I'm a drop out from school. All my technical skill are through asking stackoverflow.com. Not until I found hacker news, I got the best tools to use, have a community that supports the site. And overall, I never end the day without opening it.

Awesome. That is a good insight. I currently had scrap this project until a client needs on then. By the time I continue developing it I was lost and do another readings on where I left off.

I think monthly fee and checking the app would be good for right now. It seems that I'm going to where your story is saying. Having it sold and not knowing anything about it after months might bite me in the future.

Thanks for the advice.

I wrote a school system using ruby on rails 2 due to the upgrade on rails 3 syntax change. It was not able to migrate database and change code since I was 1 man team on the company. I asked the company for another to help me out with the migration or change because there are parts of the system that is memory hog. It was my first project and don't know much about memory consumption of the app. Until, we are consuming more cloud resource cause I don't know the bottle neck is.

All the employees are more on PHP than ruby. It was sold to 3 school and 6 years after. It's still in use. I'm out of the company and suggested to move it to PHP for the developers to easily manipulate and maintain the app.

I went out of the company due to increase in task/ duties that I can't handle them all (customer service/ programming/ server maintenance/ explaining to my boss that I need another ruby programmer to help me out)

It was 4 months ago. A company that I wish to see myself heading towards my dream (Vancouver, Canada). It was the first startup that I have entered. The team are all seniors and I applied to be a programmer. When I started, I found out that my 3 years experience in Ruby on Rails is not enough for me to match my seniors. So I started as a junior programmer. But I didn't start work as what the job that I applied to. First I was sent to work on customer service. Answered tickets, answer calls, learn the product, etc.

As I continue on the job I was changed to QA (Quality Assurance) I haven't question why I have change roles or responsibility. I remember that it was on the contract but I haven't signed it because they forgot to give it and even remind them of it repeatedly. Anyway, after sometime I go on errands checking on the devices that run the app, do some test then report.

I wasn't happy about what I was doing and the seniors are very busy programming. Although they offered to give me a mentor but it didn't happen. It was a pressure to learn programming at the same time when you were exhausted doing work for 12 hours 6 days a week. So I wasn't able to really focus on programming as I start to burn out due to the long work hours. Then after a while they found a person that is more suited in QA. Eventually, I was moved to data entry position. At that time I know that it's time to quit. Then, Monday morning they asked if when am I leaving.

I learned a lot at the startup and also how organized the developers take bugs, feature and enhancement. And then I started to do my startup. It's a challenge but because of my learning form the startup, I was able to get an idea to move from programmer to entrepreneur.
