Hey, it could have been worse. A friend of a friend had the rotten luck of getting hired at a company, moving across the country, and getting laid off within the first week due to the company shutting its doors, not once but on two separate occasions!
I was the first hire with good equity...so I guess I was just plain greedy and not thinking straight. Or maybe it was the boredom that comes from working at a safe job in a bank...I was plain ecstatic to get back into a startup.Mostly my greed and idiocy. Am never going to be so trusting again.
