So I’m not a paying customer.
And I am incredibly grateful to YC for everything they do for the startup community.
But it is absolutely gutting to get the thumbs up, tell the team, and then get the thumbs down.
I can handle it, but my team is demoralised.
Time to find something to boost them up.
- snowmaker 8y agoI appreciate your understanding, but just because it's a free program doesn't give us an excuse to hurt people's feelings. I hope you find something to boost your team soon.
- jaredsk 8y agoI just went through the exact same thing with my team...makes me look unreliable as well as them. of course we are all understanding in the long run. but at the time...kills morale
- joshmanders 8y agoI never even applied, but I urged a buddy to and he come to me basically jumping joy that he was accepted, and I've been frantically pinging him on Slack to make sure he didn't get the oopsie error email and that he was really accepted. I feel for you all. :/
