To be fair, I wasn't canned. I did quit. And I did give them the rest of the week (Tuesday - Friday) on a strict 8 hour workday.

- Peaker 13y agoWhich company was it? They sound like they deserve the bad publicity. You might save someone else from ending up there too...
- justrudd 13y agoIt was Splatter Consulting in RTP. They don't exist anymore. They shutdown probably 7 months after I walked. This was back in '98. The deadline "we couldn't miss" was to build a product. This product would move them from consulting to a product company. It was actually a neat product. Had to do with camera optic systems. Writing software that interacts with hardware was really cool. It still is, but I've gotten lazy and enjoy being wasteful using a whole byte for a boolean and what not... After I left, it was probably 4 months before everyone but the 2 sales guys and President were laid off. They lasted 3 more months before folding. I actually left a good job to take this one. Lured me away with money :) Like I said - young and stupid.
