"No joke...He's a Balanese pop-star"
twain insisted i post this one, so here goes...did you ever know those people who you know haven't quite hit their stride? at four11, we worked with this guy called karsten who was an it ops guy. never quite seemed like silicon valley was the place for him...the guy goes dark for like 7 years, then we get this email from another co-worker, discovering where karsten has resurfaced.
he writes "No joke...He's a Balanese pop-star." and attaches this pic:
turns out, according to this website, he has found his niche: "American bandleader Karsten Schroeer swapped a life in San Francisco for the cosmopolitan blend of Singapore culture and music, before making the next musical progression to Bali. The band's Bandung musicians—Bagja Subagja, Asep Sukmana and Gun Gun Permana — perform on traditional instruments."

This guy didn't even have a CHECKING ACCOUNT when he worked at Four 11. And started out just helping move computers around.
He ended up getting a job in Yahoo! MIS and must have done quite well with his stock opto's.
