00:00:11,311 --> 00:00:11,811
Hello and
2
00:00:11,811 --> 00:00:13,113
welcome to another episode
3
00:00:13,113 --> 00:00:14,948
of On the Floor with Wayne and Rob.
4
00:00:14,948 --> 00:00:15,382
I'm Wayne
5
00:00:15,382 --> 00:00:16,416
Highlanders National Sales
6
00:00:16,416 --> 00:00:18,451
Manager for Bona Adhesives.
7
00:00:18,451 --> 00:00:20,754
And I'm Rob Johnson from Bona Training.
8
00:00:21,988 --> 00:00:24,357
And all the legends are dying.
9
00:00:25,325 --> 00:00:25,859
Let's.
10
00:00:25,892 --> 00:00:28,928
Few times back it was Eddie Van Halen
11
00:00:29,863 --> 00:00:32,832
and Sean Connery died the other day.
12
00:00:32,832 --> 00:00:35,101
And now Billy Joe Schaefer.
13
00:00:35,101 --> 00:00:37,470
You know, Billy Joe Schaefer is.
14
00:00:37,470 --> 00:00:39,873
Why have I heard that?
15
00:00:39,873 --> 00:00:43,610
Oh, he was the geezer Green Day.
16
00:00:44,477 --> 00:00:46,212
Oh, gosh, no.
17
00:00:46,746 --> 00:00:48,248
No. No.
18
00:00:48,248 --> 00:00:49,783
Billy Joe Schaefer,
19
00:00:49,783 --> 00:00:51,317
a lot of people don't know who he is.
20
00:00:51,317 --> 00:00:52,419
He's a legend.
21
00:00:52,419 --> 00:00:55,455
But a lot of people don't know.
22
00:00:55,455 --> 00:00:58,124
He's a he's a singer, but not
23
00:00:59,225 --> 00:01:00,460
successful.
24
00:01:00,460 --> 00:01:02,796
I mean, like on a huge scale.
25
00:01:03,263 --> 00:01:05,065
But he wrote a lot of songs
26
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:06,166
for a lot of people,
27
00:01:06,166 --> 00:01:07,534
and he's very well respected.
28
00:01:07,534 --> 00:01:09,602
He's from Texas. He's from Texas.
29
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:12,572
But you heard outlaw country, right?
30
00:01:12,572 --> 00:01:14,007
You've heard that expression.
31
00:01:14,007 --> 00:01:14,974
Yes.
32
00:01:14,974 --> 00:01:17,610
You can almost trace it back to him.
33
00:01:18,211 --> 00:01:19,345
If you look at that,
34
00:01:19,345 --> 00:01:21,981
when Jennings album, Honky Tonk Heroes,
35
00:01:23,917 --> 00:01:25,652
every song on that album or
36
00:01:25,652 --> 00:01:28,088
helped co-write every song on that album,
37
00:01:28,088 --> 00:01:29,522
and that's where his fame came from.
38
00:01:29,522 --> 00:01:30,457
So he died.
39
00:01:30,457 --> 00:01:32,459
We're losing a lot of legends or dying.
40
00:01:32,459 --> 00:01:33,626
What songs that he write.
41
00:01:33,626 --> 00:01:35,128
He said he wrote some famous songs.
42
00:01:35,128 --> 00:01:36,596
What songs did he write?
43
00:01:36,596 --> 00:01:37,363
Dog Heroes.
44
00:01:37,363 --> 00:01:39,132
I mean, you know, mothers don't mothers
45
00:01:39,132 --> 00:01:40,834
don't let your babies grow to be cowboys.
46
00:01:40,834 --> 00:01:41,334
I think it says.
47
00:01:41,334 --> 00:01:42,802
But don't quote me on that.
48
00:01:42,802 --> 00:01:44,671
Have to look that up and I don't want to.
49
00:01:44,671 --> 00:01:45,505
All right.
50
00:01:46,106 --> 00:01:47,006
So, yeah,
51
00:01:47,006 --> 00:01:48,641
when I saw the legend of that, I'm
52
00:01:48,641 --> 00:01:51,945
I'm afraid to fall asleep at night, Rob.
53
00:01:51,945 --> 00:01:52,846
Just the
54
00:01:52,846 --> 00:01:53,947
just another legend
55
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:56,116
in your own mind, huh?
56
00:01:56,449 --> 00:01:57,784
Yeah, it's scary.
57
00:01:57,784 --> 00:01:58,818
You know what album
58
00:01:58,818 --> 00:02:00,787
I just bought or just,
59
00:02:00,787 --> 00:02:02,088
you know, whatever they call that.
60
00:02:02,088 --> 00:02:03,523
You buy albums anymore?
61
00:02:03,523 --> 00:02:05,592
No, I didn't buy an album.
62
00:02:05,592 --> 00:02:06,559
I guess you could call.
63
00:02:06,559 --> 00:02:08,661
I buy an album, you know, on Apple.
64
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:09,362
Apple?
65
00:02:10,396 --> 00:02:11,131
Yeah.
66
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:12,832
What do they call that?
67
00:02:13,166 --> 00:02:14,634
The Apple Library.
68
00:02:14,634 --> 00:02:16,636
Whatever. The Apple Music Store.
69
00:02:16,669 --> 00:02:20,073
What is that called?
70
00:02:20,073 --> 00:02:22,542
Or Apple Music? Apple.
71
00:02:22,542 --> 00:02:24,777
Okay. I don't it.
72
00:02:25,345 --> 00:02:26,546
It. Yeah, I know.
73
00:02:26,546 --> 00:02:28,348
It's called something.
74
00:02:28,948 --> 00:02:31,351
I, I do
75
00:02:32,418 --> 00:02:35,522
both of us don't know.
76
00:02:36,956 --> 00:02:37,891
Oh, man.
77
00:02:37,891 --> 00:02:39,826
I love that freaking iTunes.
78
00:02:39,826 --> 00:02:41,728
I have spent thousands of dollars
79
00:02:41,728 --> 00:02:43,463
on that thing
80
00:02:43,763 --> 00:02:45,932
over the few over the last few years.
81
00:02:46,232 --> 00:02:49,502
And the last album I just bought was
82
00:02:50,036 --> 00:02:51,070
Johnny Paycheck's
83
00:02:51,070 --> 00:02:53,173
Take This Job and Shove It.
84
00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:55,942
And his worst song he ever sing
85
00:02:56,843 --> 00:02:58,545
and is most famous.
86
00:02:58,545 --> 00:02:59,812
Isn't that for me?
87
00:02:59,812 --> 00:03:01,181
Because
88
00:03:01,648 --> 00:03:03,550
he does a song on that album
89
00:03:03,550 --> 00:03:05,485
that even my kids like.
90
00:03:05,485 --> 00:03:06,886
Everybody came over the other day
91
00:03:06,886 --> 00:03:08,121
for a cookout.
92
00:03:08,121 --> 00:03:10,857
I was playing my new music
93
00:03:10,857 --> 00:03:13,760
and that song that they loved that
94
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,962
I loved, too, is
95
00:03:15,962 --> 00:03:18,331
I'm the only hell my momma ever raised.
96
00:03:19,165 --> 00:03:20,166
Yeah.
97
00:03:20,433 --> 00:03:21,734
That was a good song.
98
00:03:21,734 --> 00:03:22,569
It's a good song.
99
00:03:22,569 --> 00:03:24,938
But his best song of all time
100
00:03:24,938 --> 00:03:26,906
is old violin.
101
00:03:26,906 --> 00:03:29,042
Old violin. Yeah.
102
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:31,678
And it was another one.
103
00:03:32,478 --> 00:03:33,913
Take a full set and shoot
104
00:03:33,913 --> 00:03:34,981
something about that.
105
00:03:34,981 --> 00:03:36,015
And she tried it again.
106
00:03:36,015 --> 00:03:36,616
Remember, they have it.
107
00:03:37,984 --> 00:03:39,719
From cotton to satin.
108
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:40,653
Yeah. Yeah.
109
00:03:40,653 --> 00:03:42,422
He's always into his threads.
110
00:03:42,422 --> 00:03:42,956
Yes.
111
00:03:42,956 --> 00:03:45,391
From cotton to satin.
112
00:03:45,992 --> 00:03:46,759
But, you know.
113
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:49,495
Trimming hem to Manhattan,
114
00:03:50,129 --> 00:03:53,366
he might go to a lonely
115
00:03:54,100 --> 00:03:56,402
limousine.
116
00:03:56,402 --> 00:03:59,973
She went from cotton to satin,
117
00:04:00,707 --> 00:04:04,310
from Birmingham to man Manhattan.
