SF Founder's 18 Employees All Live in His 2-Bedroom, Working 6am-11pm, 7 Days a Week

stanleefounder shares a wild San Francisco startup story: a founder's 18 employees all live with him in his two-bedroom apartment, working 6am-11pm, 7 days a week, needing his permission for anything beyond work or sleep.
He also didn't want them dating outside the company, so he matched them internally — and since 80% are men, a few now have to be gay. Quoter eigenhector jokes that "sf" here probably means science fiction.
