Good luck Kelly.

I'm hoping to hear back from several jobs and I sit here worrying about them rejecting me because they may find out about my political orientation by searching shit online. The fucking job circus is so ridiculous that this morning I got an email from a young librarian who asked me to take an interview off of Infoshop News that we did with her last year. The interview is mostly about zines, but she is having problems finding jobs and is concerned that employers are searching for her name on the Internet and finding this perfectly normal interview.

Google and Internet discrimination sucks. Don't get me started on the headache I had with dumbshit volunteers at Wikipedia who fucked up my ability to find work by putting personal information into that goddamn "encyclopedia." Then the motherfuckers had the balls to SUSPEND ME and NOMINATE MY ENTRY FOR DELETION because I tried to remove personal information from that website.

I think I'm at the point were I'm willing to consider an honest profession such as becoming an online pornographer.
