I didn't realize there was so much money in to-do lists.

  There is obviously more to it than that, but it was my thought way back when. I interviewed with Mike and Scott when there didn't seem to be many other people involved. A few days later the company I worked for started the process of getting acquired. I tossed up what I thought my share options might be worth against two guys who seemed to be just out of uni with a bug tracker. I called them back and said I'd stay where I was. My options were worth nothing. Joke was on me big time! Later on lots of my dev team ended up working for Atlassian and I thought it might be time to check it out again. I went for an interview and was told I wasn't smart enough, despite the fact I'd already mentored a bunch of their devs. At least they gave me an interview. Most places don't 'cause I don't have the book learning to get past HR.
