i sure know how to pick `em

It looks like gBox has sold off all of its employees to eFORCE Global, who will then turn around and rent our services to gBox to support the application.  We get new offer letters on Tuesday.  This happened after another deal we had on the table fell through earlier this week, primarily due to rampant ego problems on the part of our angel funder.

On the plus side, this is the last time he's going to screw us.  But it's hard to imagine that the team we have now will remain intact after this 270° jerk.  And, naturally, it's entirely possible we're all going to get lowballed on Tuesday.  I wanted to come here, and decided to stay, because i'm calling the shots and rebuilding the infrastructure in my own image, and i accepted the risks because of that.  But it still sucks.

It seems ominous that the first four words from the eFORCE careers page are "Working@eFORCE" and "Human Capital." Good luck!

Not nearly as ominous as their vision (http://www.eforceglobal.com/aboutus/vision.html).
