“My husband needs a job”

my husband needs a job

This is the disturbing story of what happens when a domain name is hijacked. A wife was tired of seeing her husband, Michael Stearns, desperately looking for a job. The year being 2009 instead of 1929, Robin Stearns set up a web site called.

At first, the site “has brought dozens of e-mails from both employers and other people in a similar situation“.

Things start to be interesting when Godaddy decided to redirect the domain name to an empty page.

I do hope Godaddy will give whatever money they make from the ads on that page to Robin. Unless of course some company hires the husband for the publicity value alone.

@SFT: LMFAO.

Seriously, this is an absolute joke. I had the same problem with Godaddy, but I realized it ASAP. Called them up and they told me to work with the FAQ section. I knew how to fix it, I was just curious to see what they would say!

Ridiculous anyone would have to go through this. Can you imagine how much traffic was lost?