118
00:04:05,011 --> 00:04:06,212
The hell are you saying you.
119
00:04:06,212 --> 00:04:10,817
Had to follow her dreams?
120
00:04:11,517 --> 00:04:12,151
That's a good song.
121
00:04:12,151 --> 00:04:14,621
I could sing that song.
122
00:04:14,821 --> 00:04:15,922
You want to keep going?
123
00:04:15,922 --> 00:04:16,723
No, no, I'm good.
124
00:04:16,723 --> 00:04:17,190
I can tell.
125
00:04:17,190 --> 00:04:17,690
You don't want me
126
00:04:17,690 --> 00:04:20,927
to keep going with that.
127
00:04:20,927 --> 00:04:22,528
He died penniless, you know,
128
00:04:22,528 --> 00:04:24,097
but he died dead, broke.
129
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:25,531
Couldn't even afford his own
130
00:04:25,531 --> 00:04:28,101
his own funeral raising.
131
00:04:28,101 --> 00:04:29,836
There's a story that I heard
132
00:04:29,836 --> 00:04:32,905
when I was in Memphis on
133
00:04:33,573 --> 00:04:36,209
he was going to tour with Johnny Cash,
134
00:04:37,710 --> 00:04:39,979
or Johnny Cash wanted them to tour
135
00:04:39,979 --> 00:04:41,014
or do a concert with him,
136
00:04:41,014 --> 00:04:42,649
something like that.
137
00:04:42,649 --> 00:04:45,151
And they had to get him there a
138
00:04:45,151 --> 00:04:47,987
day early. They lied to him.
139
00:04:49,622 --> 00:04:50,757
They said, Hey, you need to
140
00:04:50,757 --> 00:04:51,991
be here on the 18th.
141
00:04:51,991 --> 00:04:53,159
And they knew that he wouldn't
142
00:04:53,159 --> 00:04:54,994
be there on the 18th,
143
00:04:54,994 --> 00:04:56,729
but it was really the 19th
144
00:04:56,729 --> 00:04:57,997
and he shows up late
145
00:04:57,997 --> 00:04:59,966
and they actually held him
146
00:04:59,966 --> 00:05:02,135
prisoner in his hotel room.
147
00:05:02,135 --> 00:05:04,203
Wow. Just so he could do it.
148
00:05:04,203 --> 00:05:05,171
Stories. Great.
149
00:05:05,171 --> 00:05:07,774
I'm barely skimming the story, but
150
00:05:08,408 --> 00:05:11,311
I heard it in Johnny Cash's words.
151
00:05:11,377 --> 00:05:12,412
Okay.
152
00:05:12,412 --> 00:05:14,314
We had done some of the Johnny Cash tours
153
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:15,181
and stuff like that.
154
00:05:15,181 --> 00:05:18,384
And oh, this story is just hysterical
155
00:05:18,384 --> 00:05:19,986
because he was
156
00:05:19,986 --> 00:05:23,423
flippin mad that they would do that.
157
00:05:23,423 --> 00:05:24,824
But that was the only way they knew
158
00:05:24,824 --> 00:05:25,892
that they could get him there
159
00:05:25,892 --> 00:05:28,094
and get him to do the show.
160
00:05:28,094 --> 00:05:30,163
But yeah, I did hear that, that
161
00:05:30,163 --> 00:05:32,432
he didn't have much after he passed.
162
00:05:32,832 --> 00:05:34,801
Yep. Okay.
163
00:05:34,801 --> 00:05:36,502
So we are going to talk today
164
00:05:36,502 --> 00:05:38,371
about contracts.
165
00:05:38,371 --> 00:05:40,106
Why do we need them?
166
00:05:40,106 --> 00:05:42,175
And I'll tell you one good reason
167
00:05:42,175 --> 00:05:46,412
that came to my mind right away, Rob.
168
00:05:46,412 --> 00:05:47,180
You know,
169
00:05:47,180 --> 00:05:49,048
and I think probably the same in a way,
170
00:05:49,048 --> 00:05:50,083
we're kind of like hairdressers
171
00:05:50,083 --> 00:05:50,550
because like me
172
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:52,618
going to a barbershop and saying, hey,
173
00:05:52,618 --> 00:05:54,420
here's a picture of Matthew Carney here.
174
00:05:54,420 --> 00:05:55,088
I want to look like that.
175
00:05:55,088 --> 00:05:56,055
I want my head to look like this
176
00:05:56,055 --> 00:05:57,123
when I come out.
177
00:05:57,290 --> 00:05:57,757
Right.
178
00:05:57,757 --> 00:05:57,990
You know,
179
00:05:57,990 --> 00:05:59,125
it could be some stuff lost
180
00:05:59,125 --> 00:06:00,693
in that translation right
181
00:06:00,693 --> 00:06:01,961
there has expectations
182
00:06:01,961 --> 00:06:03,029
all over
183
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:04,764
every job we go into
184
00:06:04,764 --> 00:06:07,166
and so it's important that we
185
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,636
that we at least talk about contracts.
186
00:06:10,636 --> 00:06:11,771
And for
187
00:06:12,739 --> 00:06:13,873
full disclosure, though,
188
00:06:13,873 --> 00:06:16,109
disclaimer here, Robert,
189
00:06:16,109 --> 00:06:18,010
I are not attorneys,
190
00:06:18,077 --> 00:06:24,117
so, you know, to get into into a
191
00:06:24,751 --> 00:06:25,752
you know,
192
00:06:25,952 --> 00:06:26,853
into the equation
193
00:06:26,853 --> 00:06:28,321
when we talk about this.
194
00:06:28,321 --> 00:06:28,855
It's
195
00:06:32,091 --> 00:06:34,660
we are not attorneys
196
00:06:34,660 --> 00:06:39,632
don't even play one on TV.
197
00:06:39,632 --> 00:06:41,834
Did you use contracts as a contractor?
198
00:06:42,335 --> 00:06:43,469
I sure did.
199
00:06:43,469 --> 00:06:46,372
Yeah.
200
00:06:46,372 --> 00:06:48,040
The only reason I ever started
201
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,442
using contracts was I found out
202
00:06:49,442 --> 00:06:49,942
I was away.
203
00:06:49,942 --> 00:06:52,512
I could get good down payments
204
00:06:52,512 --> 00:06:54,347
rather than just asking somebody
205
00:06:54,347 --> 00:06:56,015
or writing it on the back of the card
206
00:06:56,015 --> 00:06:57,283
or anything.
207
00:06:57,750 --> 00:06:59,619
Like I said, terrible business man.
208
00:06:59,619 --> 00:07:00,820
Pretty good floor guy.
209
00:07:00,820 --> 00:07:03,222
Terrible business man.
210
00:07:03,689 --> 00:07:05,191
Right off the bat.
211
00:07:05,191 --> 00:07:06,058
I'll tell you why
212
00:07:06,058 --> 00:07:08,027
I started really going into contracts
213
00:07:08,027 --> 00:07:10,930
because I got burned a couple of times.
214
00:07:10,930 --> 00:07:13,866
It was during the heyday of oil soaps
215
00:07:14,667 --> 00:07:17,503
and we had done a couple of records
216
00:07:17,503 --> 00:07:18,971
that went south on us
217
00:07:18,971 --> 00:07:20,106
because, you know, this was back
218
00:07:20,106 --> 00:07:20,840
in the eighties
219
00:07:22,074 --> 00:07:25,111
and I had to eat those jobs.
220
00:07:25,111 --> 00:07:26,646
Once I finished, started peeling,
221
00:07:26,646 --> 00:07:27,447
I had to go in
222
00:07:27,447 --> 00:07:29,248
and do a whole recent on that.
223
00:07:29,248 --> 00:07:30,183
So
224
00:07:30,783 --> 00:07:35,288
after the second disaster,
225
00:07:35,288 --> 00:07:37,089
we started writing up contracts.
226
00:07:37,089 --> 00:07:38,458
And one of the ways
227
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:40,860
that we wrote into our contract was,
228
00:07:40,860 --> 00:07:43,029
you know, I charge X number.
229
00:07:43,229 --> 00:07:44,764
You know, I charged
230
00:07:45,064 --> 00:07:46,899
250 to sand your floor
231
00:07:46,899 --> 00:07:49,969
and a buck to screen and coat your floor.
232
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:52,472
If the screening code fails,
233
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,474
I only charge you a dollar 75.
234
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:56,042
So that way everybody
235
00:07:56,042 --> 00:07:56,876
you know, who knows
236
00:07:56,876 --> 00:07:58,211
if it was a legal contract,
237
00:07:58,211 --> 00:07:59,045
it looked legal.
