Pervasively an issue<\/p>\n
\n
\n

Side hustling is such a common pattern, I made an #LABCS<\/a> for it: \u201cjobapreneur\u201d<\/p>\n

Live Action Business Case Study 3373, #LABCS3373<\/a> is \u201cJobapreneur.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

The biggest threat to \u201cbig tech\u201d in 2020. <\/p>\n
\n
\n

Every single millennial friend I know I has a side hustle that brings in revenue that they\u2019re trying to grow so that they can quit their \u201cbig tech\u201d job. <\/p>\n

Every single friend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I think the only way \u201cbig tech\u201d can actively combat this is to enable a flexible work from home policy. <\/p>\n
\n
\n

Turn your offices into collaboration, innovation, and meeting centers instead of open desk wastelands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The other side of the coin is this: most of my friends that are in \u201cbig tech\u201d are all actively searching for leadership positions at small\/midsize startups.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

And the last few bit of friends that are truly tired of it all have taken two paths:<\/p>\n
\n
\n

VC or \u201csabbatical via moving to a cheap country for 6-12 months\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/a>\u2066\u202a@rashiq\u202c\u2069<\/a> 99% of my tech friends live in NYC and SF. <\/p>\n
\n
\n

So there is an inherent advantage from their location. <\/p>\n

These are known startup centers. <\/p>\n

So the selection bias is mostly from that.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
