There's the famous case of the FedEx guy who told his staff he could pay for fuel for the planes or pay their wages. He then went to Vegas and gambled the money to keep the business going. That's how we got FedEx. Irresponsibility and recklessness.
It's not an isolated story. For every successful business that doesn't something insane and wins there are 10 that fail. We never heard about all the other shipping startups that failed and whose employees went home with empty paychecks. We praise this fucked up psychopathic level of risk taking, and then we end up with companies and cut throat and toxic as Uber.
