I hope that you'll pay him. If you don't it will be an indication of lack of clues

But of course. I realize the use of "probably work for free" should not be taken literally. It does show that he(?) places value on other aspects of work rather than making a high salary performing joyless tasks

I have been in the fortunate position of being able to provide employment to others (and myself) in several companies. I don't exploit people, I offer wages as competitive as possible, I hire people from non-traditional backgrounds and mentor employees who probably would not get the attention of other large tech companies.

I am not a saint and admit I may be clueless about some things. Providing a workplace that is safe, free of discrimination, rewards people for hard work and supports those who are in need of help are areas I think I do have a clue about.

Hello -- I did just send an email. I would enjoy a relaxed discussion.
