That's a great deal for your mom, I'm glad she was able to get such an amazing deal.

On the other hand, Zenefits is an unprofitable startup with huge internal problems. Clearly, expecting them to provide such sorts of benefits would be beyond unreasonable.

That's the "dotcom" part, but yeah.

I strongly beg to differ. That's just every startup in general. The dotcom days were way more debaucherous and perverse than what's going on today with startups.

Sorry, my mistake, I was using "dotcom" for the larger movement beyond the 2000 crash, including today. I was there, I can see the differences and similarities.
