1

00:00:11,778 --> 00:00:12,078

Hello.

 

2

00:00:12,078 --> 00:00:12,779

Welcome to another

 

3

00:00:12,779 --> 00:00:13,847

episode of On the Floor

 

4

00:00:13,847 --> 00:00:14,714

with Wayne and Rob.

 

5

00:00:14,714 --> 00:00:16,883

I'm Wayne Highlander, director of sales,

 

6

00:00:16,883 --> 00:00:17,417

Bona Adhesives.

 

7

00:00:17,417 --> 00:00:25,692

And you are?

 

8

00:00:25,792 --> 00:00:27,394

How we doing, Rob?

 

9

00:00:27,394 --> 00:00:28,094

Pretty good.

 

10

00:00:28,094 --> 00:00:28,928

How's it going?

 

11

00:00:28,928 --> 00:00:31,064

Switched it up there a little bit,

 

12

00:00:31,064 --> 00:00:32,866

little bit.

 

13

00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:34,067

Looking at you, I got distracted.

 

14

00:00:34,067 --> 00:00:34,701

It looks like you live

 

15

00:00:34,701 --> 00:00:37,704

in a trailer home somewhere.

 

16

00:00:37,937 --> 00:00:39,639

What's.

 

17

00:00:39,639 --> 00:00:40,106

What's going on

 

18

00:00:40,106 --> 00:00:42,442

with that curtain that just like.

 

19

00:00:42,442 --> 00:00:44,844

Well, Chris is always saying,

 

20

00:00:44,844 --> 00:00:45,245

you know,

 

21

00:00:45,245 --> 00:00:47,947

Chris is the guy who does everything

 

22

00:00:47,947 --> 00:00:48,715

him and Eileen,

 

23

00:00:48,715 --> 00:00:51,251

and he's always saying, Hey, can you

 

24

00:00:51,251 --> 00:00:52,485

put up a curtain on that

 

25

00:00:52,485 --> 00:00:53,853

big sliding glass window?

 

26

00:00:53,853 --> 00:00:54,654

And I'm always like,

 

27

00:00:54,654 --> 00:00:56,322

No, I don't have one.

 

28

00:00:56,322 --> 00:01:00,060

So today I thought, great, I'll

 

29

00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,062

I'll throw this bathrobe up there.

 

30

00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:02,462

You know,

 

31

00:01:02,462 --> 00:01:03,596

I get some looks

 

32

00:01:03,596 --> 00:01:04,397

and everything we have

 

33

00:01:04,397 --> 00:01:05,999

for Christmas lights.

 

34

00:01:05,999 --> 00:01:08,535

It's time for me to go on a diet.

 

35

00:01:08,535 --> 00:01:11,738

Definitely time, because,

 

36

00:01:11,805 --> 00:01:13,273

yeah, that

 

37

00:01:13,273 --> 00:01:16,843

a bathrobe shouldn't be able to cover

 

38

00:01:16,943 --> 00:01:18,511

an entire wall.

 

39

00:01:18,511 --> 00:01:19,245

You know what I mean?

 

40

00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:20,513

Maybe a window.

 

41

00:01:20,513 --> 00:01:21,181

The whole curtain,

 

42

00:01:21,181 --> 00:01:23,183

the whole window and everything?

 

43

00:01:23,183 --> 00:01:30,490

Yeah.

 

44

00:01:30,557 --> 00:01:32,058

I love how you willy nilly through it.

 

45

00:01:32,058 --> 00:01:33,326

It like. I bet.

 

46

00:01:33,326 --> 00:01:34,828

I bet Pauline would be mortified

 

47

00:01:34,828 --> 00:01:37,030

if she saw what we see on the screen.

 

48

00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:38,264

That looks like your house

 

49

00:01:38,264 --> 00:01:39,966

with a curtain falling down.

 

50

00:01:39,966 --> 00:01:41,367

It's actually your bathrobe.

 

51

00:01:41,367 --> 00:01:42,802

It don't get much,

 

52

00:01:42,802 --> 00:01:46,739

much more redneck than that.

 

53

00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,509

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

 

54

00:01:49,509 --> 00:01:55,815

yeah.

 

55

00:01:55,915 --> 00:01:58,718

But I know what you mean about the robe.

 

56

00:01:58,718 --> 00:02:00,019

The robe situation.

 

57

00:02:00,019 --> 00:02:01,754

I was in a hotel last week.

 

58

00:02:01,754 --> 00:02:02,188

Now, you know,

 

59

00:02:02,188 --> 00:02:04,057

I've been eating pretty good

 

60

00:02:04,057 --> 00:02:05,091

the last few months.

 

61

00:02:05,091 --> 00:02:05,758

You know, I'm feeling

 

62

00:02:05,758 --> 00:02:06,926

pretty good about myself.

 

63

00:02:06,926 --> 00:02:07,827

You know,

 

64

00:02:07,827 --> 00:02:08,728

I get up in the morning,

 

65

00:02:08,728 --> 00:02:12,465

I look in the mirror, and I go, you know,

 

66

00:02:12,565 --> 00:02:13,366

the bar is low.

 

67

00:02:13,366 --> 00:02:15,401

Okay, So let's, you know,

 

68

00:02:15,401 --> 00:02:17,904

let's get that established.

 

69

00:02:17,904 --> 00:02:24,144

But I look at

 

70

00:02:24,210 --> 00:02:25,445

let's keep your fanny,

 

71

00:02:25,445 --> 00:02:29,149

let's keep your face,

 

72

00:02:29,249 --> 00:02:32,218

let's keep you.

 

73

00:02:32,218 --> 00:02:34,988

Yes,

 

74

00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:36,523

but I get used to a certain, you know,

 

75

00:02:36,523 --> 00:02:37,357

whatever look at.

 

76

00:02:37,357 --> 00:02:38,892

I'm thinking, okay, you're not too bad.

 

77

00:02:38,892 --> 00:02:39,359

You know, after

 

78

00:02:39,359 --> 00:02:40,727

I give myself a little bit of grace.

 

79

00:02:40,727 --> 00:02:42,629

I'm 63 now.

 

80

00:02:42,629 --> 00:02:45,932

And all in all, not too bad.

 

81

00:02:45,999 --> 00:02:48,034

I was in a hotel room in Las Vegas

 

82

00:02:48,034 --> 00:02:49,335

the last few days,

 

83

00:02:49,335 --> 00:02:50,904

and in that mirror,

 

84

00:02:50,904 --> 00:02:53,273

it was a whole different story.

 

85

00:02:53,273 --> 00:02:53,506

Yeah,

 

86

00:02:53,506 --> 00:02:54,440

I think some mirrors

 

87

00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,575

are just not friendly.

 

88

00:02:55,575 --> 00:02:56,576

You know what I mean?

 

89

00:02:56,576 --> 00:02:58,144

I don't know if it's the lighting.

 

90

00:02:58,144 --> 00:03:01,147

I don't know what it is, but I went like,

 

91

00:03:01,347 --> 00:03:03,049

What the hell?

 

92

00:03:03,049 --> 00:03:04,684

So, yeah,

 

93

00:03:04,684 --> 00:03:05,852

I totally get where

 

94

00:03:05,852 --> 00:03:09,789

you're coming from, man.

 

95

00:03:09,889 --> 00:03:11,991

to do to get you a special mirror?

 

96

00:03:11,991 --> 00:03:15,195

But maybe she did to be kind.

 

97

00:03:15,295 --> 00:03:16,362

Yeah, maybe that's.

 

98

00:03:16,362 --> 00:03:18,698

Well, we'll never lose that mirror at

 

99

00:03:18,698 --> 00:03:20,400

after the mirror I came back from.

 

100

00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,167

I was able to get home

 

101

00:03:21,167 --> 00:03:24,070

to look at this beer.

 

102

00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:29,976

Like I said, the bar is low.

 

103

00:03:30,043 --> 00:03:33,780

Yes, wasn't it was busy this year.

 

104

00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:34,681

There's a lot of people there

 

105

00:03:34,681 --> 00:03:35,682

in their fancy suits

 

106

00:03:35,682 --> 00:03:37,150

and their fancy briefcases

 

107

00:03:37,150 --> 00:03:38,751

and their fancy leather,

 

108

00:03:38,751 --> 00:03:40,453

leather satchels and shoes

 

109

00:03:40,453 --> 00:03:41,087

and everything

 

110

00:03:41,087 --> 00:03:45,458

and all these big deals being brokered in

 

111

00:03:45,525 --> 00:03:47,060

all the big players come in.

 

112

00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:49,162

And

 

113

00:03:49,162 --> 00:03:51,264

I said it last year when I came back,

 

114

00:03:51,264 --> 00:03:52,765

and I always

 

115

00:03:52,765 --> 00:03:55,735

I always think without the floor guy

 

116

00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:57,737

doing the floors or the floor girl,

 

117

00:03:57,737 --> 00:03:59,239

none of this matters.

 

118

00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:00,907

None of these deals matter. None.

 

119

00:04:00,907 --> 00:04:02,275

These products matter

 

120

00:04:02,275 --> 00:04:02,976

without the floor

 

121

00:04:02,976 --> 00:04:07,447

craftsmen doing the work,

 

122

00:04:07,513 --> 00:04:08,681

never take for

 

123

00:04:08,681 --> 00:04:13,519

granted your skills

 

124

00:04:13,620 --> 00:04:14,721

because it's

 

125

00:04:14,721 --> 00:04:16,222

a big, big, big deal

 

126

00:04:16,222 --> 00:04:18,758

when you learn decades,

 

127

00:04:18,758 --> 00:04:21,628

decades of of craftsmanship, stuff,

 

128

00:04:21,628 --> 00:04:22,295

how to do things

 

129

00:04:22,295 --> 00:04:23,129

that make things work

 

130

00:04:23,129 --> 00:04:24,664

and make things work that are not right

 

131

00:04:24,664 --> 00:04:26,532

and make things come together

 

132

00:04:26,532 --> 00:04:29,168

and meet expectations and everything

 

133

00:04:29,168 --> 00:04:30,670

and never take for granted those skills.

 

134

00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:32,639

Sometimes that's all you got left.

 

135

00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:34,507

And when these guys

 

136

00:04:34,507 --> 00:04:35,675

are doing all these deals

 

137

00:04:35,675 --> 00:04:37,677

and everything and walking around there,

 

138

00:04:37,677 --> 00:04:38,711

I just keep

 

139

00:04:38,711 --> 00:04:40,446

it always strikes me that

 

140

00:04:40,446 --> 00:04:41,814

none of this stuff matters.

