“They” don’t always give you the full scope of your mission when first handed the assignment. Only a glimpse.
The assignment was simple - secret carport lab, lay low, do cool s***, defeat relentless.com with the alien tech.
Sling a few products on a website (all drop-shipped of course), work on a cool project, maybe build a motor here and there. That was the plan. Intentional diversification, if one thing has more interest at any given time, that’s what gets the attention.
But no one prepares you for when everything in the portfolio takes off and what started as cute puppies are now raging pitbulls that you now have to figure out how to contain. All while a fourth begins digging under your fence, trying to make its way in and insist you also add it to your pack.
The job now becomes trying to contain the pitbulls, not doing the work you set out to do. But you evolve. You figure out how to take them on walks and feed them. How to train them and manage them. You pour concrete under the fence. You buy a forklift and an electric impact wrench. Maybe several.
However, this only makes them grow bigger and you find yourself trying to evolve again.
So now imagine you are out walking your three intact male pitbulls, barely under control, and a fourth unleashed pitbull shows up and she’s in heat. And there’s kids everywhere.
You have your hands full to say the least.
