You know you are in the first year of an internet start up company when:

I have been catching alot of heat from family and friends about how I am "lazy" and how I "don't work" and im "wasting my time." What these people don't see is the hard work, long hours, and sacrifices that go into building a web site that ranks in the top 1% of all web sites in the world. Ive found the best way to respond is with a joke and keeping a sense of humor. I compiled a list of some of my favorite one liners.

You know you are in the first year of an internet start up company when:

1) You pick up every can and bottle you find to return to the redemption center.
2) You search your state's division of lost property to find unclaimed money.
3) You work for $9.50 an hour to make your father rich.
4) You cook dinner in the microwave instead of going out.
5) You bring your date to the McDonalds drive thru because they have a dollar menu.
6) You work without pay.
7) If you had a dollar for every time you used the copy and paste function- you would be rich
8) You can't afford smokes to blacken your lungs.
9) You watch burnt DVD's instead of going out to the movies.
10) The most important girl in your life is Alexa!!!!!

Funny, sad, and SO true!
