Software/web meat shops have bean around since the dawn of the time.

I worked at McDonald's in my teens. One of the best managers I ever worked for was the manager at this store at this time(the owner rotated him between stores to help get things on track).

I'll never forget this one thing he said: "They have changed the Filet-O-Fish five times since I've been here, and each time it's become more profitable".

Congrats on making slop more profitable.
