I’m depressed, just shoot me lord
So here I sit at this software company. Millions of lines of code, internal fighting all day long, development stuff that stretches into the far east, telecom providers beating us up to lower prices, we need more employees, it’s all complicated. We struggle to make money, we struggle to make our quarterly number, competition always [...]
