economics are different, backpack customers I assume still pay to use the service so there's a revenue stream to maintain a small customer base. Breeze customers already paid, so if they kept supporting existing breeze customers they'd

Great point, it does look like a shift in how they're sunseting their products. I agree with David's approach to ta-da list, writeboard, backpack, but not with breeze.

37S already does the whitelist heavy lifting for their other services (esp basecamp) that push tons of emails out.

by anon808 13y ago
I think that's exactly right, the transaction pitched to customers is not what it turned out to be, and that's never good, no matter how it's communicated. I think people are choosing to see this from 37S (or any other software co's) perspe
79.
by anon808 13y ago
yeah, but the customer didn't want the money, they wanted the service. That's why they gave the money in the first place. Obviously it's a very good showing that 37S is refunding customers their money, but I wouldn't be completely happy if

Just because it's political for some people doesn't mean it's political for all. Discounting honest protests by some because others are politically motivated is one-dimensional thinking.

I'd like to rent it, because that's whats actually happening.

by anon808 13y ago
I'm uncomfortable with the one-time pricing. This is the second product 37S has released with that pricing scheme (first: basecamp breeze). could be an innovation. i think it creates more ambiguity. if i pay onetime for something I feel lik

Marco makes a lot of Steve Jobs comparisons in the write up, genuinely curious, did he work with Steve Jobs?

Not condemning anyone for wanting to sell, simply asking why would I choose to use any product this guy makes when he tells me he'd be willing to "delete all user accounts and data and shut down the entire service forever" if that were a co

The goal of a business is no more to make money, than breathing is the goal of a human.

knowing that's how you feel, why would I (or anyone) use anything you make?

it's obviously written in that voice for effect, but there is actual thought behind it. comparing google glasses to segway is valid, and probably not far off. only time will tell.
