[13:04]  maxbeizer:	hello world
[13:04]  jamison:	hello sir
[13:04]  jamison:	mr maxbeizer 
[13:04]  jamison:	we are discussing trying to get additional peoples into the bikeshed
[13:05]  jamison:	mr northrup is looking for work where he can join us
[13:05]  maxbeizer:	ah, yes, I've been meaning to respond to your email
[13:05]  jamison:	jeremy and wilkes are getting approval
[13:05]  maxbeizer:	sweet
[13:05]  jamison:	and stephenyeargin is about to sign
[13:05]  maxbeizer:	orly
[13:05]  maxbeizer:	wow
[13:05]  jamison:	we're working on getting additional space so the cost per head is not outrageous
[13:05]  jamison:	but, at the very least wanted to know if it's something you're even remotely interested
[13:05]  jamison:	(see what I did there)
[13:06]  jamison:	right now, it looks like we'd expand into two additional offices
[13:06]  maxbeizer:	I am interested. For me the issue is that is coming directly out of pocket
[13:06]  jamison:	maxbeizer: ok. so there is no heroku reimbursement?
[13:06]  maxbeizer:	Heroku explicitly does not subsidize coworking
[13:06]  jamison:	ack
[13:06]  jamison:	ok, so then, do you have a $$ that would be reasonable to you?
[13:06]  jeremy:	#salesforce
[13:06]  jamison:	if so, feel free to PM me
[13:06]  maxbeizer:	exactly
[13:06]  jamison:	rickbra is also out of pocket
[13:07]  jamison:	what we're looking to do
[13:07]  jamison:	it looks like jeremy, wilkes, and stephenyeargin will more than likely be able to get reimbursed
[13:07]  jamison:	so, we'll pass on savings to you and rickbra where we can
[13:07]  jamison:	I'm just trying to figure out what that is
[13:07]  maxbeizer:	I see
[13:07]  jamison:	maxbeizer: if we do this right, I'd like to own this entire office space by EOY
[13:07]  jamison:	"own"
[13:07]  jamison:	occupy
[13:08]  maxbeizer:	that'd really be something
[13:08]  jamison:	anyway, the only reason I'm pushing the issue
[13:08]  jamison:	is that I need to start either incorporating
[13:08]  jamison:	or telling people to gtf
[13:08]  jamison:	o
[13:08]  maxbeizer:	I see.
[13:09]  jamison:	of course, no pressure, I just wanted to even see if this was ballpark
[13:09]  jamison:	and if so, we can dig into details
[13:09]  maxbeizer:	jamison yeah, no pressure felt
[13:09]  jamison:	if not, well, you're always welcome
[13:09]  jamison:	just... not as often. 😉
[13:09]  maxbeizer:	heh
[13:09]  jamison:	anyway, data transimitted
[13:09]  jamison:	fin
[13:10]  maxbeizer:	IIRC current rent per person was around $400/person
[13:10]  jamison:	it's actually 500
[13:10]  maxbeizer:	that was redundant
[13:10]  jamison:	I'll extend that to anyone who can get reimbursed
[13:10]  jamison:	anyone else, we'll work with
[13:11]  jamison:	I *think* we can get the three offices along our wall for 3k
[13:11]  jamison:	that's what I'm targeting
[13:11]  jamison:	this is including our current space
[13:11]  maxbeizer:	yeah, for me realistically it would have be like half that to even be close to my budget 😞
[13:11]  maxbeizer:	which sucks
[13:12]  jamison:	$250?
[13:12]  maxbeizer:	but it's the reality of the situation I'm in
[13:12]  jamison:	$200?
[13:12]  maxbeizer:	yeah in that range
[13:12]  jamison:	ok.
[13:12]  jeremy:	maxbeizer: how’s your ZJ technique?
[13:12]  jamison:	maxbeizer: ok, so next question
[13:12]  maxbeizer:	jeremy up and coming
[13:12]  jamison:	I can get you at an agreeable rate
[13:12]  jeremy:	😃
[13:12]  jamison:	can you do a year?