 

141

00:04:41,814 --> 00:04:42,949

None of this big building,

 

142

00:04:42,949 --> 00:04:45,051

the all these different products in here,

 

143

00:04:45,051 --> 00:04:45,985

none of it matters

 

144

00:04:45,985 --> 00:04:47,820

without the floor, man.

 

145

00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:49,689

So

 

146

00:04:49,689 --> 00:04:52,425

yep, yep.

 

147

00:04:52,425 --> 00:04:53,993

All ready.

 

148

00:04:53,993 --> 00:04:55,528

I thought we would talk about, you know,

 

149

00:04:55,528 --> 00:04:58,531

we get almost. But this is another PSA,

 

150

00:04:58,598 --> 00:05:02,035

you know, in our in our

 

151

00:05:02,101 --> 00:05:04,103

ventures looking out after the floor.

 

152

00:05:04,103 --> 00:05:06,873

The floor Man

 

153

00:05:06,873 --> 00:05:09,642

about becoming a workaholic.

 

154

00:05:09,642 --> 00:05:13,479

Now, it's interesting to me because

 

155

00:05:13,579 --> 00:05:16,115

we probably all have friends

 

156

00:05:16,115 --> 00:05:18,351

that are not in the floor trade

 

157

00:05:18,351 --> 00:05:21,387

that don't work nearly as hard

 

158

00:05:21,387 --> 00:05:25,491

in as many hours as we do right.

 

159

00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:28,394

And

 

160

00:05:28,394 --> 00:05:30,029

it's easy to become

 

161

00:05:30,029 --> 00:05:31,030

a workaholic

 

162

00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:33,299

when you own your own business.

 

163

00:05:33,299 --> 00:05:34,600

You kind of get sucked into that

 

164

00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,704

sometimes because you know it.

 

165

00:05:37,737 --> 00:05:38,338

You you work,

 

166

00:05:38,338 --> 00:05:40,106

you've got to get the job done.

 

167

00:05:40,106 --> 00:05:42,342

There's no you don't ever set like,

 

168

00:05:42,342 --> 00:05:43,643

we only work. Sorry, we don't work.

 

169

00:05:43,643 --> 00:05:44,877

Saturdays, Sunday, sorry,

 

170

00:05:44,877 --> 00:05:47,046

we only work 8 to 5.

 

171

00:05:47,046 --> 00:05:48,448

I mean, a lot of guys can do that.

 

172

00:05:48,448 --> 00:05:51,451

I had not mastered that.

 

173

00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:52,785

And so we work to like,

 

174

00:05:52,785 --> 00:05:53,019

you know,

 

175

00:05:53,019 --> 00:05:53,953

we like you said

 

176

00:05:53,953 --> 00:05:56,956

before many times that, you know, you're

 

177

00:05:57,023 --> 00:05:58,524

you work until the job is done.

 

178

00:05:58,524 --> 00:05:58,958

You get

 

179

00:05:58,958 --> 00:06:00,727

you got to go till you get it stained.

 

180

00:06:00,727 --> 00:06:01,427

You got to go with you.

 

181

00:06:01,427 --> 00:06:02,362

You get the first coat on

 

182

00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:03,863

because you got a schedule.

 

183

00:06:03,863 --> 00:06:06,699

And then when you come home,

 

184

00:06:06,799 --> 00:06:08,534

all your friends are floor guys.

 

185

00:06:08,534 --> 00:06:10,770

So you're still talking about floors.

 

186

00:06:10,770 --> 00:06:12,839

You look on social media.

 

187

00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:13,239

I mean,

 

188

00:06:13,239 --> 00:06:13,573

you guys,

 

189

00:06:13,573 --> 00:06:16,075

social media is all flooring stuff.

 

190

00:06:16,075 --> 00:06:17,977

And, you know,

 

191

00:06:17,977 --> 00:06:20,380

it becomes all encompassing.

 

192

00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:23,383

So I think it's easy to become like,

 

193

00:06:23,483 --> 00:06:26,119

you know, a workaholic almost.

 

194

00:06:26,119 --> 00:06:28,287

So, you know,

 

195

00:06:28,287 --> 00:06:30,423

also we always say, you know,

 

196

00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:31,257

we've always heard,

 

197

00:06:31,257 --> 00:06:33,192

yeah, work hard, play hard.

 

198

00:06:33,192 --> 00:06:33,960

And it seems like

 

199

00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,030

a, you know, a harmless and funny phrase

 

200

00:06:38,097 --> 00:06:39,432

and almost like a badge of honor

 

201

00:06:39,432 --> 00:06:41,601

for for a lot of people,

 

202

00:06:41,601 --> 00:06:42,902

you know, who wouldn't want to work

 

203

00:06:42,902 --> 00:06:44,137

hard and achieve success

 

204

00:06:44,137 --> 00:06:45,705

and that kind of stuff.

 

205

00:06:45,705 --> 00:06:47,673

But

 

206

00:06:47,673 --> 00:06:49,342

it kind of

 

207

00:06:49,342 --> 00:06:52,779

that phrase kind of encourages a

 

208

00:06:52,879 --> 00:06:54,680

workaholic mindset.

 

209

00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,215

And it's almost like

 

210

00:06:56,215 --> 00:06:58,284

it's a positive connotation.

 

211

00:06:58,284 --> 00:07:02,789

So I thought we'd talk about that.

 

212

00:07:02,855 --> 00:07:05,591

Go ahead.

 

213

00:07:05,591 --> 00:07:09,629

Well,

 

214

00:07:09,729 --> 00:07:12,298

that's tough, man, because.

 

215

00:07:12,298 --> 00:07:18,104

Because I think,

 

216

00:07:18,204 --> 00:07:18,971

well, okay,

 

217

00:07:18,971 --> 00:07:19,739

so that brings up

 

218

00:07:19,739 --> 00:07:20,773

something that's interesting.

 

219

00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:22,074

You said that

 

220

00:07:22,074 --> 00:07:23,242

because

 

221

00:07:23,242 --> 00:07:24,110

I think a lot of people

 

222

00:07:24,110 --> 00:07:25,478

would say that about me.

 

223

00:07:25,478 --> 00:07:26,245

I've certainly had

 

224

00:07:26,245 --> 00:07:27,847

friends say that about me,

 

225

00:07:27,847 --> 00:07:29,515

that, no, that's all he does is work.

 

226

00:07:29,515 --> 00:07:31,350

And I've had friends say that you.

 

227

00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:32,218

You work to live.

 

228

00:07:32,218 --> 00:07:34,086

I live no, I live to work.

 

229

00:07:34,086 --> 00:07:35,955

And they lived, they worked.

 

230

00:07:35,955 --> 00:07:37,757

Deliver some crap like I can remember.

 

231

00:07:37,757 --> 00:07:40,693

Yeah.

 

232

00:07:40,693 --> 00:07:43,696

But rise the stat rising yeah, yeah,

 

233

00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:44,497

I was too busy.

 

234

00:07:44,497 --> 00:07:46,466

Too busy working to hear the rest of it.

 

235

00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:49,035

I think.

 

236

00:07:49,035 --> 00:07:49,869

Yeah, yeah.

 

237

00:07:49,869 --> 00:07:51,838

Some people work to live.

 

238

00:07:51,838 --> 00:07:54,807

Some people live to work.

 

239

00:07:54,807 --> 00:07:55,808

Yeah.

 

240

00:07:55,808 --> 00:07:58,010

And so I've been accused of that

 

241

00:07:58,010 --> 00:08:00,379

and I think that it would almost be

 

242

00:08:00,379 --> 00:08:05,017

a fair thing to say about me.

 

243

00:08:05,117 --> 00:08:07,019

And

 

244

00:08:07,019 --> 00:08:08,788

I think also I part of

 

245

00:08:08,788 --> 00:08:10,690

that was to me like,

 

246

00:08:10,690 --> 00:08:12,391

okay, yeah, it's almost a badge of honor.

 

247

00:08:12,391 --> 00:08:13,626

You're not afraid to work,

 

248

00:08:13,626 --> 00:08:14,093

you'll work,

 

249

00:08:14,093 --> 00:08:14,760

you'll do whatever it takes

 

250

00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,095

to get the job done.

 

251

00:08:16,095 --> 00:08:19,332

And I you know, I grew up with a

 

252

00:08:19,432 --> 00:08:20,399

I've always worked hard

 

253

00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:21,200

and that was just, you know,

 

254

00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,970

I mean, that was we, the guys respected.

 

255

00:08:23,970 --> 00:08:29,175

We're hard working guys, right?

 

256

00:08:29,275 --> 00:08:30,910

But,

 

257

00:08:30,910 --> 00:08:32,445

you know, I mean, I guess

 

258

00:08:32,445 --> 00:08:33,846

so that answers your question.

 

259

00:08:33,846 --> 00:08:35,615

But but no, but here's something else.

 

260

00:08:35,615 --> 00:08:37,717

You said.

 

261

00:08:37,717 --> 00:08:39,185

I think I'm that way about everything

 

262

00:08:39,185 --> 00:08:42,021

I do, though. I'm.

 

263

00:08:42,021 --> 00:08:42,388

Yeah.

 

264

00:08:42,388 --> 00:08:46,626

So like fishing.

 

265

00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:52,398

Yes.

 

266

00:08:52,498 --> 00:08:53,165

Yeah.

 

267

00:08:53,165 --> 00:08:54,667

I mean, you just

 

268

00:08:54,667 --> 00:08:57,670

you seem to have that kind of personality

 

269

00:08:57,703 --> 00:09:01,007

So I wonder if.

 

270

00:09:01,107 --> 00:09:02,508

Yeah.

 

271

00:09:02,508 --> 00:09:04,810

I won't. Yes.

 

272

00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:06,612

I wonder if there's a fine line

 

273

00:09:06,612 --> 00:09:08,714

between passion

 

274

00:09:08,714 --> 00:09:11,450

and that phrase workaholic

 

275

00:09:11,450 --> 00:09:14,020

because when I finish the

 

276

00:09:14,020 --> 00:09:14,954

I'll be the first guy

 

277

00:09:14,954 --> 00:09:16,055

up every day fishing.

 

278

00:09:16,055 --> 00:09:18,758

I will fish till the sun goes down. Fish.

 

279

00:09:18,758 --> 00:09:21,060

Almost nobody will fish as many hours

 

280

00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:21,928

as I will.

 

281

00:09:21,928 --> 00:09:22,828

I don't know why.

 

282

00:09:22,828 --> 00:09:24,630

I just. That's why I'm driven.

 

283

00:09:24,630 --> 00:09:25,765

When I used to lift weights

 

284

00:09:25,765 --> 00:09:28,901

and I know that is a long time ago.

