Comment on Dear Mark Zuckerberg (2012)

Comments

The executive apologized and said he would take my feedback under consideration.

Wow software 'entrepreneurs' are really pathetic sometimes. This is not the normal cutthroat business that normally happens in the real world... So the Facebook executive apologised for giving OP a generous offer to buy their startup which Facebook doesn't even need anymore? Sounds like charity to me. OP is a spoiled brat in my opinion. Based on my experience, what should have happened is the executive should have laughed at him all the way to the door for being so foolish/arrogant.

Now you understand why Facebook is full of entitled jerks... They acquihired them.

I didn't realise that OP works for YC now. This explains why Facebook execs treated him so nicely. It just shows the double standards people have in the industry when dealing with financially well connected people vs regular people.
