When startups are encouraged to fail big, I'm pretty sure no one had in mind the recent troubles with Count Me In, the same company Small Person's soccer and baseball teams have used over the years to handle registrations. I'm just glad now that I did not end up working with them as I'd imagined a year ago that I would. Sometimes there does seem to be some grand design in the universe.
At the very least, it's one more reason to believe the adage, "it's better to be lucky than good."
For those impacted and those associated with the company who I know to be good people, I wish the best. I'm sure this isn't an easy situation, but hopefully it can all be resolved with a minimum amount of damage all the way around.
For the rest of us, I'm sure we're just glad to be clear of the blast zone.
What are the potential long-term consequences of today's decisions?