 

285

00:09:28,901 --> 00:09:32,038

I know

 

286

00:09:32,104 --> 00:09:32,805

I would.

 

287

00:09:32,805 --> 00:09:35,241

I would would never be satisfied in work,

 

288

00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:35,641

you know?

 

289

00:09:35,641 --> 00:09:36,576

I mean, to be in a gym

 

290

00:09:36,576 --> 00:09:38,511

all the time, whatever.

 

291

00:09:38,511 --> 00:09:40,379

I just think that's my approach to life.

 

292

00:09:40,379 --> 00:09:40,980

I think there's

 

293

00:09:40,980 --> 00:09:42,748

probably some deep seated reasons behind

 

294

00:09:42,748 --> 00:09:44,717

that I don't want to know about.

 

295

00:09:44,717 --> 00:09:49,355

But but

 

296

00:09:49,422 --> 00:09:52,191

yeah, I did.

 

297

00:09:52,191 --> 00:09:53,492

And I was in line.

 

298

00:09:53,492 --> 00:09:55,261

seeded stuff there.

 

299

00:09:55,261 --> 00:09:56,262

I wasn't like in the way

 

300

00:09:56,262 --> 00:09:57,697

that was article was going.

 

301

00:09:57,697 --> 00:09:59,832

the bat, when I started to read that,

 

302

00:09:59,832 --> 00:10:03,035

I just started chuckling like, all right,

 

303

00:10:03,102 --> 00:10:05,371

that this is perfect for

 

304

00:10:05,371 --> 00:10:08,708

because they said, Are you a workaholic

 

305

00:10:08,908 --> 00:10:13,012

or are you highly engaged in your job?

 

306

00:10:13,079 --> 00:10:22,321

And

 

307

00:10:22,388 --> 00:10:25,958

Yeah, I think you're more

 

308

00:10:26,025 --> 00:10:28,961

than highly engaged.

 

309

00:10:28,961 --> 00:10:30,930

yeah, probably so.

 

310

00:10:30,930 --> 00:10:31,897

I don't know man.

 

311

00:10:31,897 --> 00:10:32,632

I think there's a,

 

312

00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:34,967

there's a big part of me

 

313

00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:35,868

that just wants to win.

 

314

00:10:35,868 --> 00:10:39,171

I want to be the best at whatever I do,

 

315

00:10:39,238 --> 00:10:42,241

and I think that's tied into it too.

 

316

00:10:42,274 --> 00:10:43,342

And I'm not saying it's healthy,

 

317

00:10:43,342 --> 00:10:44,677

I'm not believing on that bragging

 

318

00:10:44,677 --> 00:10:45,945

and I'm not saying it's healthy.

 

319

00:10:45,945 --> 00:10:48,447

I'm saying it is.

 

320

00:10:48,447 --> 00:10:50,316

It is what it is mean.

 

321

00:10:50,316 --> 00:10:52,418

And

 

322

00:10:52,418 --> 00:10:54,053

and but here's the way I look at to

 

323

00:10:54,053 --> 00:10:55,087

what I

 

324

00:10:55,087 --> 00:10:55,855

what I turn around

 

325

00:10:55,855 --> 00:10:57,590

and do it any other way.

 

326

00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:59,125

And I don't think so.

 

327

00:10:59,125 --> 00:11:00,660

I'm not complaining.

 

328

00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:02,395

You know what I mean? I'm I'm okay.

 

329

00:11:02,395 --> 00:11:03,129

You know, my other people.

 

330

00:11:03,129 --> 00:11:04,630

I mean, I like it.

 

331

00:11:04,630 --> 00:11:07,199

I mean, but that's just waited.

 

332

00:11:07,199 --> 00:11:08,868

And I like some people say

 

333

00:11:08,868 --> 00:11:10,269

and I've seen this before,

 

334

00:11:10,269 --> 00:11:11,270

when a guy dies

 

335

00:11:11,270 --> 00:11:12,672

and he's like 70 years old

 

336

00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:14,640

and the guy goes, may never be tired.

 

337

00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,275

He works, he works his entire life.

 

338

00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:16,776

Poor guy.

 

339

00:11:16,776 --> 00:11:17,977

He never got to

 

340

00:11:17,977 --> 00:11:20,579

you know, he never he just worked.

 

341

00:11:20,579 --> 00:11:22,348

Well, that's okay.

 

342

00:11:22,348 --> 00:11:23,449

Maybe that's what the guy wanted.

 

343

00:11:23,449 --> 00:11:25,184

Maybe he was happy working.

 

344

00:11:25,184 --> 00:11:27,987

I maybe he liked what he was doing.

 

345

00:11:27,987 --> 00:11:29,188

There's still,

 

346

00:11:29,188 --> 00:11:30,289

you know, there's people out there

 

347

00:11:30,289 --> 00:11:32,158

that that love what they do.

 

348

00:11:32,158 --> 00:11:34,694

Yeah, so.

 

349

00:11:34,694 --> 00:11:35,928

but I do think there's

 

350

00:11:35,928 --> 00:11:38,564

this other thing that drives me.

 

351

00:11:38,664 --> 00:11:39,799

I have this reoccurring

 

352

00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:41,667

nightmare in my head. Okay?

 

353

00:11:41,667 --> 00:11:42,068

And here's.

 

354

00:11:42,068 --> 00:11:45,071

Here's what it is.

 

355

00:11:45,204 --> 00:11:46,505

Okay?

 

356

00:11:46,505 --> 00:11:48,207

Something happens to Judy.

 

357

00:11:48,207 --> 00:11:50,042

She dies somehow. God forbid.

 

358

00:11:50,042 --> 00:11:50,476

Okay?

 

359

00:11:50,476 --> 00:11:53,045

Somehow she's gone. Okay?

 

360

00:11:53,045 --> 00:11:56,048

Somehow I remarry, okay?

 

361

00:11:56,115 --> 00:11:58,084

And I remarry a girl that's, like,

 

362

00:11:58,084 --> 00:11:59,018

half my age.

 

363

00:11:59,018 --> 00:12:00,186

Okay?

 

364

00:12:00,186 --> 00:12:04,390

She's 31.

 

365

00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:05,124

I'm telling you,

 

366

00:12:05,124 --> 00:12:06,258

this is how the dream is going.

 

367

00:12:06,258 --> 00:12:11,630

Okay, I'm sorry, I know, but.

 

368

00:12:11,697 --> 00:12:14,266

Yes, but it's not as good as it sounds.

 

369

00:12:14,266 --> 00:12:16,635

Okay, Because.

 

370

00:12:16,635 --> 00:12:18,070

lot,

 

371

00:12:18,070 --> 00:12:18,471

you know,

 

372

00:12:18,471 --> 00:12:19,538

lots of 30 year

 

373

00:12:19,538 --> 00:12:22,541

olds out there, you know, Yeah,

 

374

00:12:22,575 --> 00:12:26,345

I picture her.

 

375

00:12:26,412 --> 00:12:30,249

You look losers.

 

376

00:12:30,349 --> 00:12:32,318

No, I picture she's,

 

377

00:12:32,318 --> 00:12:34,019

like, 38 years old in my dream.

 

378

00:12:34,019 --> 00:12:35,888

Okay?

 

379

00:12:35,888 --> 00:12:39,692

And she is an absolute wreck.

 

380

00:12:39,792 --> 00:12:44,296

I mean, a horrible human being.

 

381

00:12:44,396 --> 00:12:45,498

You find her in the gutter

 

382

00:12:45,498 --> 00:12:46,766

and that's in her hair.

 

383

00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,300

No, not in the gutter.

 

384

00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:49,668

Not in the gutter.

 

385

00:12:49,668 --> 00:12:52,037

She lives in a beat up trailer home.

 

386

00:12:52,037 --> 00:12:55,608

Okay? Okay? She's got red hair.

 

387

00:12:55,708 --> 00:12:57,943

All right?

 

388

00:12:57,943 --> 00:12:59,812

I'm not making this up.

 

389

00:12:59,812 --> 00:13:01,781

She's got two kids

 

390

00:13:01,781 --> 00:13:03,983

who are equally as messed up as her.

 

391

00:13:03,983 --> 00:13:06,752

I mean, just horrible, rotten kids,

 

392

00:13:06,752 --> 00:13:08,187

you know, like 15 years

 

393

00:13:08,187 --> 00:13:09,321

old, just miserable,

 

394

00:13:09,321 --> 00:13:11,457

rotten, big kids, dirty.

 

395

00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:12,858

And I pitch them dirty

 

396

00:13:12,858 --> 00:13:14,026

like the house is always dirty.

 

397

00:13:14,026 --> 00:13:14,827

Right Yeah,

 

398

00:13:14,827 --> 00:13:17,797

yeah, now, that's not the worst of it.

 

399

00:13:17,797 --> 00:13:20,166

The worst of it is this

 

400

00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:21,600

one day when we're arguing,

 

401

00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,135

she says to me,

 

402

00:13:23,135 --> 00:13:23,936

and we're living

 

403

00:13:23,936 --> 00:13:24,937

somewhere out in the country,

 

404

00:13:24,937 --> 00:13:26,038

okay, Like out in the country,

 

405

00:13:26,038 --> 00:13:26,772

in Tennessee, right

 

406

00:13:26,772 --> 00:13:27,406

here, like way out

 

407

00:13:27,406 --> 00:13:29,008

in the sticks somewhere.

 

408

00:13:29,008 --> 00:13:32,011

And the worst of it is, she says to me,

 

409

00:13:32,011 --> 00:13:34,046

she screams at me one day,

 

410

00:13:34,046 --> 00:13:35,147

what happened to all that

 

411

00:13:35,147 --> 00:13:44,723

California money?

 

412

00:13:44,790 --> 00:13:46,392

That's the nightmare.

 

413

00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:47,560

And I've had it.

 

414

00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:49,829

I've I mean, it must have eight

 

415

00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:52,464

times I've thought about this

 

416

00:13:52,531 --> 00:13:53,199

and that's

 

417

00:13:53,199 --> 00:13:57,069

that's also what I think motivates me.

 

418

00:13:57,169 --> 00:14:00,506

So.

 

419

00:14:00,573 --> 00:14:01,540

All right,

 

420

00:14:01,540 --> 00:14:02,107

I'm not sure

 

421

00:14:02,107 --> 00:14:20,793

I know what to say right now, I get

 

422

00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:25,898

Yes, Yes,

 

423

00:14:25,998 --> 00:14:27,299

yes.

 

424

00:14:27,299 --> 00:14:29,168

To be successful and to work hard.

 

425

00:14:29,168 --> 00:14:44,016

Yes,

 

426

00:14:44,083 --> 00:14:45,050

I.

 

427

00:14:45,050 --> 00:14:46,552

I know.

