    Should have just fired the CEO instead, would’ve saved millions and the company in one go.

    Just last week, they were posting job listings for DevOps engineers. Glad the CEO’s bullshit stopped me from even considering it.

    Two months ago they had enough money to buy Beeper, though. I guess all those Beeper employees jobs are up in the air now, too.

    God, fuck Matt Mullenweg and fuck Eric Migicovksy. This is the second time Migicovsky has fucked his workers with who he chose to sell the company to, the first time being Pebble.

      Might be time for a rewrite in something more modern anyway.
