A "vertical" is just a content area, as Jesse and Jessica said. It's a stupid buzzword, too!
Huh. And I actually work for (or should I say "am aligned with") an "industry vertical". Though at least that is in a longstanding sense of the word. Or so I tell myself.
I saw your FB post but didn't know the real name connection.
Yeah, I can't even fathom it. She's the one who started YesVirginia, it was through her I met a ton of people who continue to be close friends. I hadn't seen her in years, but man, what a shock.
Consuela, I'm so sorry for your loss.
That's awful, Consuela. I'm so sorry.
Hec, that is horrifying! Jesus.
job~ma to Sparky and Jesse.
Thanks, but it's Jess with the brouhaha.
Sometimes disability-rights people call ABs verticals...imagine my confusion.
That just makes me laugh.
Consuela, I'm so sorry. That's terrible. And she was so young!
Consuela, I'm sorry. That's so sad.
Consuela, I'm so sorry.
Eep, Hec! How scary!
Late to the party, but here's my job description using that site:
I watch what people say on the computer and get them help if they need it.
I can't believe online and Internet aren't in the most used words!
Oh, Consuela that's so sad.
Jesus, Hec. That's awful.
It is! Over fucking sneakers. Their school district (a really good one, incidentally) has had to deal with this incident, a middle school teacher committing suicide after being charged with having sex with a student, and another girl in the HS who drowned. All in this same school year.
