An outstanding offer from Fog Creek ensures that the first time they have to wake up at 8 a.m. and put on a suit for a high-pressure interview with Oracle - well, when the alarm goes off, there’s a good chance they’ll say to themselves, why the heck am I getting up when I already have an excellent job waiting for me at Fog Creek? My hope is they won’t even bother going to that interview.
