Morbid articles about firing people when you're running out of cash are great. Reminds me not to work with people who don't have the personal integrity to take some responsibility instead of acting like a jerk on the first sign of trouble.
- stickfigure 7y agoWhat is your proposed alternative? What does "take some responsibility" mean when you're staring at the end of the runway?
- nurettin 7y agoHave some personal wealth to spend on wages for a few more months instead of "sadly letting people go". Because you are not sad, not on a runway and what you are riding was definitely not a plane.

- nurettin 7y agothose are all good ideas. And more realistic than most startup demands. My point is, put your hand under the rock instead of pissing off. Clear enough now?
- stickfigure 7y agoI genuinely have no idea what you just said.

- stickfigure 7y agoYou sound like the critic that has never been in the arena.