238
00:07:59,045 --> 00:07:59,512
I remember
239
00:07:59,512 --> 00:08:00,546
we went to an office
240
00:08:00,546 --> 00:08:03,249
to supply place and got it, but
241
00:08:04,851 --> 00:08:06,953
it it helped
242
00:08:06,953 --> 00:08:07,553
and it did
243
00:08:07,553 --> 00:08:10,089
help us out in a couple of jobs.
244
00:08:10,089 --> 00:08:12,458
So if you're not using contracts.
245
00:08:12,458 --> 00:08:15,061
Yeah, well, in some cases
246
00:08:15,061 --> 00:08:16,262
it's a state law
247
00:08:16,262 --> 00:08:17,363
that you have to have a contract
248
00:08:17,363 --> 00:08:19,031
for work, for overseeing,
249
00:08:19,031 --> 00:08:21,067
like work for over $500.
250
00:08:21,067 --> 00:08:21,767
It's probably changed
251
00:08:21,767 --> 00:08:22,802
since then, since then.
252
00:08:22,802 --> 00:08:25,204
But really I did not know that
253
00:08:26,138 --> 00:08:26,639
that was the.
254
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:28,674
Law like in California was a law
255
00:08:29,108 --> 00:08:30,610
at the time is like anything
256
00:08:30,610 --> 00:08:32,111
any work over $500
257
00:08:32,111 --> 00:08:34,380
you need to have a contract for again
258
00:08:34,981 --> 00:08:36,782
we're not attorneys so
259
00:08:36,782 --> 00:08:37,783
take that into account.
260
00:08:39,619 --> 00:08:40,286
And also
261
00:08:40,286 --> 00:08:41,287
you have to have a
262
00:08:41,287 --> 00:08:42,522
you know, you want to have a mechanics
263
00:08:42,522 --> 00:08:43,389
lean, right?
264
00:08:43,389 --> 00:08:44,957
I mean, that's you know, that's
265
00:08:44,957 --> 00:08:46,392
part of the deal, too.
266
00:08:46,392 --> 00:08:49,195
So, you know, our contract had an a
267
00:08:50,062 --> 00:08:53,399
a place for the mechanics lean and also.
268
00:08:53,866 --> 00:08:54,534
Oh, wait a minute
269
00:08:54,534 --> 00:08:57,103
let's let's talk about that
270
00:08:57,103 --> 00:08:58,304
you could do a mechanic's
271
00:08:58,304 --> 00:09:01,140
lean on the contract.
272
00:09:01,140 --> 00:09:03,576
I thought they were separate.
273
00:09:03,576 --> 00:09:05,945
No, ours was right on it.
274
00:09:05,945 --> 00:09:07,980
I mean, a place for them to sign.
275
00:09:08,648 --> 00:09:09,615
And you would said
276
00:09:09,615 --> 00:09:11,450
under the mechanics lean law any contract
277
00:09:11,450 --> 00:09:13,486
your subcontractor, laborer, supplier
278
00:09:13,486 --> 00:09:14,220
or any other person
279
00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:16,022
to help improve your property
280
00:09:16,022 --> 00:09:18,591
but is not paid for his work or supplies
281
00:09:18,858 --> 00:09:19,592
as a right
282
00:09:19,592 --> 00:09:21,594
to enforce a claim against your property.
283
00:09:21,661 --> 00:09:23,095
It's written right on there.
284
00:09:23,095 --> 00:09:24,463
This means that after a court
285
00:09:24,463 --> 00:09:26,232
hearing, your property could be sold
286
00:09:26,232 --> 00:09:27,767
by a court officer
287
00:09:27,767 --> 00:09:29,068
and the proceeds of the sale
288
00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:32,371
will be used to satisfy indebtedness.
289
00:09:32,371 --> 00:09:33,439
This can happen
290
00:09:33,439 --> 00:09:34,440
even if you have paid
291
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,143
your own contractor in full.
292
00:09:37,143 --> 00:09:39,845
If the subcontractor, laborer or supplier
293
00:09:39,912 --> 00:09:42,348
remains unpaid.
294
00:09:42,348 --> 00:09:43,916
Leaving laws provide
295
00:09:43,916 --> 00:09:45,084
for the subcontractor
296
00:09:45,084 --> 00:09:45,718
to obtain
297
00:09:45,718 --> 00:09:46,919
the following information
298
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:49,121
for this contract or proposal is valid,
299
00:09:49,689 --> 00:09:50,456
and then
300
00:09:50,456 --> 00:09:51,657
the general contractors
301
00:09:51,657 --> 00:09:53,125
information, the owner's information
302
00:09:53,125 --> 00:09:54,660
and lender, whoever is involved
303
00:09:56,462 --> 00:09:58,230
in it puts the homeowner on notice
304
00:09:58,230 --> 00:09:58,931
like they said
305
00:09:58,931 --> 00:09:59,298
they could,
306
00:09:59,298 --> 00:10:00,866
you know, and we've all heard the stories
307
00:10:00,866 --> 00:10:01,634
where you
308
00:10:01,634 --> 00:10:02,802
got to get your money to the homeowner.
309
00:10:02,802 --> 00:10:04,737
He goes, Well, I paid the contractor.
310
00:10:04,737 --> 00:10:05,571
I can't help you.
311
00:10:05,571 --> 00:10:06,238
I mean, you know,
312
00:10:06,238 --> 00:10:06,639
yours was
313
00:10:06,639 --> 00:10:07,840
supposed to come out of his and,
314
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,308
you know, you don't have a go.
315
00:10:09,308 --> 00:10:12,211
So, so I think, listen,
316
00:10:12,378 --> 00:10:14,013
one of the best things I ever heard
317
00:10:14,013 --> 00:10:16,682
from a lady in this industry
318
00:10:16,682 --> 00:10:17,283
was that
319
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:19,585
handshakes are great for introductions.
320
00:10:19,585 --> 00:10:22,321
After that, I want a contract,
321
00:10:22,321 --> 00:10:23,956
and I think that makes a lot of sense.
322
00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:24,457
So today
323
00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:26,225
we'll talk about some of these things
324
00:10:26,225 --> 00:10:26,792
and listen,
325
00:10:26,792 --> 00:10:28,160
the contract I had
326
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:29,161
I got from the NLRB,
327
00:10:29,161 --> 00:10:32,298
they like 20 some odd years ago and
328
00:10:32,298 --> 00:10:34,000
I think my wife added a couple of things
329
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,835
to it or whatever. But
330
00:10:37,503 --> 00:10:38,404
on this one, there's
331
00:10:38,404 --> 00:10:40,473
20 different
332
00:10:43,042 --> 00:10:45,311
parts to this contract on the back.
333
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:45,778
And I'm not
334
00:10:45,778 --> 00:10:49,849
going to read all of these 20 things,
335
00:10:49,849 --> 00:10:50,383
but I think
336
00:10:50,383 --> 00:10:51,417
we should go over a few of them.
337
00:10:51,417 --> 00:10:52,652
I think some of these are important
338
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:53,285
and people.
339
00:10:53,285 --> 00:10:55,221
And by the way, if someone's listening,
340
00:10:55,221 --> 00:10:58,824
if someone's listening to this,
341
00:10:58,824 --> 00:11:00,760
if you email me, I'll send it to you
342
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,562
if you like, and you can use none of it,
343
00:11:04,263 --> 00:11:06,065
part of it or all of it.
344
00:11:06,065 --> 00:11:07,266
I don't care, but email me
345
00:11:07,266 --> 00:11:08,401
and I'll send it to you.
346
00:11:08,401 --> 00:11:09,702
My email address is
347
00:11:09,702 --> 00:11:12,571
Wayne that Highlander at Bowen Adcom
348
00:11:13,339 --> 00:11:16,709
it's w a y and E that HGH
349
00:11:17,209 --> 00:11:19,412
lab in the r ebony.com.
350
00:11:20,446 --> 00:11:22,515
I personally my own
351
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:24,383
my own personal opinion is
352
00:11:24,383 --> 00:11:26,085
contracts are very important.
353
00:11:26,085 --> 00:11:27,720
There's too much money on the line.
354
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,655
There's too much room for
355
00:11:31,123 --> 00:11:31,724
a contract,
356
00:11:31,724 --> 00:11:33,092
basically a meeting of the minds
357
00:11:33,092 --> 00:11:33,993
you guys are.
358
00:11:33,993 --> 00:11:34,694
It says it.
359
00:11:34,694 --> 00:11:36,762
We met, we discussed this.
360
00:11:36,762 --> 00:11:38,531
Here's the expected actions.
361
00:11:38,531 --> 00:11:39,331
Here's what I say.
