From the Freelance Files: “The Company Toadstool”
The Inquiry:
My company is looking to make some updates to our intranet page. It was created in Dreamweaver a number of years ago, and I’ve been making basic updates to it over the past year or so (mainly copying and pasting existing code to add to our document database). We’d like to spruce things up well beyond what I know how to do in Dreamweaver.
Translation:
My company builds jetpacks for orphans and operates twelve mining colonies on Mars, but because they’re so goddamned cheap, they still force me to use a typewriter to send out memos. Please save me from this data entry hell before I throw myself out an airlock.