 

428

00:14:46,552 --> 00:14:48,387

Horrible. Horrible. I work.

 

429

00:14:48,387 --> 00:14:49,321

No, no, no.

 

430

00:14:49,321 --> 00:14:50,489

I would never want that to happen.

 

431

00:14:50,489 --> 00:14:52,658

But in order for this for this dream

 

432

00:14:52,658 --> 00:14:54,460

that dream to take place,

 

433

00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:56,795

she has to be gone somehow.

 

434

00:14:56,795 --> 00:14:58,030

And I just figured, okay, well,

 

435

00:14:58,030 --> 00:15:01,033

she was a died or something, God forbid.

 

436

00:15:01,233 --> 00:15:02,368

And I guess

 

437

00:15:02,368 --> 00:15:04,169

it's an all or nothing with me,

 

438

00:15:04,169 --> 00:15:05,738

you know what I mean? I guess it is.

 

439

00:15:05,738 --> 00:15:08,073

You have this success,

 

440

00:15:08,073 --> 00:15:11,043

and if not for that, it's this, you know,

 

441

00:15:11,043 --> 00:15:15,114

and I don't know why.

 

442

00:15:15,180 --> 00:15:19,118

just ending and a complete different way.

 

443

00:15:19,118 --> 00:15:21,720

Like you come in, like there,

 

444

00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:22,655

there, white knight

 

445

00:15:22,655 --> 00:15:24,089

there, knight in shining armor.

 

446

00:15:24,089 --> 00:15:26,258

You know, the white horse.

 

447

00:15:26,358 --> 00:15:40,773

I think

 

448

00:15:40,839 --> 00:15:43,909

yes, there's no there's no fixing.

 

449

00:15:43,943 --> 00:15:44,743

There's there's

 

450

00:15:44,743 --> 00:15:46,412

no fixing these people, Rob,

 

451

00:15:46,412 --> 00:15:48,447

you don't see in my head what the wreck

 

452

00:15:48,447 --> 00:15:49,982

that is in that trailer home.

 

453

00:15:49,982 --> 00:15:52,117

And then we the way

 

454

00:15:52,117 --> 00:15:53,652

the way we have to live.

 

455

00:15:53,652 --> 00:15:54,920

Yeah.

 

456

00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,122

yeah.

 

457

00:15:57,122 --> 00:15:59,525

So

 

458

00:15:59,525 --> 00:16:01,126

reasons for being an alcoholic

 

459

00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:02,161

workaholic.

 

460

00:16:02,161 --> 00:16:06,699

I've got.

 

461

00:16:06,765 --> 00:16:08,334

I was wondering

 

462

00:16:08,334 --> 00:16:10,102

who was going to be the first one

 

463

00:16:10,102 --> 00:16:12,938

to slip with Yes. Yes.

 

464

00:16:12,938 --> 00:16:17,142

You know, I think also,

 

465

00:16:17,242 --> 00:16:19,845

I think you the way the way that this

 

466

00:16:19,845 --> 00:16:21,780

sometimes happens with people

 

467

00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:24,249

is you get addicted to the grind

 

468

00:16:24,249 --> 00:16:25,951

and you get addicted to the adrenaline

 

469

00:16:25,951 --> 00:16:27,086

of getting the jobs done

 

470

00:16:27,086 --> 00:16:28,287

and starting another job.

 

471

00:16:28,287 --> 00:16:31,557

And the highs of of, you know, this chaos

 

472

00:16:31,557 --> 00:16:33,659

almost every day getting up

 

473

00:16:33,659 --> 00:16:35,127

and doing is getting you drunk and hammer

 

474

00:16:35,127 --> 00:16:35,728

and doing this job.

 

475

00:16:35,728 --> 00:16:37,062

Maybe I think

 

476

00:16:37,062 --> 00:16:37,629

almost it

 

477

00:16:37,629 --> 00:16:39,531

becomes like an addictive thing,

 

478

00:16:39,531 --> 00:16:42,534

like an adrenaline thing. And

 

479

00:16:42,601 --> 00:16:44,003

I think that's to be part of it.

 

480

00:16:44,003 --> 00:16:47,006

Also, I think some people

 

481

00:16:47,139 --> 00:16:48,374

have not

 

482

00:16:48,374 --> 00:16:50,876

figured out how to say no.

 

483

00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:52,845

And I think that's part of the problem

 

484

00:16:52,845 --> 00:16:53,545

that leads to it.

 

485

00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:56,548

Like it's habit, like anything else.

 

486

00:16:56,582 --> 00:16:59,418

And it's tough to say, no,

 

487

00:16:59,418 --> 00:17:00,586

I can't do this job

 

488

00:17:00,586 --> 00:17:01,153

because whatever

 

489

00:17:01,153 --> 00:17:02,054

I know, nope, I'm

 

490

00:17:02,054 --> 00:17:03,255

going to take a vacation this week

 

491

00:17:03,255 --> 00:17:05,524

and I'm just going to say no.

 

492

00:17:05,524 --> 00:17:06,291

And a lot of people

 

493

00:17:06,291 --> 00:17:08,861

just not learned that skill or trade

 

494

00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:12,531

or whatever that is.

 

495

00:17:12,598 --> 00:17:14,400

I think I was guilty of that, too.

 

496

00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,801

I think I was like, All right,

 

497

00:17:15,801 --> 00:17:16,835

I got to get the job

 

498

00:17:16,835 --> 00:17:18,170

or maybe someone else to get the job.

 

499

00:17:18,170 --> 00:17:18,604

I will never

 

500

00:17:18,604 --> 00:17:20,606

I won't get a job with this guy again.

 

501

00:17:20,606 --> 00:17:22,074

And I think that was part of it.

 

502

00:17:22,074 --> 00:17:23,142

I marvel at people

 

503

00:17:23,142 --> 00:17:24,343

that that have been able

 

504

00:17:24,343 --> 00:17:26,078

to treat it like a job.

 

505

00:17:26,078 --> 00:17:28,580

I mean, I remember talking to a flirt.

 

506

00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:30,315

He's I think he sold his business.

 

507

00:17:30,315 --> 00:17:31,884

He's not in the business anymore.

 

508

00:17:31,884 --> 00:17:33,952

But he was very successful

 

509

00:17:33,952 --> 00:17:36,255

and probably ten crews out there

 

510

00:17:36,255 --> 00:17:38,023

and he goes, Wayne, it's just floors.

 

511

00:17:38,023 --> 00:17:38,891

It's just, you know,

 

512

00:17:38,891 --> 00:17:40,659

because he got a callback in the job

 

513

00:17:40,659 --> 00:17:42,361

and it was legit call from there.

 

514

00:17:42,361 --> 00:17:44,897

And music is just floors

 

515

00:17:44,897 --> 00:17:45,964

and not that big a deal

 

516

00:17:45,964 --> 00:17:47,833

whatever is not life and death

 

517

00:17:47,833 --> 00:17:49,034

and we'll get to it Monday.

 

518

00:17:49,034 --> 00:17:50,035

We're not working this weekend

 

519

00:17:50,035 --> 00:17:52,471

and whatever and I admire that.

 

520

00:17:52,471 --> 00:17:54,106

I really do admire that.

 

521

00:17:54,106 --> 00:17:55,808

But that just wasn't me.

 

522

00:17:55,808 --> 00:17:58,944

a that's a shocker. I mean, because

 

523

00:17:59,011 --> 00:18:00,512

just about every floor guy

 

524

00:18:00,512 --> 00:18:02,314

I know is not that way.

 

525

00:18:02,314 --> 00:18:08,220

Yeah, Yeah.

 

526

00:18:08,287 --> 00:18:10,923

The problem with being

 

527

00:18:10,923 --> 00:18:13,125

sometimes a workaholic is

 

528

00:18:13,125 --> 00:18:14,259

that you can be emotionally

 

529

00:18:14,259 --> 00:18:18,063

unavailable to other people.

 

530

00:18:18,130 --> 00:18:21,133

I wouldn't say that I like

 

531

00:18:21,366 --> 00:18:24,736

I wouldn't say that about me.

 

532

00:18:24,837 --> 00:18:25,737

I mean, I,

 

533

00:18:25,737 --> 00:18:28,740

I get along phenomenal with my wife

 

534

00:18:28,740 --> 00:18:29,341

when we get

 

535

00:18:29,341 --> 00:18:30,375

and we have a great relationship.

 

536

00:18:30,375 --> 00:18:30,742

I have,

 

537

00:18:30,742 --> 00:18:31,043

you know,

 

538

00:18:31,043 --> 00:18:32,377

and I think that

 

539

00:18:32,377 --> 00:18:33,479

she's very independent, too.

 

540

00:18:33,479 --> 00:18:35,147

That's the other thing, too.

 

541

00:18:35,147 --> 00:18:36,615

She's very independent

 

542

00:18:36,615 --> 00:18:38,250

and has her own life and

 

543

00:18:38,250 --> 00:18:39,952

and does her own stuff and whatever.

 

544

00:18:39,952 --> 00:18:41,053

And so,

 

545

00:18:41,053 --> 00:18:41,820

you know,

 

546

00:18:41,820 --> 00:18:42,454

she's not

 

547

00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:43,021

I think if you

 

548

00:18:43,021 --> 00:18:43,856

if she was needy

 

549

00:18:43,856 --> 00:18:44,690

or if she was a different type

 

550

00:18:44,690 --> 00:18:48,427

of personality, maybe it wouldn't work.

 

551

00:18:48,494 --> 00:18:50,596

But we get along great.

 

552

00:18:50,596 --> 00:18:53,298

But I think a lot of times you could be

 

553

00:18:53,298 --> 00:18:54,199

I can see how you could

 

554

00:18:54,199 --> 00:18:55,267

be emotionally unavailable

 

555

00:18:55,267 --> 00:18:59,037

if you were like a workaholic.

 

556

00:18:59,104 --> 00:19:01,373

I used to work out with a guy one time

 

557

00:19:01,373 --> 00:19:02,608

who was a bodybuilder. Like.

 

558

00:19:02,608 --> 00:19:04,209

Like I was a slug working out.

 

559

00:19:04,209 --> 00:19:05,677

You know what I mean?

 

560

00:19:05,677 --> 00:19:06,812

But this guy was like a

 

561

00:19:06,812 --> 00:19:07,279

he was a

 

562

00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:08,080

he was a bodybuilder

 

563

00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,181

and he was he was on an

 

564

00:19:09,181 --> 00:19:09,815

he was on,

 

565

00:19:09,815 --> 00:19:11,483

you know, there's levels in life

 

566

00:19:11,483 --> 00:19:14,486

and he was that guy.

