David Stewart
Director of Human Resources
david@tripod.com
This laid-back Canadian was a Tripodian long before he actually started
working here. (Being a Tripod spouse and a ping pong guru will do that
for you.) We all thought of him as an extremely low-key guy, but get him
across the border and the crazy Canuck comes out of his shell he skats,
he sings French Molson ads, he does the best impersonations this side
of SNL... But mainly he just destroys everyone at ping pong.
Heather Snowman
Assistant Controller
heather@tripod.com
She's not frosty, but she is a former ski bunny from the slopes
in Colorado Springs, CO. As Assistant
Controller, Heather's keeping all of us and our resident bean counter, Bruce, in line. (Which is hard to do considering how often Bruce injures himself.)
Heather worked for Apple, and we knew that she was destined to work for
Tripod when she confessed that she washed her mother's $200 calculator
when she was a little girl. Keep an eye on the servers!
Gail Burns
Receptionist
gburns@tripod.com
We're not sure what Gail heard from the last receptionist we hired, but she
recently placed three crocheted balls on her desk, for us to throw if we
need her attention. Was she afraid we'd throw something heavier if a
woollen ball wasn't handy? Not likely -- Gail can beat any editor when it
comes to writing on a deadline, and she just happens to be married to the
local cookie god. And then there's that javelin propped oh-so-casually
behind her desk...
