I'm keen to hear who everybody is, and what their goals are
I assume you already know who I am. But if you don't I'm Tim. I worked for 8 years for big contractors on road, rail, renewable energy projects. I've always worked for head-contractors.
I recently worked for some smaller contractors as a consultant when I left my job doing estimating and contract management. It was good, but I found it hard to see a path to scale (other than just starting a contracting business myself)
So I instead decided to build software, and found that that's 100x harder than I thought and a very easy way to lose money