 

567

00:19:14,620 --> 00:19:17,156

And

 

568

00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:20,159

the way he was so consumed with that,

 

569

00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,461

I say he was almost

 

570

00:19:22,461 --> 00:19:23,695

emotionally unavailable

 

571

00:19:23,695 --> 00:19:25,998

to his wife and his kids, by the way.

 

572

00:19:25,998 --> 00:19:26,698

I mean, he was

 

573

00:19:26,698 --> 00:19:27,900

he had to be in that gym

 

574

00:19:27,900 --> 00:19:30,202

every day, Every day

 

575

00:19:30,202 --> 00:19:30,869

no matter what.

 

576

00:19:30,869 --> 00:19:31,637

That's just the way it was.

 

577

00:19:31,637 --> 00:19:32,671

He had a

 

578

00:19:32,671 --> 00:19:34,373

he had to eat a certain disciplined way

 

579

00:19:34,373 --> 00:19:35,874

every every time.

 

580

00:19:35,874 --> 00:19:37,843

He was so rigid and whatever.

 

581

00:19:37,843 --> 00:19:39,811

And where he was

 

582

00:19:39,811 --> 00:19:40,212

at the age

 

583

00:19:40,212 --> 00:19:40,812

where his kids

 

584

00:19:40,812 --> 00:19:41,847

could be doing other things.

 

585

00:19:41,847 --> 00:19:42,614

And but for him,

 

586

00:19:42,614 --> 00:19:43,682

it was always in the gym and

 

587

00:19:43,682 --> 00:19:46,084

gym and gym all the time.

 

588

00:19:46,151 --> 00:19:47,953

But

 

589

00:19:47,953 --> 00:19:49,188

so I you see, if

 

590

00:19:49,188 --> 00:19:49,555

you took

 

591

00:19:49,555 --> 00:19:51,089

that same type of mindset to work

 

592

00:19:51,089 --> 00:19:52,524

and you had kids and whatever,

 

593

00:19:52,524 --> 00:19:54,493

yeah, I can see that being a problem.

 

594

00:19:54,493 --> 00:19:56,395

But

 

595

00:19:56,395 --> 00:19:57,629

I don't know, I just,

 

596

00:19:57,629 --> 00:19:58,764

I just think it would be good

 

597

00:19:58,764 --> 00:19:59,631

to talk about this

 

598

00:19:59,631 --> 00:20:01,500

because if you find yourself in this

 

599

00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:05,137

rat race of

 

600

00:20:05,237 --> 00:20:06,572

maybe some of the signs

 

601

00:20:06,572 --> 00:20:06,939

we have,

 

602

00:20:06,939 --> 00:20:08,307

some of the signs here,

 

603

00:20:08,307 --> 00:20:10,943

they send you that list of Rob.

 

604

00:20:10,943 --> 00:20:12,177

What's your name? Rob.

 

605

00:20:12,177 --> 00:20:15,080

Yeah, I mostly.

 

606

00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,715

And

 

607

00:20:16,715 --> 00:20:18,884

unavailable too.

 

608

00:20:18,884 --> 00:20:20,285

No, no, no, no, no. I wouldn't.

 

609

00:20:20,285 --> 00:20:20,919

I don't.

 

610

00:20:20,919 --> 00:20:24,323

Yeah, I got I got my own thing going on.

 

611

00:20:24,389 --> 00:20:25,257

I could be a Paul.

 

612

00:20:25,257 --> 00:20:26,425

I can see me as Paul.

 

613

00:20:26,425 --> 00:20:27,659

Could you. I could actually.

 

614

00:20:27,659 --> 00:20:30,929

That would work for me too. Yeah. Yeah.

 

615

00:20:30,996 --> 00:20:31,730

All right.

 

616

00:20:31,730 --> 00:20:33,298

for the rest of the day.

 

617

00:20:33,298 --> 00:20:35,100

Okay. Here, here.

 

618

00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:36,134

Here's a way

 

619

00:20:36,134 --> 00:20:36,802

that you might know

 

620

00:20:36,802 --> 00:20:39,438

that you're a workaholic.

 

621

00:20:39,438 --> 00:20:40,672

Workaholics experiencing

 

622

00:20:40,672 --> 00:20:41,707

negative emotions

 

623

00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:43,008

like anxiety and guilt

 

624

00:20:43,008 --> 00:20:45,143

when they aren't working.

 

625

00:20:45,143 --> 00:20:46,245

Okay?

 

626

00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:48,013

And that is a trap.

 

627

00:20:48,013 --> 00:20:51,250

And I've kind of fallen into that.

 

628

00:20:51,250 --> 00:20:54,253

And I think a lot of guys do that

 

629

00:20:54,419 --> 00:20:55,621

because there's, like,

 

630

00:20:55,621 --> 00:20:56,922

all your business never ends.

 

631

00:20:56,922 --> 00:20:57,089

Like,

 

632

00:20:57,089 --> 00:20:58,357

you could always be doing something.

 

633

00:20:58,357 --> 00:21:01,026

I mean, it's like a former almost a day.

 

634

00:21:01,026 --> 00:21:01,893

They could never end.

 

635

00:21:01,893 --> 00:21:03,462

You could just keep going.

 

636

00:21:03,462 --> 00:21:05,764

I know I used to joke when years ago

 

637

00:21:05,764 --> 00:21:07,065

that my next job

 

638

00:21:07,065 --> 00:21:07,733

I should have a job

 

639

00:21:07,733 --> 00:21:08,700

that they open at eight

 

640

00:21:08,700 --> 00:21:10,669

and they close it for you.

 

641

00:21:10,669 --> 00:21:11,270

That's it.

 

642

00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:12,271

You can't do any more.

 

643

00:21:12,271 --> 00:21:12,971

You can't get in there.

 

644

00:21:12,971 --> 00:21:14,806

That's it. Whatever.

 

645

00:21:14,806 --> 00:21:18,877

Because as a flooring contractor,

 

646

00:21:18,944 --> 00:21:20,279

they can never end.

 

647

00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:21,480

And so you do feel guilty

 

648

00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:22,814

sometimes By now

 

649

00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:25,050

I could be doing this or I could be.

 

650

00:21:25,050 --> 00:21:25,917

We got the baseboard.

 

651

00:21:25,917 --> 00:21:26,885

At least I'm home now.

 

652

00:21:26,885 --> 00:21:27,152

I could

 

653

00:21:27,152 --> 00:21:28,687

I could hit the baseboard or I could

 

654

00:21:28,687 --> 00:21:29,621

I could do the risers

 

655

00:21:29,621 --> 00:21:31,790

and trends with my shop because

 

656

00:21:31,790 --> 00:21:35,994

blah, blah, blah, whatever

 

657

00:21:36,061 --> 00:21:36,328

work.

 

658

00:21:36,328 --> 00:21:37,562

I tend to

 

659

00:21:37,562 --> 00:21:38,263

work beyond

 

660

00:21:38,263 --> 00:21:39,998

what is reasonably expected of them,

 

661

00:21:39,998 --> 00:21:44,403

even by the organization.

 

662

00:21:44,469 --> 00:21:46,438

So

 

663

00:21:46,438 --> 00:21:46,972

we're colleagues

 

664

00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:48,573

and persistent thoughts about work

 

665

00:21:48,573 --> 00:21:50,809

when they're not working.

 

666

00:21:50,809 --> 00:21:51,543

I like the way this is.

 

667

00:21:51,543 --> 00:21:53,078

Go.

 

668

00:21:53,078 --> 00:21:53,545

I don't

 

669

00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:55,814

I don't like the way this is going.

 

670

00:21:55,814 --> 00:22:05,390

Yeah, I work.

 

671

00:22:05,457 --> 00:22:06,291

Yeah.

 

672

00:22:06,291 --> 00:22:08,460

I'm starting to think this is a

 

673

00:22:08,460 --> 00:22:11,763

is why I know that there's a

 

674

00:22:11,830 --> 00:22:12,931

that you and I

 

675

00:22:12,931 --> 00:22:15,133

are both mentioned in this article.

 

676

00:22:15,133 --> 00:22:16,768

You're a workaholic.

 

677

00:22:16,768 --> 00:22:18,770

And then there's somebody

 

678

00:22:18,770 --> 00:22:20,272

who is not a workaholic,

 

679

00:22:20,272 --> 00:22:22,974

but highly motivated with his job.

 

680

00:22:22,974 --> 00:22:23,942

Okay,

 

681

00:22:23,942 --> 00:22:26,311

now, that one right there, you know it.

 

682

00:22:26,311 --> 00:22:26,912

You've heard me

 

683

00:22:26,912 --> 00:22:29,247

tell other guys who work at Bowen

 

684

00:22:29,247 --> 00:22:31,750

and who I've worked with

 

685

00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:34,653

all my life, Hey,

 

686

00:22:34,653 --> 00:22:35,921

do your job right.

 

687

00:22:35,921 --> 00:22:37,155

Work as hard as you can

 

688

00:22:37,155 --> 00:22:38,256

when you're supposed to be there,

 

689

00:22:38,256 --> 00:22:39,458

whatever that.

 

690

00:22:39,458 --> 00:22:42,761

Kill it. Okay, then when it's over.

 

691

00:22:42,861 --> 00:22:44,029

But that bag of bricks

 

692

00:22:44,029 --> 00:22:45,564

down don't carry it around.

 

693

00:22:45,564 --> 00:22:48,333

It's a bag of bricks. Put it down.

 

694

00:22:48,333 --> 00:22:49,368

Get on with your life.

 

695

00:22:49,368 --> 00:22:52,170

There are some guys who can't do that,

 

696

00:22:52,170 --> 00:22:52,738

and it.

 

697

00:22:52,738 --> 00:22:55,707

It eats them alive.

 

698

00:22:55,907 --> 00:23:04,249

yeah,

 

699

00:23:04,349 --> 00:23:11,390

yeah,

 

700

00:23:11,490 --> 00:23:12,624

yeah, yeah, yep,

 

701

00:23:12,624 --> 00:23:34,379

yep, yep,

 

702

00:23:34,446 --> 00:23:35,580

yep.

 

703

00:23:35,580 --> 00:23:37,082

start and a finish time.

 

704

00:23:37,082 --> 00:23:38,283

That's beautiful.

 

705

00:23:38,283 --> 00:23:41,286

Well, that's fantastic,

 

706

00:23:41,453 --> 00:23:42,254

You just reminded me

 

707

00:23:42,254 --> 00:23:45,223

of one of my favorite phrases.

 

708

00:23:45,223 --> 00:23:47,893

My, my really good friend Jeff Rose

 

709

00:23:47,893 --> 00:23:49,327

passed away several years ago.

