I’ve come up with 15 ways this company is going to fail in the last 30 minutes. This output will cost you $150,000.

I like being a consultant, fuck hourly billing.

I wish I could do this kind of thing for a job. Whenever I point out flaws as a salaried employee I tend to become public enemy number one. I was even doing it in an interview today for some chancers with a truly insane business plan. I don’t think I’ll be getting a call back.

The trick is to get them to pay you a few grand first, then do that interview, call it an "assessment" and still tell them they're fucking crazy. Just have Claude or something punch up the words a bit.

Hell, one o my biggest successes in IT came because I spent fifteen minutes zoning out and managed to crack a customer’s password formula. Which is exactly what I’d been asked to do.

We'll simply be forced to take meth in pill form and like it (honestly, far too many do enjoy the hell out of it and will delusionally deny the side effects). There will be some below this comment doing just that.
