Re: Vanessa Fox…
Brief Stint??? 4 months is not a “brief stint”…it’s a coffee break. Obviously, something was very wrong.

@Dean – I can’t speak for Vanessa – she can correct me if I’m wrong – but I never got the impression that Zillow was a permanent gig for her. Maybe they offered her a ton of money to spend 4 months downloading her Google data.