362
00:11:39,331 --> 00:11:41,267
I'm going to do what I'm not going to do.
363
00:11:41,267 --> 00:11:42,535
And by the way,
364
00:11:42,535 --> 00:11:44,670
here's the payment schedule, right?
365
00:11:44,670 --> 00:11:46,372
I mean, I have some things I have to do
366
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:47,907
and there's things that you have to do
367
00:11:47,907 --> 00:11:49,408
and it just lays it out there.
368
00:11:49,408 --> 00:11:51,911
So there's no at the end of the job.
369
00:11:51,911 --> 00:11:53,646
Well, I thought it was going to be this.
370
00:11:53,646 --> 00:11:55,648
And, you know,
371
00:11:55,648 --> 00:11:56,782
there's too much money on the line.
372
00:11:56,782 --> 00:12:00,119
This is this is not.
373
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:01,921
You know, something?
374
00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:02,855
This is terrible.
375
00:12:02,855 --> 00:12:03,522
This is not
376
00:12:03,522 --> 00:12:04,390
what you should be doing
377
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:07,593
to our listeners, because I'm
378
00:12:07,593 --> 00:12:09,028
reading through this contract
379
00:12:09,028 --> 00:12:09,762
and you're oh,
380
00:12:09,762 --> 00:12:11,530
you're everybody's best buddy.
381
00:12:11,530 --> 00:12:12,865
Oh, you're going to
382
00:12:12,865 --> 00:12:14,366
I'll send you this contract.
383
00:12:14,366 --> 00:12:15,067
Let me read
384
00:12:15,067 --> 00:12:16,802
what he's going to send you folks.
385
00:12:16,802 --> 00:12:19,171
Final payment is due upon completion.
386
00:12:19,672 --> 00:12:21,173
Unless an ultimate payment
387
00:12:21,173 --> 00:12:22,842
schedule has been figured out
388
00:12:22,842 --> 00:12:24,410
and arranged
389
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:27,012
and paid to Wayne Highlander.
390
00:12:28,547 --> 00:12:28,914
I need the
391
00:12:28,914 --> 00:12:34,787
money, Rob, what do you want?
392
00:12:34,787 --> 00:12:36,255
The jig is up now.
393
00:12:36,255 --> 00:12:37,656
Yeah, exactly.
394
00:12:37,656 --> 00:12:39,225
This is my exit plan.
395
00:12:39,225 --> 00:12:40,826
Because I'm for the people.
396
00:12:40,826 --> 00:12:41,360
Okay?
397
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,529
I'm a people person.
398
00:12:44,130 --> 00:12:45,664
And make sure you read through this.
399
00:12:45,664 --> 00:12:47,066
This is great.
400
00:12:47,066 --> 00:12:49,335
Let's just a California contract.
401
00:12:49,335 --> 00:12:51,303
Oh, well, I lived in California,
402
00:12:51,303 --> 00:12:52,204
but no, as I said,
403
00:12:52,204 --> 00:12:53,005
I got this
404
00:12:53,005 --> 00:12:54,540
from the guy from the buffet
405
00:12:54,540 --> 00:12:55,741
and then I think my wife
406
00:12:55,741 --> 00:12:57,543
added some stuff on to it. Okay.
407
00:12:57,543 --> 00:12:58,110
Because I'm looking
408
00:12:58,110 --> 00:12:59,512
at the top of this contract
409
00:12:59,512 --> 00:13:00,546
and it says S.l.
410
00:13:00,546 --> 00:13:01,280
So it must have been
411
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,749
your California license contract.
412
00:13:03,749 --> 00:13:04,517
His license.
413
00:13:04,517 --> 00:13:06,519
Contractor's license. Yeah.
414
00:13:06,519 --> 00:13:07,853
Gosh, I forgot about that number.
415
00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:08,521
I haven't seen that number
416
00:13:08,521 --> 00:13:09,321
in a long time.
417
00:13:09,321 --> 00:13:11,824
And I were 8330.
418
00:13:12,358 --> 00:13:13,092
I don't give it out.
419
00:13:13,092 --> 00:13:14,660
People be using it now.
420
00:13:16,395 --> 00:13:17,329
But on
421
00:13:17,329 --> 00:13:17,663
the front of
422
00:13:17,663 --> 00:13:20,432
the contract, it says proposal, contract
423
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,102
as my phone number, my license number.
424
00:13:23,502 --> 00:13:25,271
And it's for
425
00:13:25,271 --> 00:13:27,473
and by the way, it's in triplicate.
426
00:13:28,107 --> 00:13:32,011
And I like that because I could send them
427
00:13:32,745 --> 00:13:34,780
after I wrote the contract up.
428
00:13:35,447 --> 00:13:36,248
It's in triplicate.
429
00:13:36,248 --> 00:13:37,683
So the back page
430
00:13:37,683 --> 00:13:38,884
I would keep in the office
431
00:13:38,884 --> 00:13:40,452
and I never left the office
432
00:13:40,452 --> 00:13:41,120
in case
433
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,922
one of them got missing on a job site
434
00:13:42,922 --> 00:13:43,289
or whatever.
435
00:13:43,289 --> 00:13:44,657
I'd always have the original copy
436
00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:46,525
with a signature on it. Right.
437
00:13:46,525 --> 00:13:48,494
We would put the other one in the mail.
438
00:13:48,494 --> 00:13:49,028
Now, guys,
439
00:13:49,028 --> 00:13:50,329
use email on that kind of stuff,
440
00:13:50,329 --> 00:13:51,197
whatever, where you can deliver it
441
00:13:51,197 --> 00:13:52,865
in person or whatever.
442
00:13:52,865 --> 00:13:53,966
Or this can be probably done
443
00:13:53,966 --> 00:13:55,267
online, I'm sure.
444
00:13:55,267 --> 00:13:56,001
But
445
00:13:57,036 --> 00:13:59,672
then we'd have the architect's name
446
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:00,539
if that was the case.
447
00:14:00,539 --> 00:14:01,740
The job, the location,
448
00:14:01,740 --> 00:14:03,509
the job phone, the date of the plans.
449
00:14:03,509 --> 00:14:05,211
If there's plans we're working off
450
00:14:05,211 --> 00:14:07,146
and then we have the scope of the work
451
00:14:07,146 --> 00:14:09,348
that we're going to do, okay?
452
00:14:09,348 --> 00:14:12,451
And then we put down we're proposing
453
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:14,653
to furnish labor and material,
454
00:14:14,653 --> 00:14:15,254
blah, blah, blah,
455
00:14:15,254 --> 00:14:16,555
and they'd have the sum,
456
00:14:16,555 --> 00:14:17,590
not only the dollar amount,
457
00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:18,858
but we would write it out also,
458
00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:19,725
because that's another area
459
00:14:19,725 --> 00:14:21,360
that because that was that a five or nine
460
00:14:22,461 --> 00:14:23,128
let's be like oh
461
00:14:23,128 --> 00:14:24,463
you're 5100
462
00:14:24,463 --> 00:14:25,931
are you know, you tell me is 5900
463
00:14:25,931 --> 00:14:26,966
is that a nine?
464
00:14:26,966 --> 00:14:29,335
So it has a place you write it out
465
00:14:29,335 --> 00:14:30,436
also like a check.
466
00:14:30,436 --> 00:14:32,671
Write a check. Yeah. Yep.
467
00:14:32,671 --> 00:14:34,473
And then the authorized signatures.
468
00:14:34,473 --> 00:14:35,608
And there is the other thing.
469
00:14:35,608 --> 00:14:37,443
This is very important.
470
00:14:37,543 --> 00:14:40,679
This proposal may be withdrawn for by us,
471
00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:42,982
if not accepted in so many days
472
00:14:43,148 --> 00:14:44,550
or by a date. Okay.
473
00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:45,317
And here's why.
474
00:14:45,317 --> 00:14:46,919
Here's why this is important.
475
00:14:46,919 --> 00:14:48,721
You know, we don't get every job we bid.
476
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:50,456
You might be shocked by that, Rob,
477
00:14:50,456 --> 00:14:52,791
but but we never got every job.
478
00:14:52,791 --> 00:14:53,158
So let's say
479
00:14:53,158 --> 00:14:54,693
I sent this out to somebody in July.
480
00:14:54,693 --> 00:14:55,961
How was your batting average
481
00:14:55,961 --> 00:14:57,263
for getting jobs?
482
00:14:57,263 --> 00:14:58,831
As pretty good.
483
00:14:58,831 --> 00:15:01,300
Yeah, I, i
484
00:15:01,300 --> 00:15:02,835
that was really important to me.
