   You need to work on organization. I get it hard as hell and their asking a lot, but a lot of what you're "suppose to" do to get good grades and learn is bullshit.

    I always just did my homework at school in middle and high school. I graduated high school in 2009, so I imagine kids get a lot more homework now?

    Unless you're a founder, joining a startup is a terrible deal. There's no two ways about it.
