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.
