Career Day Advice http://www.slideshare.net/gwertzman/career-day-advice

What to do when it all goes to hell http://www.slideshare.net/gwertzman/what-to-do-when-it-all-goes-to-hell

This presentation was also in part an attempt to make good on a promise to our angel investor to share all the lessons we learned setting up Escape Factory.]]>