485
00:15:04,003 --> 00:15:05,671
And I did all the estimating
486
00:15:05,671 --> 00:15:07,239
for our company
487
00:15:07,239 --> 00:15:10,276
and I wanted a healthy batting average.
488
00:15:10,276 --> 00:15:11,710
I mean, that's,
489
00:15:11,744 --> 00:15:14,813
I wanted that I was very proud of my,
490
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,682
my batting average.
491
00:15:16,682 --> 00:15:18,817
I was probably and I'm not bragging.
492
00:15:19,218 --> 00:15:20,653
And for some guys that might be,
493
00:15:20,653 --> 00:15:23,022
oh, that's too low.
494
00:15:23,022 --> 00:15:25,658
But I was like eight out of every ten
495
00:15:25,658 --> 00:15:29,595
estimates I got.
496
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:30,462
They're not bragging.
497
00:15:30,462 --> 00:15:32,164
I'm just saying that's me.
498
00:15:32,164 --> 00:15:33,565
No, I'm not.
499
00:15:33,565 --> 00:15:34,867
I know you're not bragging.
500
00:15:34,867 --> 00:15:37,069
My the flip side of that is
501
00:15:37,069 --> 00:15:39,405
that may not be a good thing.
502
00:15:39,405 --> 00:15:40,606
Just throwing it out there.
503
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:42,241
Maybe it was good for me.
504
00:15:42,241 --> 00:15:44,143
It was good for me. Okay. Okay.
505
00:15:44,143 --> 00:15:45,210
Yeah, I slept.
506
00:15:45,210 --> 00:15:46,612
I slept really good at night.
507
00:15:46,612 --> 00:15:48,380
Like, I got a great batting.
508
00:15:48,380 --> 00:15:49,348
And I'm just saying,
509
00:15:49,348 --> 00:15:51,016
if we're talking about this,
510
00:15:51,016 --> 00:15:53,585
you know, for some people
511
00:15:53,585 --> 00:15:54,787
don't think you have to get them all.
512
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:55,888
You don't want them all.
513
00:15:55,888 --> 00:15:56,755
You know, I mean, you know.
514
00:15:56,755 --> 00:15:58,324
Well, don't get me wrong. Though.
515
00:15:58,324 --> 00:16:00,759
I know I was not the cheapest guy I was.
516
00:16:01,527 --> 00:16:02,761
I was actually one of the higher
517
00:16:02,761 --> 00:16:04,463
priced guys. Yeah.
518
00:16:04,463 --> 00:16:05,664
So, you know,
519
00:16:05,664 --> 00:16:07,433
the ones that I wasn't getting,
520
00:16:07,433 --> 00:16:08,233
it was probably that
521
00:16:08,233 --> 00:16:09,601
I really didn't want it.
522
00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:12,338
Yeah, you're very sensitive about this.
523
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:13,072
I see.
524
00:16:13,072 --> 00:16:16,241
Like eight for ten, 8%, but
525
00:16:16,575 --> 00:16:18,143
I was a ballplayer.
526
00:16:18,143 --> 00:16:20,045
Are you being in a home? I'm in the hall.
527
00:16:20,045 --> 00:16:21,780
Maybe you'd be a legend to
528
00:16:24,049 --> 00:16:24,483
so.
529
00:16:24,483 --> 00:16:24,850
So.
530
00:16:24,850 --> 00:16:27,519
But this is important because
531
00:16:27,519 --> 00:16:29,588
and I've actually had this happen before,
532
00:16:29,588 --> 00:16:30,723
where we give a contract
533
00:16:30,723 --> 00:16:32,191
to somebody and two years later
534
00:16:32,191 --> 00:16:33,425
they say, okay, we want to do the work.
535
00:16:33,425 --> 00:16:35,594
Now it's 60 $600.
536
00:16:35,594 --> 00:16:38,831
You know, it's oh, not anymore, you know.
537
00:16:38,831 --> 00:16:40,232
No, no, we have a contract.
538
00:16:40,232 --> 00:16:42,134
I go, yeah, but read the contract.
539
00:16:42,134 --> 00:16:42,768
It says,
540
00:16:42,768 --> 00:16:43,135
if it's not
541
00:16:43,135 --> 00:16:44,903
accepted by such and such date, it's
542
00:16:44,903 --> 00:16:46,772
not valid anymore.
543
00:16:46,939 --> 00:16:48,474
So be aware of that.
544
00:16:48,474 --> 00:16:50,943
And as I said, the mechanics league
545
00:16:51,110 --> 00:16:53,579
and then the gut of it, of the contract
546
00:16:53,579 --> 00:16:55,180
is on the back again.
547
00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:56,515
There's 20 different things on there.
548
00:16:56,515 --> 00:16:57,883
I'm not going to read them all,
549
00:16:57,883 --> 00:16:58,484
but I
550
00:16:58,684 --> 00:16:59,251
will read some
551
00:16:59,251 --> 00:17:03,422
that I think are important.
552
00:17:03,422 --> 00:17:06,258
One is force majeure.
553
00:17:06,258 --> 00:17:08,293
What that what numbers? That one.
554
00:17:08,293 --> 00:17:09,561
Number 12.
555
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:13,165
Number 12.
556
00:17:13,165 --> 00:17:15,567
The delays caused by floods,
557
00:17:15,667 --> 00:17:18,337
strikes, labor disputes, accidents,
558
00:17:18,570 --> 00:17:21,373
acts of God or other causes
559
00:17:21,373 --> 00:17:22,674
beyond the reasonable control
560
00:17:22,674 --> 00:17:24,710
of the seller show
561
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:26,412
excuse or extend the time
562
00:17:26,412 --> 00:17:28,313
for performance of the contract
563
00:17:28,313 --> 00:17:29,581
purchaser has provided
564
00:17:29,581 --> 00:17:31,283
for such property damage insurance
565
00:17:31,283 --> 00:17:33,118
as he or she feels adequate.
566
00:17:33,118 --> 00:17:34,086
I think that's important
567
00:17:35,087 --> 00:17:36,021
just because
568
00:17:36,021 --> 00:17:36,722
things happen,
569
00:17:36,722 --> 00:17:37,923
there's a flood or whatever
570
00:17:37,923 --> 00:17:38,557
and they say, well,
571
00:17:38,557 --> 00:17:39,491
he delayed the job
572
00:17:39,491 --> 00:17:41,427
and there's other trades involved,
573
00:17:41,427 --> 00:17:41,894
you know,
574
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:42,928
especially you listen,
575
00:17:42,928 --> 00:17:44,530
by the way, I did work in California.
576
00:17:44,530 --> 00:17:47,099
You know, it's a very litigious society.
577
00:17:47,099 --> 00:17:50,069
It is big words here today.
578
00:17:50,069 --> 00:17:51,270
Litigious.
579
00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:53,138
But I can do it if I read them.
580
00:17:53,138 --> 00:17:55,374
What's the what's that one again?
581
00:17:55,541 --> 00:17:56,742
Majeure.
582
00:17:56,742 --> 00:17:58,544
Yeah. Force majeure.
583
00:17:58,544 --> 00:18:00,579
Yeah.
584
00:18:00,579 --> 00:18:01,346
Don't try to order
585
00:18:01,346 --> 00:18:02,414
that at the restaurant.
586
00:18:02,414 --> 00:18:03,482
Did you know what that meant
587
00:18:03,482 --> 00:18:04,983
or did you have to look it up?
588
00:18:04,983 --> 00:18:06,385
I knew what it meant.
589
00:18:06,385 --> 00:18:07,419
Of course you did.
590
00:18:07,419 --> 00:18:08,320
I mean, I knew it.
591
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:08,687
That's right.
592
00:18:08,687 --> 00:18:09,788
You're from all over the world.
593
00:18:09,788 --> 00:18:11,156
You've traveled the whole world.
594
00:18:11,156 --> 00:18:15,527
You weren't a force majeure.
595
00:18:15,527 --> 00:18:15,694
No.
596
00:18:15,694 --> 00:18:16,495
Number 13
597
00:18:16,495 --> 00:18:18,931
purchaser agrees to have all work areas
598
00:18:18,931 --> 00:18:19,264
broom
599
00:18:19,264 --> 00:18:20,999
clean and ready for the floor layers
600
00:18:20,999 --> 00:18:23,268
and or finished years when they arrive.
601
00:18:23,268 --> 00:18:25,170
Purchaser also reaches out to 20
602
00:18:25,170 --> 00:18:26,038
volt 30 AMP
603
00:18:26,038 --> 00:18:27,139
Power Bill within 100
604
00:18:27,139 --> 00:18:28,474
feet of the working area via
605
00:18:28,474 --> 00:18:29,808
standard electrical outlet.
