Worst Manager I've Ever Had

Worst Manager Ever Worst Manager I've Ever Had Worst Manager Ever Okay so I recently quit my good paying job to start my second start-up. To be honest, it was like finishing a very, very cushy prison sentence. Don't get me wrong, the job was awesome, great pay, awesome benefits, deals every where: Hotels, computers, Restaurants, Clothing, everything. The only downside to it was my manager. We'll call her SB, for sake of...

Being "Half-Way Successful" for my age Pt. 1 + New Business Venture and Project

Wow, didn't realize that my last post was in January, holy moly. Well a lot has happened since then.

It sucks to say because I was really...
