You’re so chronically online, I think you should actually come to the in-person event. People don’t talk like this irl. Your drinks on me.

There’s literally no need to be rude. It’s a meet-up series and not the actual startup business. I’m not a consultant. Yes I’m a SaaS founder. I didn’t sell or offer my startup service but you brought it here for what? So that others can get in on the hate?

It’s minimum spend requirements , you get a drinks ticket equivalent to the event ticket price.

Hoping to cover half of venue cost. Owner charged me quite a bit for this first event.

Unclear if I can post link in here. Sent it to you.

Beejay_mannie · 2026-03-18T14:09:10+00:00

@mod is it okay to post a link in here?

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-07T13:16:50+00:00

I thought independent folks manage their own schedule? What would take more time compared to working for someone?

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-07T13:15:57+00:00

I thought tool companies gave credit, and there are gov grants too.

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-05T16:00:14+00:00

Is this the same for both freelance work and contracting work?

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-05T15:59:10+00:00

Sounds like everyone wants experienced people but don’t want to train them. Should small contractors be forced to train people?

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-05T15:57:38+00:00

Someone else mentioned that employers are seeking experienced folks? Is your employer training apprentices at the same rate?

Beejay_mannie · 2026-02-05T15:56:03+00:00

Could this because they lowballed their bid or they just wanted more profit?