606
00:18:30,976 --> 00:18:31,710
Let's put a little bit
607
00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:34,746
onus on them that you guys you're not
608
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:35,147
you know,
609
00:18:35,147 --> 00:18:37,182
you're not breaking into the two boxes
610
00:18:37,182 --> 00:18:38,150
with alligator clips
611
00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:39,751
and that kind of stuff.
612
00:18:39,852 --> 00:18:40,686
So I think that's
613
00:18:40,686 --> 00:18:43,155
we talked about that as important
614
00:18:43,155 --> 00:18:44,389
when I've got to go through quickly
615
00:18:44,389 --> 00:18:45,224
for these.
616
00:18:45,224 --> 00:18:46,592
Let me ask you a question.
617
00:18:46,592 --> 00:18:47,092
Yeah.
618
00:18:47,092 --> 00:18:49,061
On number 13,
619
00:18:49,061 --> 00:18:51,630
having the two 2030 and
620
00:18:51,630 --> 00:18:53,232
what if it was gas, what would you do?
621
00:18:53,232 --> 00:18:54,900
Would you just leave them a pigtail
622
00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:56,735
and say you're going to need a
623
00:18:56,735 --> 00:19:01,173
electrician to hook this up?
624
00:19:01,173 --> 00:19:03,876
Or did you have a guy?
625
00:19:03,942 --> 00:19:05,310
Okay, back in the day.
626
00:19:05,310 --> 00:19:07,479
Okay. I'll be honest with you.
627
00:19:07,546 --> 00:19:10,282
That's okay. We're being honest.
628
00:19:10,282 --> 00:19:12,017
That's it. Good.
629
00:19:12,017 --> 00:19:12,985
Glad you said that.
630
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:13,485
Yeah,
631
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:14,820
we learned old school,
632
00:19:14,820 --> 00:19:15,654
and we did some things
633
00:19:15,654 --> 00:19:16,688
we probably shouldn't have done.
634
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:17,623
I know we shouldn't have done.
635
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:21,493
But we were so damn good at it.
636
00:19:21,493 --> 00:19:23,362
Cracking into a box like an odd
637
00:19:23,362 --> 00:19:24,429
or into a clam.
638
00:19:24,429 --> 00:19:27,065
And that was our thing,
639
00:19:27,065 --> 00:19:29,101
right? We all did it.
640
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:30,602
We're not supposed to.
641
00:19:30,602 --> 00:19:31,470
Oh, my God.
642
00:19:31,470 --> 00:19:33,739
The things I've learned since then.
643
00:19:33,739 --> 00:19:35,574
Yeah, but in all seriousness,
644
00:19:35,574 --> 00:19:36,742
you know, it's.
645
00:19:36,742 --> 00:19:38,043
It's a different world than it is
646
00:19:38,043 --> 00:19:39,611
now, than it was back then.
647
00:19:39,611 --> 00:19:41,680
Rather very litigious.
648
00:19:41,980 --> 00:19:44,550
Yes. Okay.
649
00:19:44,550 --> 00:19:46,318
This is what I like a lot.
650
00:19:46,318 --> 00:19:50,222
What number 15 purchaser is responsible
651
00:19:50,222 --> 00:19:51,490
for providing proper
652
00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:53,225
temperature and humidity
653
00:19:53,225 --> 00:19:55,894
and conditions at the jobsite.
654
00:19:55,894 --> 00:19:58,163
Purchaser is aware that wood products
655
00:19:58,197 --> 00:19:59,298
can be adversely
656
00:19:59,298 --> 00:20:00,699
affected by too little
657
00:20:00,699 --> 00:20:02,401
or too much humidity
658
00:20:02,401 --> 00:20:03,402
and hereby
659
00:20:03,402 --> 00:20:05,971
accepts responsibility for any damage
660
00:20:06,338 --> 00:20:06,872
occurring
661
00:20:06,872 --> 00:20:08,507
as a result of adverse job
662
00:20:08,507 --> 00:20:10,008
site conditions.
663
00:20:10,809 --> 00:20:11,143
Right.
664
00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:12,477
Let's put some of the onus back
665
00:20:12,477 --> 00:20:16,181
on on on the homeowner and the builder.
666
00:20:16,481 --> 00:20:17,216
Okay.
667
00:20:17,749 --> 00:20:19,051
Let jump down.
668
00:20:19,051 --> 00:20:23,755
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
669
00:20:23,755 --> 00:20:26,091
When you said you want to do a contract
670
00:20:26,091 --> 00:20:27,192
show, I was like,
671
00:20:28,627 --> 00:20:30,062
that's going to be pretty
672
00:20:30,062 --> 00:20:36,001
boring, but I like this contract.
673
00:20:36,001 --> 00:20:37,202
That is awesome.
674
00:20:37,202 --> 00:20:39,438
I mean, that one you just read,
675
00:20:39,438 --> 00:20:40,839
I'm going to send this to BOM.
676
00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:42,107
Actually,
677
00:20:42,541 --> 00:20:45,410
I'm going to use this in the schools.
678
00:20:45,410 --> 00:20:46,712
Okay? Yeah.
679
00:20:46,712 --> 00:20:49,248
There's some really great stuff in here,
680
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:51,183
specifically for Wood Floor Guy.
681
00:20:51,183 --> 00:20:52,150
Now, you know,
682
00:20:52,150 --> 00:20:54,820
I hate to give you your due, but
683
00:20:54,820 --> 00:20:56,421
I got to give the devil is due.
684
00:20:56,421 --> 00:20:58,957
This is a really good
685
00:20:58,957 --> 00:21:00,359
wood floor guy contract.
686
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,560
So because so many contract,
687
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,161
I mean the one we used
688
00:21:03,161 --> 00:21:06,198
was just a standard contractor, any guy.
689
00:21:06,198 --> 00:21:06,832
You know what I mean?
690
00:21:06,832 --> 00:21:08,667
Just fill in the blank type
691
00:21:08,667 --> 00:21:11,036
of thing, wood, roofing, whatever.
692
00:21:11,403 --> 00:21:13,739
This is great stuff.
693
00:21:13,739 --> 00:21:14,139
Well, this.
694
00:21:14,139 --> 00:21:16,108
We're working on a napkin
695
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:19,044
at a Dunkin Donuts.
696
00:21:20,312 --> 00:21:21,747
Look at number 19.
697
00:21:21,747 --> 00:21:22,547
Don't be mean.
698
00:21:22,547 --> 00:21:23,181
Now,
699
00:21:23,181 --> 00:21:25,517
I just gave you a pat on the back thing.
700
00:21:25,817 --> 00:21:26,551
Sorry.
701
00:21:26,551 --> 00:21:28,453
I just gave you a pat on the back
702
00:21:28,453 --> 00:21:30,088
and you got to,
703
00:21:30,088 --> 00:21:31,023
you know, saying,
704
00:21:31,023 --> 00:21:32,291
I'm doing my contracts on.
705
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:32,824
I told you
706
00:21:32,824 --> 00:21:35,460
I had a contract that even had a
707
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:37,362
it was only two copies.
708
00:21:37,362 --> 00:21:39,698
Okay. Well, all right.
709
00:21:39,898 --> 00:21:41,300
Number 19.
710
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:43,535
Purchaser is aware that job
711
00:21:43,535 --> 00:21:44,836
site temperature
712
00:21:44,836 --> 00:21:48,173
and moisture conditions may adversely
713
00:21:48,173 --> 00:21:50,208
may adversely affect wood products
714
00:21:50,208 --> 00:21:51,543
and therefore purchase me
715
00:21:51,543 --> 00:21:53,278
expressly agrees
716
00:21:53,278 --> 00:21:55,213
that seller shall not be responsible
717
00:21:55,213 --> 00:21:59,451
for any expansion shrinkage, cupping,
718
00:21:59,885 --> 00:22:02,621
buckling or other reaction of wood
719
00:22:02,621 --> 00:22:04,156
to moisture or dryness
720
00:22:04,156 --> 00:22:06,591
without regard to the size, grade
721
00:22:06,591 --> 00:22:08,960
or previous condition of the material.
722
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,996
Seller shall further not be held
723
00:22:11,797 --> 00:22:13,832
responsible for any type of insect
724
00:22:14,299 --> 00:22:15,067
infestation.
725
00:22:16,201 --> 00:22:17,936
Damp.
726
00:22:17,936 --> 00:22:20,205
Basically, I'm getting paid.
727
00:22:20,205 --> 00:22:21,573
I think I'm there.
728
00:22:21,573 --> 00:22:23,942
You need to tell them, this is great.
