Having gone through a very underfunded public school system I felt inadequate and I was able to coast by through college. Though I feel like Im capable now I still feel inadequate sometimes. Thoughts?

You have to find a way to counter those thoughts. If you weren’t adequate you wouldn’t be in accounting. If you feel less knowledgeable on something then take the initiative to study and figure it out or ask detailed questions. Don’t let nobody or any job make you feel inadequate.

So, I just joined a startup. No processes, no clear strategy, just one goal: selling. Getting leads. When ever I try to build a strategy, they (founders) swamp me with blablabla stories and not a single action plan. Is this the usual at startups? Also,no real company culture. At all. No HR. I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia

Any craft beer brewers here?

In the last two year I’ve gotten more and more into alcohol free beer. The selection in my country (Europe) is still small and mainly driven by the big brands (e.g. Heineken). My idea is to start my own small brewery which only produces alcohol free beer as a bit of a pendant to the booming local craft beer industry. Any thoughts on that idea or someone who has experience in the market?
