It was really a very small company when I started and it changed very rapidly during those first periods.

I could imagine, some number of years from now, starting my own company. But not yet. Not for a while.

I started out typing and filing and answering the phones for a little nine-person firm. And that nine-person firm gave me my chance to find my own way.

I would never suggest anyone to stay at a company more than six or seven years. We grow as individuals and the world is moving so fast. Typically, I'll always sell a piece of each of my companies along the way.

I worked for three years in a small IT firm in Chicago. I managed our client base, so I translated into human speak for our technicians. But our company was sold, and the atmosphere and the culture really changed, so I quit without having anything else lined up.

I got the same industry experience in five years that someone else might have had in 15.

Over the years, I've worked with just about everybody.

I've never, ever had a job that lasted for more than a few months.
