Offloading finance should arguably come before offloading janitorial. You can be thinking about other things while emptying rubbish bins.

- dandare 11y agoI certainly agree - my metaphor was about how little money startups have for hiring professionals in general.
- logicallee 11y agoyou're a company. you're built to make something and grow it. outsourcing financials (I don't mean getting help with them, but actually offloading them) is in some ways like outsourcing development. the "CEO" personally does finances for the same reason the "CTO" personally codes. If either of them can't do something they learn it. Sam is saying: learn these words.
- dllthomas 11y agoI do want to make a distinction between "offloading" and "outsourcing". That said, you may very well be correct. My point was simply that, if it's a good idea, it's mostly not for the same reason that has the CEO emptying waste baskets.
