        Would it help you solve the problem if I acted like one of those tech “visionaries” fired half your coworkers, posted problematic stuff on social media, stole your credit, worked you to the bone, and then micromanaged your output at the last moment?

        Cause I am just saying I already own a black turtleneck and wear glasses.

            That’s the kinda synergy team player attitude I like. I will have a temp worker contact you about onboarding after the first round of venture funding. Thinking a billion.
