First off, you shouldn’t change subjects. We were talking about how your request for an apprentice is unfair. However, I’ll allow it since it’s another bad point. YOU are the entrepreneur! If you can’t pay then you shouldn’t be paid to teach. Also, if you can’t pay for work then don’t ask for workers. You are trying to get paying labor (people who work for you and pay for the work) which is horrible and greedy. Who you are doesn’t change you’re greedy and selfish.
- jessehorne 7y agoI don't think you understand. I am the aspiring entrepreneur looking for a mentor.
- 100100010001 7y agoLMAO!!! I’m so sorry!!! I thought you were offering your services as a mentor and asking apprentices to pay. Please, don’t pay for a mentor. There are so many enthusiastic people in this industry that I am 100% positive you’ll be able to find someone to help you out for free. Once again, I’m very sorry!
- jessehorne 7y agoNo problem! It took me so long to realize what was going on in this conversation. I apologize for not being more clear. I ended up just posting a more blunt Ask HN here if you'd like to follow along.
