2008 GFC, startup of 25 (15 dev), everyone drops to 4 days a week, the newly hired 'CEO' drops 5k on a top of the line laptop for himself to basically run Outlook and Solitaire after telling everyone they were cancelling 'birthday cakes' (which the staff mostly pitched in for anyway). RIP entire company.
