Time for you to leave the nest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They had no idea I had spent five years secretly building a cybersecurity startup with a partner. And they definitely didn\u2019t know the company had just been sold three hours earlier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFine,\u201d I said quietly. \u201cI\u2019ll get out of your way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An Uber pulled up.
