    1. That was longwinded, not to mention you wasted my time plugging your own project. 2. I'm not sure why you had to change the metaphor. "Hammer" works fine. 3. I'd disagree. I act…

    You learned how the real world works. It's inefficient, it's not fair, and it's corrupt.

    lol, wow. The arrogance of this guy is amazing!! "I will allow you 2 hours of my time. If I like you, you get a good grade. My decision is final." This was the exact reason I avoid…

    Ok. Let's do this. Let's form a company. We're co-founders, okay? Now. I'm going to have a kid, take 4 months off, and leave work 5pm everyday. How do you feel?