729
00:22:24,509 --> 00:22:25,977
I love this.
730
00:22:25,977 --> 00:22:27,112
Let me tell you, that means.
731
00:22:27,112 --> 00:22:28,480
Somewhere on here, though,
732
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:29,047
I would think
733
00:22:29,047 --> 00:22:31,149
if a guy was going to use this now,
734
00:22:32,551 --> 00:22:34,486
you would have to tell them what
735
00:22:34,486 --> 00:22:36,421
the parameters would be
736
00:22:36,421 --> 00:22:37,956
for that moisture range.
737
00:22:37,956 --> 00:22:39,358
Well, let me.
738
00:22:39,358 --> 00:22:39,958
Here or
739
00:22:39,958 --> 00:22:42,060
the relative humidity in the home.
740
00:22:42,060 --> 00:22:44,996
You bring a as a great
741
00:22:44,996 --> 00:22:45,764
that was I just
742
00:22:45,764 --> 00:22:47,532
I brought you down with the napkin
743
00:22:47,532 --> 00:22:48,600
and the Dunkin Donuts.
744
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,635
I'm going to bring you back up.
745
00:22:50,635 --> 00:22:51,536
Okay.
746
00:22:51,703 --> 00:22:53,171
That's an excellent point.
747
00:22:53,171 --> 00:22:55,307
And that's the one thing I've always said
748
00:22:55,307 --> 00:22:56,742
was missing from this contract.
749
00:22:56,742 --> 00:22:59,144
And let me tell you a little story why
750
00:23:00,112 --> 00:23:02,147
I know a fantastic contractor
751
00:23:02,147 --> 00:23:03,815
and I mean a lights out.
752
00:23:03,815 --> 00:23:06,151
Fantastic many generations.
753
00:23:06,151 --> 00:23:07,652
Great reputation.
754
00:23:07,652 --> 00:23:08,653
He did it for for
755
00:23:08,653 --> 00:23:11,523
he did the installation of the floors
756
00:23:11,523 --> 00:23:13,225
and a house for this lady.
757
00:23:13,225 --> 00:23:14,226
Beautiful job.
758
00:23:14,226 --> 00:23:15,127
Thank you very much.
759
00:23:15,127 --> 00:23:16,261
They look extraordinary.
760
00:23:16,261 --> 00:23:18,230
Okay, here's your check.
761
00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:19,831
Everybody's happy
762
00:23:19,865 --> 00:23:20,832
a year later,
763
00:23:20,832 --> 00:23:22,701
calls them up and says, hey,
764
00:23:22,701 --> 00:23:23,969
these floors are buckling.
765
00:23:23,969 --> 00:23:27,072
You need to replace my floors.
766
00:23:27,072 --> 00:23:29,040
He said, Well, is crazy.
767
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,542
I mean, I have measurements.
768
00:23:30,542 --> 00:23:32,411
I take the measurements, I'm blown.
769
00:23:32,411 --> 00:23:33,378
So he went there.
770
00:23:33,378 --> 00:23:34,379
He had the records.
771
00:23:34,379 --> 00:23:35,280
I did all the testing.
772
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:36,915
I'm supposed to do. He went in there.
773
00:23:36,915 --> 00:23:37,816
The floors are,
774
00:23:37,816 --> 00:23:39,818
I mean, really badly cut, right?
775
00:23:39,818 --> 00:23:41,019
A year later.
776
00:23:41,319 --> 00:23:43,388
And he goes, well, I mean,
777
00:23:43,789 --> 00:23:45,390
when did you first start noticing this?
778
00:23:45,390 --> 00:23:46,425
I mean, this is this
779
00:23:46,425 --> 00:23:47,793
this much should not have happened.
780
00:23:47,793 --> 00:23:48,360
I mean, you know,
781
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:49,461
everything conditions were right.
782
00:23:49,461 --> 00:23:50,896
We have to make the wood.
783
00:23:50,896 --> 00:23:52,197
She goes, Well, when we got back,
784
00:23:52,197 --> 00:23:53,365
we don't live in this house.
785
00:23:53,365 --> 00:23:55,066
We have a house in Hawaii
786
00:23:55,066 --> 00:23:56,334
is in California.
787
00:23:56,334 --> 00:23:58,470
And so basically this house set
788
00:23:59,004 --> 00:24:00,872
and occupied for about a year,
789
00:24:01,907 --> 00:24:03,308
the greenhouse effect and everything
790
00:24:03,308 --> 00:24:05,577
that no moisture controls on the floor,
791
00:24:05,977 --> 00:24:07,679
you know, went to hell.
792
00:24:07,679 --> 00:24:10,615
So he's in his mind, he goes, Well, hey,
793
00:24:10,615 --> 00:24:12,050
you got nothing on me.
794
00:24:12,050 --> 00:24:13,418
I mean, you know, she's well,
795
00:24:13,418 --> 00:24:14,019
she didn't do what
796
00:24:14,019 --> 00:24:14,719
she was supposed to do.
797
00:24:14,719 --> 00:24:16,221
I can't help that.
798
00:24:16,221 --> 00:24:17,289
That goes to court.
799
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:19,391
He goes, Well, fine, let's go to court.
800
00:24:19,391 --> 00:24:20,592
He lost.
801
00:24:21,693 --> 00:24:22,260
He lost
802
00:24:22,260 --> 00:24:23,161
because he didn't
803
00:24:23,161 --> 00:24:24,763
have any language in there
804
00:24:24,763 --> 00:24:25,664
to explain to her
805
00:24:25,664 --> 00:24:26,431
and how she needed
806
00:24:26,431 --> 00:24:27,999
to take care of her floor,
807
00:24:27,999 --> 00:24:30,268
where she needed to keep the humidity,
808
00:24:30,302 --> 00:24:31,203
you know, within
809
00:24:31,203 --> 00:24:33,672
35 to 55% and all that stuff.
810
00:24:33,672 --> 00:24:35,340
It was no clause in there.
811
00:24:35,340 --> 00:24:36,308
And so you're right.
812
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:37,976
And that was what was missing
813
00:24:37,976 --> 00:24:39,177
from this contract.
814
00:24:39,177 --> 00:24:40,245
Also,
815
00:24:40,312 --> 00:24:41,746
when I heard that story,
816
00:24:41,746 --> 00:24:43,281
I thought, man, that's a
817
00:24:43,281 --> 00:24:44,115
that's pretty shocking.
818
00:24:44,115 --> 00:24:45,183
And the guy went into the court
819
00:24:45,183 --> 00:24:47,652
with all companies in the world,
820
00:24:47,652 --> 00:24:49,855
Oh, I have to buy that floor.
821
00:24:49,855 --> 00:24:50,956
No, that's great.
822
00:24:50,956 --> 00:24:52,224
I tell you, this is super.
823
00:24:52,224 --> 00:24:53,892
And I right now, that's
824
00:24:53,892 --> 00:24:56,161
the only thing that I'd add to that.
825
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:57,329
Just give me.
826
00:24:57,562 --> 00:24:59,731
As I said, there's like 20 things on here
827
00:24:59,731 --> 00:25:00,866
and I won't go through them all.
828
00:25:00,866 --> 00:25:02,968
I will read number 20.
829
00:25:02,968 --> 00:25:04,503
Would you like to read number 20?
830
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,137
Maybe. I'm not talking.
831
00:25:06,137 --> 00:25:07,239
Let me go.
832
00:25:07,239 --> 00:25:08,807
Oh, all right. I'll do it. Okay.
833
00:25:09,841 --> 00:25:11,276
I got my glasses off.
834
00:25:11,276 --> 00:25:12,811
I'm going to see if I can spread this.
835
00:25:12,811 --> 00:25:14,846
Make purchaser is aware
836
00:25:14,846 --> 00:25:16,948
that sanding of wood products
837
00:25:16,948 --> 00:25:17,482
will create
838
00:25:17,482 --> 00:25:20,619
fine dust in the air, and purchaser
839
00:25:21,186 --> 00:25:23,088
has taken such precautions
840
00:25:23,088 --> 00:25:25,323
as he or she feels adequate
841
00:25:25,323 --> 00:25:27,292
to protect the surrounding area
842
00:25:27,292 --> 00:25:28,894
from such dust
843
00:25:28,894 --> 00:25:32,063
seller shall not be held responsible
844
00:25:32,297 --> 00:25:33,798
for or any damage
845
00:25:33,798 --> 00:25:35,800
resulting from the dust,
846
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,303
nor shall seller be responsible
847
00:25:38,537 --> 00:25:40,872
to clean up such dust.
848
00:25:41,473 --> 00:25:43,708
Now, having said that.