[13:12]  maxbeizer:	yes
[13:13]  jamison:	k
[13:13]  jamison:	ok.
[13:13]  jamison:	so, data
[13:13]  jamison:	stephenyeargin: ideally, at least phil stays
[13:13]  jamison:	I don't mind byron
[13:13]  jamison:	but, I really just could use the extra HC
[13:13]  jamison:	😉
[13:13]  jeremy:	HC?
[13:13]  jamison:	head count
[13:13]  jeremy:	ah
[13:13]  stephenyeargin:	Phil answered that he wants to float in and out, but wants a desk at the new place. I'm going back and forth with them.
[13:14]  jamison:	k.
[13:14]  jamison:	alright. so, holding pattern
[13:14]  stephenyeargin:	Scott says he will sign checks for whatever is put in front of him for a year.
[13:14]  jamison:	rickbra: have you shared your ideal $$ with me?
[13:14]  jamison:	you can PM me
[13:14]  stephenyeargin:	He's tired of it being undecided 😝
[13:14]  jamison:	I'll start doing numbers
[13:14]  rickbra:	word
[13:14]  jamison:	stephenyeargin: excellent.
[13:15]  jamison:	then, have your friends make a call
[13:15]  jamison:	I don't want to go into Feb with this still hanging over
[13:15]  jamison:	stephenyeargin: I'm not going to bill scott for the time you all have been here
[13:15]  stephenyeargin:	He wants to pay you.
[13:15]  jamison:	sure
[13:16]  jamison:	but, I don't know how to back pay
[13:16]  stephenyeargin:	So you may get a check whether you want it or not. Deal with it.
[13:16]  stephenyeargin:	😉
[13:16]  jamison:	I can't take that $$
[13:16]  stephenyeargin:	Heh. He'll pay you in bitcoin
[13:16]  rickbra:	word
[13:16]  jamison:	Deal
[13:16]  jamison:	It'd be a donation anyway, and go into startup costs
[13:16]  jamison:	"donation"
[13:16]  jamison:	ah
[13:16]  jeremy:	“walkin’ around money"
[13:16]  jamison:	call it a donation for a floating seat
[13:16]  stephenyeargin:	Call it an "application fee"
[13:16]  jamison:	yeah, app fee works
[13:17]  jeremy:	“blatant bribe"
[13:17]  jamison:	😉
[13:17]  stephenyeargin:	C'mon, we know how to fudge shit and not get cau--- wait, is this being recorded?
[13:17]  jamison:	ok.
[13:17]  jamison:	so, if anyone else knows of someone who wants in, please let me know
[13:17]  jamison:	I will do some calculations, and get back with everyone
[13:17]  jamison:	as soon as you get positive confirmation of intent, please lmk
[13:18]  jamison:	thank you all for your time
[13:18]  jamison:	❤
[13:20]  jameswhite:	no ceilincat, no log
[13:20]  jameswhite:	unless someone else is logging, which I can't stop
[13:20]  jamison:	not I
[13:20]  stephenyeargin:	"Parlor fees" is also a nice way of phrasing "donations"
[13:21]  jamison:	membership fees sounds right
[13:21] stephenyeargin	was a frat guy
[13:22]  horus_plex:	any idea of the per month cost for expansion?
[13:22]  stephenyeargin:	depends on the divisor, sounds like.
[13:22]  horus_plex:	what's the dividend?
[13:23]  horus_plex:	or is that based on how the bikeshed expands
[13:23]  horus_plex:	(which is based on participants)>
[13:23]  jamison:	horus_plex: it depends on your payment model
[13:24]  jamison:	if you have reimbursement
[13:24]  jamison:	you're gonna get a flat
[13:24]  jamison:	otherwise, for other members, we'll come up with an acceptable floor
[13:24]  jamison:	any excess funds go toward, in order:
[13:24]  jamison:	* maintenance
[13:24]  jamison:	* volunteer events
[13:24]  jamison:	* beer
[13:24]  horus_plex:	even if the point it too high for me, I'll be down for giving a donation
[13:24]  jameswhite:	* jelly bellys
[13:25]  rickbra:	!img parlor fees