 

710

00:23:49,327 --> 00:23:51,696

That man, what a great guy.

 

711

00:23:51,696 --> 00:23:53,098

He used to say,

 

712

00:23:53,098 --> 00:23:53,331

You know,

 

713

00:23:53,331 --> 00:23:54,166

if you're going to be a bear,

 

714

00:23:54,166 --> 00:23:55,934

you might as well be a grizzly.

 

715

00:23:55,934 --> 00:24:01,807

And I like that expression.

 

716

00:24:01,873 --> 00:24:04,176

Yeah, but my response to that is, hey,

 

717

00:24:04,176 --> 00:24:05,510

somebody's got to worry about

 

718

00:24:05,510 --> 00:24:07,379

about things when everybody else is

 

719

00:24:07,379 --> 00:24:10,115

is not so

 

720

00:24:10,182 --> 00:24:13,552

I'm guilty of that one.

 

721

00:24:13,618 --> 00:24:14,219

guilty of that.

 

722

00:24:14,219 --> 00:24:16,254

I want Okay, let me see.

 

723

00:24:16,254 --> 00:24:19,691

Hear a motivational negative emotions

 

724

00:24:19,691 --> 00:24:21,393

like anxiety and guilt

 

725

00:24:21,393 --> 00:24:23,595

when you aren't working.

 

726

00:24:23,595 --> 00:24:27,599

I'm not me.

 

727

00:24:27,666 --> 00:24:28,467

the experience

 

728

00:24:28,467 --> 00:24:29,501

negative emotions,

 

729

00:24:29,501 --> 00:24:31,670

anxiety and guilt when not work.

 

730

00:24:31,670 --> 00:24:32,237

Yeah I would say

 

731

00:24:32,237 --> 00:24:33,939

I have been guilty of that in the past.

 

732

00:24:33,939 --> 00:24:38,043

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

733

00:24:38,143 --> 00:24:39,044

that you feel guilty

 

734

00:24:39,044 --> 00:24:40,679

about not fishing sometimes,

 

735

00:24:40,679 --> 00:24:43,381

if you haven't fished in a while,

 

736

00:24:43,381 --> 00:24:45,250

It's not that I feel guilty about it is

 

737

00:24:45,250 --> 00:24:46,318

I need to.

 

738

00:24:46,318 --> 00:24:48,019

If I have a vision. Well, I have to.

 

739

00:24:48,019 --> 00:24:49,788

I have to go fishing.

 

740

00:24:49,788 --> 00:24:51,590

That's. That's it for me.

 

741

00:24:51,590 --> 00:24:52,557

I mean, that's my,

 

742

00:24:52,557 --> 00:24:54,359

that's, that's my favorite thing to do.

 

743

00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,428

So.

 

744

00:24:56,428 --> 00:24:59,364

I mean, you and I have known each other

 

745

00:24:59,364 --> 00:25:01,032

well, almost 20 years.

 

746

00:25:01,032 --> 00:25:04,703

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

747

00:25:04,769 --> 00:25:06,238

And we've hung out,

 

748

00:25:06,238 --> 00:25:10,075

travel right, worked everything great.

 

749

00:25:10,141 --> 00:25:11,810

Right?

 

750

00:25:11,810 --> 00:25:20,785

Slept.

 

751

00:25:20,852 --> 00:25:22,387

No, I wouldn't work.

 

752

00:25:22,387 --> 00:25:26,925

I would not work.

 

753

00:25:27,025 --> 00:25:28,627

We're not here to have fun.

 

754

00:25:28,627 --> 00:25:29,160

know, there's

 

755

00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,163

athletes and social athletes.

 

756

00:25:32,397 --> 00:25:33,632

Okay?

 

757

00:25:33,632 --> 00:25:36,668

And nobody in our family

 

758

00:25:36,668 --> 00:25:40,438

really realized that until Rebecca

 

759

00:25:40,438 --> 00:25:48,113

married Kyle, Yeah.

 

760

00:25:48,179 --> 00:26:07,666

Yeah.

 

761

00:26:07,766 --> 00:26:08,233

no.

 

762

00:26:08,233 --> 00:26:11,002

Yeah, But I guess if you're a kick

 

763

00:26:11,002 --> 00:26:13,872

D3 football playing guy,

 

764

00:26:13,872 --> 00:26:14,873

there's athletes

 

765

00:26:14,873 --> 00:26:16,942

and there's social athletes.

 

766

00:26:16,942 --> 00:26:19,477

And I thought as soon as he said that,

 

767

00:26:19,477 --> 00:26:21,346

I started cracking up thinking,

 

768

00:26:21,346 --> 00:26:23,315

I can't go fishing with Wayne.

 

769

00:26:23,315 --> 00:26:25,083

I'm a social fisherman.

 

770

00:26:25,083 --> 00:26:26,184

yeah.

 

771

00:26:26,184 --> 00:26:28,887

I'll drive him crazy.

 

772

00:26:28,887 --> 00:26:30,221

You would.

 

773

00:26:30,221 --> 00:26:31,823

And then the more I see you going

 

774

00:26:31,823 --> 00:26:35,794

crazy, the more I'm going to Yeah.

 

775

00:26:35,894 --> 00:26:37,629

Yeah.

 

776

00:26:37,629 --> 00:26:39,464

That would not end well for.

 

777

00:26:39,464 --> 00:26:45,870

For either of us.

 

778

00:26:45,937 --> 00:26:46,237

But.

 

779

00:26:46,237 --> 00:26:47,939

But here's the thing.

 

780

00:26:47,939 --> 00:26:49,407

People think I'm not having a good time

 

781

00:26:49,407 --> 00:26:51,743

because I'm real serious like that.

 

782

00:26:51,810 --> 00:26:52,777

I remember when my.

 

783

00:26:52,777 --> 00:26:54,879

I've got a friend and his wife,

 

784

00:26:54,879 --> 00:26:56,348

You know, when we're going out,

 

785

00:26:56,348 --> 00:26:56,881

she knows me.

 

786

00:26:56,881 --> 00:26:58,216

I'm joking around a lot of time

 

787

00:26:58,216 --> 00:26:59,951

and we're having a good time, whatever.

 

788

00:26:59,951 --> 00:27:01,920

And then she sees me at work

 

789

00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,488

or she's been out with our fish,

 

790

00:27:03,488 --> 00:27:03,989

with ball,

 

791

00:27:03,989 --> 00:27:05,290

and I don't talk at all

 

792

00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:07,092

when I'm fishing, I don't ever talk,

 

793

00:27:07,092 --> 00:27:08,660

I don't want to talk to anybody.

 

794

00:27:08,660 --> 00:27:10,161

And she thinks I'm

 

795

00:27:10,161 --> 00:27:11,997

there's like something wrong with me.

 

796

00:27:11,997 --> 00:27:12,897

But it's not.

 

797

00:27:12,897 --> 00:27:14,366

I'm I'm having a good time.

 

798

00:27:14,366 --> 00:27:15,867

My life is just that

 

799

00:27:15,867 --> 00:27:20,839

I just, you know, it's just different.

 

800

00:27:20,939 --> 00:27:22,707

You don't talk when you fish.

 

801

00:27:22,707 --> 00:27:27,545

never,

 

802

00:27:27,612 --> 00:27:30,148

never

 

803

00:27:30,148 --> 00:27:35,920

take it back.

 

804

00:27:36,021 --> 00:27:36,655

I could do that

 

805

00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:37,822

because I'm not serious about golf.

 

806

00:27:37,822 --> 00:27:39,090

I don't care about golf.

 

807

00:27:39,090 --> 00:27:41,292

I actually take it back.

 

808

00:27:41,292 --> 00:27:42,560

And when I go by myself,

 

809

00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,797

I talk to myself a lot when I'm fishing

 

810

00:27:45,897 --> 00:27:47,198

a lot.

 

811

00:27:47,198 --> 00:27:48,967

But there's the other person in the boat.

 

812

00:27:48,967 --> 00:27:50,635

I we don't, we don't.

 

813

00:27:50,635 --> 00:27:51,770

I wouldn't talk.

 

814

00:27:51,770 --> 00:27:52,337

No. Yeah.

 

815

00:27:52,337 --> 00:27:53,738

hope there's no psychiatrists

 

816

00:27:53,738 --> 00:27:54,773

listening to this show.

 

817

00:27:54,773 --> 00:27:56,307

They're going to give you a call.

 

818

00:27:56,307 --> 00:27:56,508

Yeah.

 

819

00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:57,008

Like I said,

 

820

00:27:57,008 --> 00:27:58,309

I didn't like the way this was going.

 

821

00:27:58,309 --> 00:27:58,510

That's why

 

822

00:27:58,510 --> 00:28:03,048

I'm not going to read a lot of this.

 

823

00:28:03,148 --> 00:28:04,883

But when I talked about

 

824

00:28:04,883 --> 00:28:08,553

being emotionally unavailable,

 

825

00:28:08,653 --> 00:28:10,355

I'm going to tell you the best story

 

826

00:28:10,355 --> 00:28:12,123

I have ever known of

 

827

00:28:12,123 --> 00:28:12,757

about someone

 

828

00:28:12,757 --> 00:28:17,529

being emotionally unavailable and

 

829

00:28:17,595 --> 00:28:20,432

So let

 

830

00:28:20,432 --> 00:28:25,637

look,

 

831

00:28:25,737 --> 00:28:26,271

I don't care.

 

832

00:28:26,271 --> 00:28:27,572

I don't care about yours.

 

833

00:28:27,572 --> 00:28:31,376

Let me get to my gate.

 

834

00:28:31,443 --> 00:28:34,446

So we were in the Gatlinburg

 

835

00:28:34,446 --> 00:28:35,747

Pigeon Forge area,

 

836

00:28:35,747 --> 00:28:37,348

and it was around Christmas time

 

837

00:28:37,348 --> 00:28:38,249

and we went out to dinner

 

838

00:28:38,249 --> 00:28:40,919

and the anybody remembers,

 

839

00:28:40,919 --> 00:28:43,922

there was a massive fire in that area

 

840

00:28:44,089 --> 00:28:45,590

about a year earlier

 

841

00:28:45,590 --> 00:28:47,392

and several people were killed

 

842

00:28:47,392 --> 00:28:48,793

and homes and cabins were burned

 

843

00:28:48,793 --> 00:28:49,194

and everything.

 

844

00:28:49,194 --> 00:28:51,262

It was a terrible, terrible fire.

 

845

00:28:51,329 --> 00:28:52,597

And we were outside this

 

846

00:28:52,597 --> 00:28:53,732

restaurant

 

847

00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:56,735

and one of the guys I was with is is

 

848

00:28:56,935 --> 00:29:00,171

he's I say this Mentally challenged.

