"For such a simple thing: depositions, motions, discovery, countersuit. And Acorn is not invested in it emotionally. Whereas the Acorn principals will never think of it other than at the end, you will obsess and your dreams will be monopolized. For them, depositions will be fun.

You won't collapse in deposition, but no matter that you might do well, you'll still be angry, frustrated, insulted, and your blood pressure will double."

- Design an organization for a brilliant team. Design one so even a mediocre team can do a brilliant job.
- Discuss a subordinate's job performance once a year. Discuss it once a month so there are no surprises at the end of the year.
- Expect people to speak up if they encounter a problem. Foster team values so those problems are prevented.

Foiled!
