A painful humbling by Bev Doolittle
  • Investigation

If I’m being brutally honest with myself, holding my life up to a magnifying glass and stripping away all pride and ego, I figure I’ve been wrong twice in thirty-nine years.

The first happened in 2011, when I was broke, living in San Francisco. A friend of mine said she might have a video job for me and dragged me to a new building in a (then) rundown part of town called the Dogpatch, where I met with her boss Brian. This Brian was classy and cordial and told me all his video needs, and then when it came to pay he said he couldn’t give me very much, but he could offer me equity in his company. “I appreciate the offer,” I said, looking around at the twenty employees in the open space office, but my landlord wanted cash, not shares in something called “Airbnb.”
