Project Dennis does not yet have a single finished peice of code, so it might be fair to say that we could be getting a little ahead of ourselves with the business plan development. However, we think it's very important to establish the DNA of the organisation at an early stage.
Therefore, in true new-age West Coast iconoclastic style we are devoting a large portion of our resources to establishing a top secret mountain brainstorming retreat, where future employees (and founders) can lollop around on beanbags in a non-stressful environment conducive to lateral thinking. Everyone will be encouraged to entrepreneuralize, ramble and ski, although not necessarily at the same time.
Our accountant tells us we probably won't run out of money for weeks.

I would like to apply for the non-stressful lolloping employment position. I am a fully qualified bus driver with literally threes of skills.
well when i say fully qualified i still don't have a timetable... or a route... or a bus. I can however make the noise of the air brakes.
Someone has to say ding-ding first though.
I look forward to your job offer.
Dear Mr Lazy,
Thank you for your application. At this time we are concerned that you may be over-qualified for any positions we currently have available.
(On the other hand if you can program ruby-on-rails and know something about database sharding, drop us line through the website ;-)
Yours sincerely,
ATIA Ltd.
I would like the name to be changed - I keep thinking 'Thatcher' and 'the Menace' ........
Tell you what... We'll consider changing the name if you promise to (finally) watch Monty Python's Holy Grail and can tell me which character it's named after ;-)
(and just saying "Dennis" doesn't count)
Business plans be damned - full speed ahead! (ps: tell your stickler accountant to be a little more creative ... the office needs more ping pong tables)
@tNb - Thanks for the voice of reason (and from someone who knows her onions, I believe). I think we can probably get a ping-pong table in between the bar billards table and the table-football table...
