    The Contrarian Creed

    These are the words we stand by, live by and define what it means to be a Contrarian.

    1. People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.
    2. Be a great f*cking human. Do what's right even when it hurts.
    3. How you do anything, is how you do everything.
    4. We do the dirty work.
    5. Your word is your contract.
    6. We are Archimedes, find your lever.
    7. Winners want pressure.
    8. We want your weird. Better weird than boring.
    9. Your job isn't done until THE job is done. We work the problem.
    10. Assumptions are for assholes. Find the truth.
    11. Less words, more meaning.
    12. Even our notes are worth stealing. Make every creation a mini-masterpiece.
    13. Show me your results, not your intentions.
