Incidentally, this highlights a psychological and cultural distinction I 
have always found interesting.

To one kind of person, the idea of singlehandedly "running 35 services" 
- or claiming to do so, anyway - is an admirable display of 
entrepreneurial finesse and ambition.  It flatters the ego, and suggests 
unusual multitasking and time management prowess.

To another kind of person, particularly one who is aware of the 
complexity and breadth of business process that go into the execution of 
even a single commercial-grade service (no matter how "agile" or whatnot 
its foundation), this statement amounts to writing "I'm a pathological 
amateur and everything I do is painfully half-assed at best."