 

849

00:29:00,271 --> 00:29:02,107

He's like 56 years old.

 

850

00:29:02,107 --> 00:29:03,041

If you to look at him,

 

851

00:29:03,041 --> 00:29:03,641

you would not know.

 

852

00:29:03,641 --> 00:29:04,976

And by the way,

 

853

00:29:04,976 --> 00:29:07,078

the sweetest guy on earth,

 

854

00:29:07,078 --> 00:29:09,748

I mean, whenever we have a function, he

 

855

00:29:09,748 --> 00:29:10,815

if he doesn't come over,

 

856

00:29:10,815 --> 00:29:12,183

if he doesn't, someone doesn't

 

857

00:29:12,183 --> 00:29:13,718

bring him, it's a disappointment.

 

858

00:29:13,718 --> 00:29:16,087

We everybody loves him. He's a great guy.

 

859

00:29:16,087 --> 00:29:17,756

But the fact of the matter

 

860

00:29:17,756 --> 00:29:19,124

is he's about 58 years old

 

861

00:29:19,124 --> 00:29:19,691

and he is

 

862

00:29:19,691 --> 00:29:20,825

he's like

 

863

00:29:20,825 --> 00:29:22,460

mental capacity to like a six year old

 

864

00:29:22,460 --> 00:29:24,562

that would say something like that.

 

865

00:29:24,562 --> 00:29:26,264

So

 

866

00:29:26,264 --> 00:29:27,899

he lives to mow lawns.

 

867

00:29:27,899 --> 00:29:29,234

Okay. That is his favorites.

 

868

00:29:29,234 --> 00:29:31,836

All he cares about is mowing lawns.

 

869

00:29:31,836 --> 00:29:34,472

And we're outside this restaurant

 

870

00:29:34,472 --> 00:29:35,774

in Gatlinburg.

 

871

00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:36,908

And the owner was out

 

872

00:29:36,908 --> 00:29:40,111

there at the restaurant and I said,

 

873

00:29:40,211 --> 00:29:41,246

gosh, it's terrible.

 

874

00:29:41,246 --> 00:29:41,880

The fires, it

 

875

00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:42,814

you know, they went through here

 

876

00:29:42,814 --> 00:29:43,448

and it looks like,

 

877

00:29:43,448 --> 00:29:43,848

you know, people

 

878

00:29:43,848 --> 00:29:45,683

starting to pick up on kind of move

 

879

00:29:45,683 --> 00:29:47,218

on a little bit and everything.

 

880

00:29:47,218 --> 00:29:48,319

And he said, yeah.

 

881

00:29:48,319 --> 00:29:48,953

He goes, it's

 

882

00:29:48,953 --> 00:29:51,523

it's a shame because as a matter of fact,

 

883

00:29:51,523 --> 00:29:53,892

the last person that died from that fire

 

884

00:29:53,892 --> 00:29:55,460

was my dear friend.

 

885

00:29:55,460 --> 00:29:57,428

And she died last weekend

 

886

00:29:57,428 --> 00:29:59,297

in the hospital.

 

887

00:29:59,297 --> 00:30:01,099

So

 

888

00:30:01,099 --> 00:30:03,268

my friend who is mentally challenged.

 

889

00:30:03,268 --> 00:30:05,537

says, well,

 

890

00:30:05,537 --> 00:30:08,173

I just got a lot more for Christmas,

 

891

00:30:08,173 --> 00:30:11,843

but gave.

 

892

00:30:11,943 --> 00:30:13,578

that was his response to that man

 

893

00:30:13,578 --> 00:30:17,549

saying his dear friend just died.

 

894

00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:18,616

And like I said,

 

895

00:30:18,616 --> 00:30:19,584

if you look at this guy,

 

896

00:30:19,584 --> 00:30:20,385

you would never know there's

 

897

00:30:20,385 --> 00:30:22,153

anything wrong with him.

 

898

00:30:22,153 --> 00:30:25,323

And the guy was like taken aback you.

 

899

00:30:25,323 --> 00:30:25,990

Of course

 

900

00:30:25,990 --> 00:30:26,791

he was like,

 

901

00:30:26,791 --> 00:30:27,926

Hey, listen, I got my problems,

 

902

00:30:27,926 --> 00:30:30,161

you got yours, is what it sounded like.

 

903

00:30:30,161 --> 00:30:32,163

And

 

904

00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:33,331

I wanted to circle

 

905

00:30:33,331 --> 00:30:34,766

back to that guy and say, Hey, man,

 

906

00:30:34,766 --> 00:30:37,202

just so you know, here's a situation.

 

907

00:30:37,202 --> 00:30:40,438

But our our table's ready.

 

908

00:30:40,538 --> 00:30:43,508

And, you know, I

 

909

00:30:43,775 --> 00:30:45,844

like to eat.

 

910

00:30:45,844 --> 00:30:46,344

Yeah.

 

911

00:30:46,344 --> 00:30:48,580

So anyhow,

 

912

00:30:48,580 --> 00:30:50,515

so this is the point of the podcast.

 

913

00:30:50,515 --> 00:30:51,583

I just realized that

 

914

00:30:51,583 --> 00:30:52,684

it would have been a good idea for

 

915

00:30:52,684 --> 00:30:54,519

you and I to offer some suggestions

 

916

00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:55,520

and how to break the habit.

 

917

00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,222

If you, if you are

 

918

00:30:57,222 --> 00:30:59,624

a find yourself as a workaholic.

 

919

00:30:59,624 --> 00:31:02,627

I don't think you can.

 

920

00:31:02,794 --> 00:31:06,130

You're right.

 

921

00:31:06,197 --> 00:31:08,867

Yeah.

 

922

00:31:08,867 --> 00:31:10,668

Okay.

 

923

00:31:10,668 --> 00:31:12,704

Okay. Okay.

 

924

00:31:12,704 --> 00:31:20,111

All right.

 

925

00:31:20,211 --> 00:31:25,283

It's not going to happen.

 

926

00:31:25,383 --> 00:31:27,819

people when they're young, possibly.

 

927

00:31:27,819 --> 00:31:29,287

So this diagnosis is like

 

928

00:31:29,287 --> 00:31:29,954

you've got cancer.

 

929

00:31:29,954 --> 00:31:31,389

There's nothing you can do.

 

930

00:31:31,389 --> 00:31:32,690

Exactly. Enjoy it.

 

931

00:31:32,690 --> 00:31:34,592

Well, you got to embrace it.

 

932

00:31:34,592 --> 00:31:35,960

I think we

 

933

00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,962

we we could do a little one

 

934

00:31:37,962 --> 00:31:38,663

better than that.

 

935

00:31:38,663 --> 00:31:40,665

I think, as I'm thinking here.

 

936

00:31:40,665 --> 00:31:44,002

you sure Well,

 

937

00:31:44,102 --> 00:31:45,303

I know

 

938

00:31:45,303 --> 00:31:47,138

We're not professionally trained

 

939

00:31:47,138 --> 00:31:48,640

in any of this stuff.

 

940

00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:49,540

okay.

 

941

00:31:49,540 --> 00:31:52,310

Well, yeah, but, you know,

 

942

00:31:52,310 --> 00:31:56,514

you get a license online.

 

943

00:31:56,614 --> 00:31:57,548

Okay, here's what I would tell

 

944

00:31:57,548 --> 00:32:01,185

somebody else. Okay,

 

945

00:32:01,286 --> 00:32:02,587

here's what I would say.

 

946

00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:06,958

I'd say, okay, listen.

 

947

00:32:07,058 --> 00:32:09,193

Yeah,

 

948

00:32:09,193 --> 00:32:10,895

yeah.

 

949

00:32:10,895 --> 00:32:12,430

Physician, heal thyself.

 

950

00:32:12,430 --> 00:32:15,433

I would say I would say, look,

 

951

00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:16,467

if you can find

 

952

00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:19,837

a hobby outside of your job,

 

953

00:32:19,904 --> 00:32:21,239

something that

 

954

00:32:21,239 --> 00:32:23,441

isn't with other floor guys

 

955

00:32:23,441 --> 00:32:25,276

doesn't have anything to do with floors,

 

956

00:32:25,276 --> 00:32:27,812

a complete distraction from floors.

 

957

00:32:27,812 --> 00:32:28,413

I mean, like,

 

958

00:32:28,413 --> 00:32:30,214

like painting or whatever or something

 

959

00:32:30,214 --> 00:32:31,149

or hiking or something,

 

960

00:32:31,149 --> 00:32:32,650

anything outside of the,

 

961

00:32:32,650 --> 00:32:34,519

of the flooring industry.

 

962

00:32:34,519 --> 00:32:36,854

I'd say that would be

 

963

00:32:36,854 --> 00:32:39,857

probably the best shot you got of,

 

964

00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:43,061

of rating, you know, number one,

 

965

00:32:43,127 --> 00:32:44,028

I would say number one.

 

966

00:32:44,028 --> 00:32:45,363

Well that's number two.

 

967

00:32:45,363 --> 00:32:47,332

Number one, I would say

 

968

00:32:47,432 --> 00:32:49,000

that you're aware of it,

 

969

00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,336

that you make yourself at least aware

 

970

00:32:51,336 --> 00:32:52,270

that you have this trade.

 

971

00:32:52,270 --> 00:32:53,604

And where does it come from?

 

972

00:32:53,604 --> 00:32:55,740

I mean, if you read a of this,

 

973

00:32:55,740 --> 00:32:57,809

it goes way back to the childhood.

 

974

00:32:57,809 --> 00:33:03,881

And I know I don't we don't need to go.

 

975

00:33:03,948 --> 00:33:06,617

stuff and I'm like,

 

976

00:33:06,617 --> 00:33:08,386

where are we going to go with this thing

 

977

00:33:08,386 --> 00:33:10,188

today? Yeah.

 

978

00:33:10,188 --> 00:33:11,322

We don't think we need to go

 

979

00:33:11,322 --> 00:33:12,724

any further than this.

 

980

00:33:12,724 --> 00:33:14,859

But I think number one is

 

981

00:33:14,859 --> 00:33:16,627

at least be aware that this might be

 

982

00:33:16,627 --> 00:33:18,162

something you suffer with.

 

983

00:33:18,162 --> 00:33:18,997

And number two,

 

984

00:33:18,997 --> 00:33:19,931

that it may affect

 

985

00:33:19,931 --> 00:33:24,168

other loved ones in your life.

 

986

00:33:24,235 --> 00:33:26,304

Hey, I'm trying here

 

987

00:33:26,304 --> 00:33:27,505

and.

