    You Weren’t Meant to Have a Boss Want to start a startup? Get funded by [Y Combinator]

    Be someone’s boss? But then they’d have a boss.

      Solution: have a trade, work for yourself

      Been going pretty well for me for a couple years now. I should hire a helper though, its becoming obvious how much I lose in time to doing helper work and I enjoy teaching

      Edit: not the best advice in this case

              I am deeply sorry friend. :( one of the many shitty things about capitalism is how it ties your ability to exist to your career

                Yup. Future looks like a mass shooting at a corporate building with a letter of resignation from life on me.

                Yay!

                  I cannot claim to much experience that you would find useful and for that im sorry.

                  The best I can offer is Zen Buddhism and empathy

                    Thanks. It could be a lot worse I guess.

                    Baby, what do you want? I’ve got a closet full of hats I’ve accumulated over a 25 year “career.”
