I am a Sysadmin. I built the network, I built the mail server, I built the VOIP system, and I built the DVR security system. I have control over all of these things. I know what happens here before anyone else does. I see your every move, can listen to your every phone call, and yes, I can read your email.
We are not regular employees. We aren't the boss. We occupy a grey area, because we control everything.
My system has millions of dollars flowing through it. You trust me with that, but have a problem with reading an email?
I am a Sysadmin. Trust me or not. Me reading your email is the least of your problems should you choose not to trust me.
Then go watch TXH1138. Not saying its good or bad, but it was considered "arty" when I went to film school.
Everyone seems to be forgetting that Lucas is as far outside and independent as anyone CAN be from Hollywood. EP4 assured that (and American Grafitti before that). He's making what HE wants to make, and just because he might be out of touch with his "consumers" doesn't mean he's a hollywood lapdog.
This seems to work both ways. Employeers don't owe workers very much these days. Lets face it, this generation is not going to stay at the same company for 30 years then retire (too bad, cuz damn, we sure wanted that gold watch)! The way it's going now is that you stay at a job between 1 and 3 years. No longer than that. It's a matter of money for workers. If you stay at a job, a good place will give you roughly 10% a year raise. That's nice. If you jump jobs after a year or two you can get 30% or better. Are those days over? No, not for the people who's skills are in demand. For entry level people, yes, the market REALLY sucks. For the in-demand worker, it makes sense to "jump ship" (or jump the shark!) every few years.
ahhhh....good memories! TV didn't get any better than this! Not only do you have Bea Aurther singing a song as a bartender, but Princess Leia doing a song and dance with the wookies!!! Plus the first intro of Bobba Fett (as a cartoon no less)! Whoo Hoo! I remember sitting in front of the tv to watch this thing. I was the perfect age to enjoy the hell out of it! But no vcr back in 1978, curse the luck! Time to run over to ebay and buy a copy!:-)
