I am convinced budget meetings were created by client vampires determined to suck the life force out of their agency. And why the f*ck can no one work a WebEx!

As a former IT person. I can say WebEx sucks.

WebEx is the absolute worst. I feel I had better (easier) conferencing tools (voice and screen share) back in 2009!

Apologies for the thread hijack, back to hating on budget meetings. Those sucked back in 2009 too.

All true.

webex also just upgraded for some ppl, so learning curve is real

I’ve somehow made it through my entire career without ever having a standing budget meeting. 😬😅

For startup founders/people with a successful side project: How did you get the idea/inspiration for your business? I’m currently working at a Series B startup and my end goal has always been to found my own startup, but I graduated from college 2.5 years ago and I still have not had any great ideas cross my mind. I do spend a fair amount of time brainstorming. I don’t want to continue working here forever, but I’m struggling to generate that “this is it” idea to build a company for. Any advice?

Has anyone received equity as contingency comp? I have a potential client with a founders dispute. He doesn’t have cash, and the other founder ripped him off and is now running the company. He wants to sue for equity and wants to pay me with whatever equity he wins. I’ve never done a deal like that. Is that even enforceable? CA law. The startup is actually quite promising.
