Fired from Tech. Founded for Pleasure. Forget the corporate fluff. Our founder was a Senior Manager at a soul-sucking tech monolith—the kind of place with kombucha on tap and personality on backorder. He was crushing it. Until he wasn’t.

It all went down during a night of questionable team-building and way too many picklebacks. A douchy coworker decided to stir the pot and do some NSFW toy shopping. Fueled by a boneheaded mix of booze and bravado, he did what any good manager would do: he made an executive decision. He grabbed the phone, picked a winner, and hit “Buy Now.”

The story was a legend. Everyone had a good laugh, the coworker loved it.

But legends die hard in cubicle land, especially when there’s a snake hiding in the next pod over. In a masterclass of corporate backstabbing, someone whispered in the coworkers ear, and the joke suddenly wasn’t funny anymore. HR, citing “bad optics,” decided it was a fireable offense. No exit interview, no “best of luck.” Just a box for his stuff and a crisp pink slip.

That slip wasn’t a badge of honor. It was a soul-crushing mark of epic failure. His friends didn’t help, relentlessly asking for years: “So, when are you starting that dildo of the month club?”

Then one day, he snapped. He looked at the joke that had defined his failure and made a decision. Fuck it. He was going all in.

It was time to pivot. Hard. Time to trade the soulless bureaucracy of corporate high tech, ditch the endless buzz of Software as a Service (SaaS), and reject the mindless hype around AI. He was going to create a new model with a different—and much more satisfying—kind of buzz. He was building DaaS. No, not Dildo as a Service. (Okay, maybe a little.) Our official model is Desire as a Service. And we’re focused on a much better AI: Automated Intimacy. Because after being fired, humiliated, and roasted endlessly by his friends, he realized something: the world doesn’t need more corporate jargon. The world needs more confidence, more boldness, more fun…and a little bit of his B.D.E. Big Dildo Energy. And that’s exactly what Pink Slip delivers.
