Its always fun working with start ups. Infact my current job is my 3rd. But hidden inside the fun part is a lot of hard work and some frustrating times fighting fires which just don't get doused.
I am currently fighting such a fire and it has left me exhausted over the past few weeks. My eyes are dropping dead as I type and hopefully I will catch a good share of my 40 winks tonight to come back tomorrow fresh. But these fights are great learning experiences and have been the cornerstone of my confidence.
We are currently faced with a herculean task of launching our online business. But there are chunks in the code which are rendering the site unstable and we are working very hard with the developers to fix the problem. This has also helped expose certain holes in the product which are critical for to address in the long term.
So while the fight goes on, I am working hard to keep our team motivated and pushing myself very hard not to get beaten down. It is turning out to be more difficult than I thought.
But what the heck! Shit happens and we gotta face it.
Atta boy!