 

988

00:33:27,505 --> 00:33:29,974

All right.

 

989

00:33:29,974 --> 00:33:31,743

I am.

 

990

00:33:31,743 --> 00:33:33,177

And

 

991

00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:48,659

yeah,

 

992

00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,629

yeah,

 

993

00:33:51,629 --> 00:33:52,697

yep, yep.

 

994

00:33:52,697 --> 00:33:54,665

day's work in, but.

 

995

00:33:54,665 --> 00:33:55,600

But I could definitely

 

996

00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:56,534

see the difference.

 

997

00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:57,535

And maybe you're right.

 

998

00:33:57,535 --> 00:33:59,303

Maybe if somebody

 

999

00:33:59,303 --> 00:34:00,905

realizes their workaholic.

 

1000

00:34:00,905 --> 00:34:02,707

But I think you've always known

 

1001

00:34:02,707 --> 00:34:04,909

your workaholic and

 

1002

00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:09,680

Well,

 

1003

00:34:09,747 --> 00:34:13,618

second job.

 

1004

00:34:13,718 --> 00:34:15,153

fishing poles do you own?

 

1005

00:34:15,153 --> 00:34:15,720

Yeah.

 

1006

00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:16,320

We don't get in

 

1007

00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,957

that about four more or the last week

 

1008

00:34:20,024 --> 00:34:23,027

I went to Texas about four.

 

1009

00:34:23,227 --> 00:34:27,198

So

 

1010

00:34:27,298 --> 00:34:29,901

yeah,

 

1011

00:34:29,901 --> 00:34:31,736

I probably got about five

 

1012

00:34:31,736 --> 00:34:33,571

that I've really never used before.

 

1013

00:34:33,571 --> 00:34:34,839

But,

 

1014

00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:35,907

but there are,

 

1015

00:34:35,907 --> 00:34:38,743

there's a reason for all of them.

 

1016

00:34:38,743 --> 00:34:42,346

I wasn't going to say.

 

1017

00:34:42,413 --> 00:34:43,948

Yeah,

 

1018

00:34:43,948 --> 00:34:44,582

yeah.

 

1019

00:34:44,582 --> 00:34:45,550

I mean, you know,

 

1020

00:34:45,550 --> 00:34:48,519

I think number one in the very least,

 

1021

00:34:48,553 --> 00:34:50,288

be aware of it.

 

1022

00:34:50,288 --> 00:34:51,055

Be aware of the

 

1023

00:34:51,055 --> 00:34:52,490

how it can affect your life

 

1024

00:34:52,490 --> 00:34:53,791

and other people.

 

1025

00:34:53,791 --> 00:34:54,992

If you wanted to change,

 

1026

00:34:54,992 --> 00:34:56,494

you could look into how that changes.

 

1027

00:34:56,494 --> 00:34:57,528

I think I mean,

 

1028

00:34:57,528 --> 00:34:58,029

you know,

 

1029

00:34:58,029 --> 00:35:04,368

some of this goes pretty deep, but

 

1030

00:35:04,469 --> 00:35:08,239

but here.

 

1031

00:35:08,339 --> 00:35:09,740

Yeah.

 

1032

00:35:09,740 --> 00:35:11,008

Yeah, right.

 

1033

00:35:11,008 --> 00:35:11,943

Maybe the first thing to do

 

1034

00:35:11,943 --> 00:35:14,946

is realize, Geez, I am a workaholic.

 

1035

00:35:15,012 --> 00:35:16,848

but here's the thing.

 

1036

00:35:16,848 --> 00:35:18,749

When I look at you, you're right.

 

1037

00:35:18,749 --> 00:35:20,751

I don't see that you're a workaholic,

 

1038

00:35:20,751 --> 00:35:23,421

but you're a hard worker, and there's no

 

1039

00:35:23,421 --> 00:35:25,790

there's no shame and there's no, like,

 

1040

00:35:25,790 --> 00:35:28,059

step down, because you know what I mean?

 

1041

00:35:28,059 --> 00:35:28,259

That.

 

1042

00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:30,194

I mean, you're as passionate as they get,

 

1043

00:35:30,194 --> 00:35:35,700

so there's got to be a fine line there.

 

1044

00:35:35,766 --> 00:35:36,734

if somebody

 

1045

00:35:36,734 --> 00:35:39,737

had talked to me about

 

1046

00:35:39,770 --> 00:35:42,673

right before Christmas, I did

 

1047

00:35:42,673 --> 00:35:45,977

15 schools in 16 weeks.

 

1048

00:35:46,043 --> 00:35:47,778

Unheard of, Wow.

 

1049

00:35:47,778 --> 00:35:50,781

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

1050

00:35:50,848 --> 00:35:51,816

people that can't say

 

1051

00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:54,285

no, I had people call me,

 

1052

00:35:54,285 --> 00:35:55,586

you know, hey, I'd like to do a school.

 

1053

00:35:55,586 --> 00:35:57,355

Like do a school.

 

1054

00:35:57,355 --> 00:36:00,591

I had to plan vacations during that 16

 

1055

00:36:00,691 --> 00:36:01,058

weeks.

 

1056

00:36:01,058 --> 00:36:02,560

And I said, well,

 

1057

00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,962

I'll I'll take time off later.

 

1058

00:36:04,962 --> 00:36:06,230

I'll do the school.

 

1059

00:36:06,230 --> 00:36:10,668

And a boy,

 

1060

00:36:10,735 --> 00:36:22,046

right?

 

1061

00:36:22,113 --> 00:36:23,581

Yeah,

 

1062

00:36:23,581 --> 00:36:34,759

yeah, yeah,

 

1063

00:36:34,825 --> 00:36:36,861

yeah,

 

1064

00:36:36,861 --> 00:36:37,428

right.

 

1065

00:36:37,428 --> 00:36:40,398

Yeah. Yep.

 

1066

00:36:40,398 --> 00:36:50,007

What?

 

1067

00:36:50,107 --> 00:36:51,542

Right?

 

1068

00:36:51,542 --> 00:36:55,947

Yeah.

 

1069

00:36:56,013 --> 00:36:57,848

So,

 

1070

00:36:57,848 --> 00:37:02,286

yeah,

 

1071

00:37:02,353 --> 00:37:04,855

yep,

 

1072

00:37:04,855 --> 00:37:05,590

yep.

 

1073

00:37:05,590 --> 00:37:06,891

No, I get it.

 

1074

00:37:06,891 --> 00:37:09,160

there's difference with workaholics

 

1075

00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,062

where it's like they

 

1076

00:37:11,062 --> 00:37:12,129

they can't do what

 

1077

00:37:12,129 --> 00:37:13,464

I did at the end of that.

 

1078

00:37:13,464 --> 00:37:19,870

Just Yeah,

 

1079

00:37:19,937 --> 00:37:23,507

Yeah, I agree.

 

1084

00:37:33,384 --> 00:37:34,986

Yeah.

 

1085

00:37:34,986 --> 00:37:37,021

Yep.

 

1086

00:37:37,021 --> 00:37:38,489

Well,

 

1087

00:37:38,489 --> 00:37:41,859

the other thing too is that you can put

 

1088

00:37:41,926 --> 00:37:43,160

too much expectation issues

 

1089

00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,829

on other people

 

1090

00:37:44,829 --> 00:37:45,630

if you're in is

 

1091

00:37:45,630 --> 00:37:47,431

if you're that type of guy, you know,

 

1092

00:37:47,431 --> 00:37:48,266

I mean you have to realize,

 

1093

00:37:48,266 --> 00:37:48,866

you know, everybody

 

1094

00:37:48,866 --> 00:37:51,269

everybody's made like you and

 

1095

00:37:51,269 --> 00:37:52,703

some people value their time lives and.

 

1096

00:37:52,703 --> 00:37:54,138

But like me,

 

1097

00:37:54,138 --> 00:37:55,473

working with the younger generation

 

1098

00:37:55,473 --> 00:37:57,808

today would be a problem.

 

1099

00:37:57,808 --> 00:37:58,509

Do you know what I mean?

 

1100

00:37:58,509 --> 00:37:58,909

The people

 

1101

00:37:58,909 --> 00:38:00,611

that really value their time off

 

1102

00:38:00,611 --> 00:38:01,178

and everything

 

1103

00:38:01,178 --> 00:38:04,115

and that would be a problem for me,

 

1104

00:38:04,115 --> 00:38:05,883

you know what I mean?

 

1105

00:38:05,883 --> 00:38:09,053

So, the do you remember the day

 

1106

00:38:09,153 --> 00:38:10,988

1107

00:38:10,988 --> 00:38:13,958

1108

00:38:14,091 --> 00:38:17,094

00:38:21,499 --> 00:38:23,467

00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:24,568

the adhesive guru.

 

1112

00:38:24,568 --> 00:38:27,438

You were taking over it easiest. Yeah.

 

1113

00:38:27,438 --> 00:38:28,673

What did I say to you?

 

1114

00:38:28,673 --> 00:38:30,007

Do you remember what I said to you

 

1115

00:38:30,007 --> 00:38:31,108

first thing?

 

1116

00:38:31,108 --> 00:38:33,244

You know, we deserve that better.

 

1117

00:38:33,244 --> 00:38:34,178

You're unbelievable.

 

1118

00:38:34,178 --> 00:38:37,114

I mean, I've never met a man like you

 

1119

00:38:37,181 --> 00:38:39,917

1120

00:38:39,917 --> 00:38:42,520

Well, luckily I've

 

1128

00:39:05,209 --> 00:39:06,711

There you go.

 

1132

00:39:17,121 --> 00:39:18,155

you're saying about working

 

1133

00:39:18,155 --> 00:39:20,291

with young kids,

 

1134

00:39:20,291 --> 00:39:21,225

I would like to tell you

 

1135

00:39:21,225 --> 00:39:23,327

1136

00:39:23,327 --> 00:39:25,329

I'm not going to do that, though.

 

1141

00:39:30,768 --> 00:39:33,404

But

 

1142

00:39:33,404 --> 00:39:36,841

I had three kids at this school

 

1143

00:39:36,941 --> 00:39:41,479

that were all three under 21 years old.

 

1144

00:39:41,579 --> 00:39:42,880

Wow.

 

1145

00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,515

Let me tell you,

 

1146

00:39:44,515 --> 00:39:46,150

I think the future looks bright.

 

1147

00:39:46,150 --> 00:39:48,152

1148

00:39:48,152 --> 00:39:49,987

was a three day school.

 

1157

00:40:21,152 --> 00:40:22,620

And these kids, you could tell

 

1158

00:40:22,620 --> 00:40:25,089

they were all just out of high school.

 

1159

00:40:25,089 --> 00:40:28,826
