Re: I'm surprised..

You seem to be assuming that this was atcually run like an actual company, i.e. CEO's, CFO's, a finance department, etc. etc.

Everything i read makes this sound like a garage operation - "Bob over there is IT, Tom is Sales, Jenny creates the flash website to get people in, Randy is customer support. And I'm the boss. I hold the purse strings. Cant trust any of these buggers with the codes, so we keep em offline on my laptop, no way a hacker can get in there! What do you mean, what happens if i die? Im only 30, geez. And what do you mean what if someone breaks in and steals my laptop? It's encrypted. And the Police around here a good at recovering stolen property. It's all fine...."
