the generalized hatey kind of baffles me, and maybe it's based on misconceptions or thinking only of the worst of the worst.

i have been fortunate to work with people who are not like that. and, also, for a well-run and successful and honest company.

Indeed. Ditto for yachts. But this hatey (and the associated misconceptions) stems from 80s-style business tactics. - Beryllium Nov 19, 16:00 2
- ah, i get that; and it presented with some dot-coms, too. i'm not a fan of willy-nilly spending, even for successful companies. -- nm - b! Nov 19, 16:08 1
  - Indeed. While some willy-nilly spending is OK in good times, you have to prove that you're fiscally capable of withstanding bad times. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 19, 16:10