849
00:25:43,708 --> 00:25:45,510
That's a scary one.
850
00:25:45,510 --> 00:25:47,245
Having said that,
851
00:25:47,245 --> 00:25:48,880
you know, obviously, you know,
852
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:49,915
we use that as containment.
853
00:25:49,915 --> 00:25:50,682
We do all these things.
854
00:25:50,682 --> 00:25:52,651
You know, you have these conversation.
855
00:25:52,651 --> 00:25:53,251
Right.
856
00:25:53,318 --> 00:25:55,020
But look at all the electronics
857
00:25:55,020 --> 00:25:55,687
that are out there.
858
00:25:55,687 --> 00:25:56,354
Look at this,
859
00:25:56,354 --> 00:25:58,557
the price of the TVs and computers
860
00:25:58,557 --> 00:25:59,157
and all that stuff.
861
00:25:59,157 --> 00:26:00,425
And if someone was to come to you
862
00:26:00,425 --> 00:26:01,092
and say,
863
00:26:01,092 --> 00:26:03,061
well, my computer doesn't work now
864
00:26:03,061 --> 00:26:04,095
or whatever, it doesn't work.
865
00:26:04,095 --> 00:26:04,763
And I think it's
866
00:26:04,763 --> 00:26:05,997
because the dust of you guys
867
00:26:05,997 --> 00:26:07,432
being on the job,
868
00:26:07,432 --> 00:26:08,066
nice to be able
869
00:26:08,066 --> 00:26:09,334
to have something, right
870
00:26:09,334 --> 00:26:11,069
in defense of yourself.
871
00:26:11,069 --> 00:26:12,704
Hmm. I just.
872
00:26:12,704 --> 00:26:14,806
You know, I'd leave that in
873
00:26:14,806 --> 00:26:16,808
if you're using dust containment.
874
00:26:16,808 --> 00:26:19,110
And then I'd mentioned, you know, I also.
875
00:26:19,110 --> 00:26:20,145
Yeah, that's in there.
876
00:26:20,145 --> 00:26:21,513
If somebody want to mention it.
877
00:26:21,513 --> 00:26:22,781
But don't worry,
878
00:26:22,781 --> 00:26:23,782
I'm going to drape things
879
00:26:23,782 --> 00:26:26,217
anyways and I'm going to have
880
00:26:26,551 --> 00:26:27,752
I have dust containment.
881
00:26:27,752 --> 00:26:29,521
But no, you're right.
882
00:26:29,521 --> 00:26:30,822
You got to have something in there
883
00:26:30,822 --> 00:26:33,291
like that. How about number 16?
884
00:26:34,292 --> 00:26:35,594
Purchaser accepts
885
00:26:35,594 --> 00:26:37,562
responsibility for materials
886
00:26:37,562 --> 00:26:38,730
delivered to job
887
00:26:38,730 --> 00:26:41,166
site in good order by seller
888
00:26:41,166 --> 00:26:42,300
or his suppliers
889
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:42,934
and agrees
890
00:26:42,934 --> 00:26:43,969
to provide protection
891
00:26:43,969 --> 00:26:45,170
against death and damage
892
00:26:45,170 --> 00:26:46,972
from the elements.
893
00:26:46,972 --> 00:26:48,840
So we dropped off 2000
894
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,141
square feet in your house.
895
00:26:50,141 --> 00:26:52,911
It's mysteriously gone next week.
896
00:26:53,478 --> 00:26:53,878
All right.
897
00:26:53,878 --> 00:26:54,713
Well,
898
00:26:54,913 --> 00:26:56,948
this in the contract states
899
00:26:56,948 --> 00:26:58,984
that you're responsible for it, right.
900
00:26:58,984 --> 00:27:00,652
And because I walked off the job,
901
00:27:00,652 --> 00:27:02,053
there's and again,
902
00:27:02,053 --> 00:27:04,155
listen, I lived in a real world.
903
00:27:04,155 --> 00:27:06,524
Will, this is this bulletproof?
904
00:27:06,524 --> 00:27:07,926
I mean, you know,
905
00:27:07,926 --> 00:27:09,294
anybody can do anything, right?
906
00:27:09,294 --> 00:27:10,862
I mean, they just lay on my pay.
907
00:27:10,862 --> 00:27:12,530
They may not have the money to pay you
908
00:27:12,530 --> 00:27:13,598
or whatever.
909
00:27:13,598 --> 00:27:15,734
But I just think that
910
00:27:15,734 --> 00:27:17,869
I say many times on this podcast,
911
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:19,738
if you look at the amount of things
912
00:27:19,738 --> 00:27:20,505
that you have going on
913
00:27:20,505 --> 00:27:22,440
your side of the equation,
914
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:23,708
and if you look at the amount of things
915
00:27:23,708 --> 00:27:25,010
going against you
916
00:27:25,010 --> 00:27:26,511
that can go wrong or that,
917
00:27:26,511 --> 00:27:27,345
you know, can cause you
918
00:27:27,345 --> 00:27:29,180
not to get paid or delayed on a job,
919
00:27:29,180 --> 00:27:30,215
the more things you can put on
920
00:27:30,215 --> 00:27:31,583
your side of the equation,
921
00:27:31,583 --> 00:27:32,884
the better
922
00:27:32,884 --> 00:27:34,953
it allows you to sleep at night.
923
00:27:34,953 --> 00:27:36,988
I'm going to read the top of this
924
00:27:36,988 --> 00:27:39,424
of this contract on the back page to
925
00:27:39,424 --> 00:27:40,825
which is underlined in bold
926
00:27:40,825 --> 00:27:42,360
at the top of this,
927
00:27:42,527 --> 00:27:43,695
the terms and conditions
928
00:27:43,695 --> 00:27:45,563
outlined on this preprinted page
929
00:27:45,563 --> 00:27:47,265
have been reviewed and agreed
930
00:27:47,265 --> 00:27:48,633
by both parties.
931
00:27:48,633 --> 00:27:49,834
I had to sign the contract.
932
00:27:49,834 --> 00:27:51,369
Both parties understand and agree
933
00:27:51,369 --> 00:27:52,537
to be bound
934
00:27:52,537 --> 00:27:54,572
by each of the paragraph you're within.
935
00:27:55,507 --> 00:27:56,241
Okay.
936
00:27:56,274 --> 00:27:57,108
So
937
00:27:57,976 --> 00:27:59,978
you know, is a lot of good stuff here.
938
00:27:59,978 --> 00:28:02,747
It's just it's designed to,
939
00:28:02,747 --> 00:28:03,882
you know, there's like I said, there's
940
00:28:03,882 --> 00:28:05,817
so much on the line these days and,
941
00:28:05,817 --> 00:28:07,185
you know, especially with
942
00:28:07,185 --> 00:28:10,655
with the, you know.
943
00:28:10,655 --> 00:28:11,890
Litigious society
944
00:28:11,890 --> 00:28:13,391
that we live in nowadays.
945
00:28:13,391 --> 00:28:14,192
Yeah.
946
00:28:14,192 --> 00:28:16,361
And, you know, there's, there's, there's.
947
00:28:16,361 --> 00:28:17,262
There's a
948
00:28:18,163 --> 00:28:20,832
limit to try and slip that in tonight.
949
00:28:21,499 --> 00:28:23,902
When I'm talking to Pauline at dinner.
950
00:28:23,902 --> 00:28:25,870
The litigious society.
951
00:28:25,870 --> 00:28:27,272
I might try to slip something
952
00:28:27,272 --> 00:28:30,408
into, you know,
953
00:28:30,542 --> 00:28:31,876
what's that litigious thing?
954
00:28:31,876 --> 00:28:33,478
What was that other thing?
955
00:28:33,478 --> 00:28:34,713
Force majeure.
956
00:28:34,713 --> 00:28:36,581
Yeah. Major,
957
00:28:36,715 --> 00:28:38,016
I don't know if I can slip that one
958
00:28:38,016 --> 00:28:39,784
in, but I'll.
959
00:28:39,784 --> 00:28:41,386
I'll do the litigious.
960
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:42,721
Told him to get the first sentence.
961
00:28:42,721 --> 00:28:44,923
Sentence. Rob try it. One whole sentence.
962
00:28:45,156 --> 00:28:45,857
Yeah.
963
00:28:45,857 --> 00:28:47,325
Using them both.
964
00:28:47,325 --> 00:28:49,160
Boy, if you don't watch out on that force
965
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,563
majeure thing, you could end up in a very
966
00:28:52,664 --> 00:28:54,466
litigious situation.
967
00:28:54,466 --> 00:28:55,233
There you go.
968
00:28:55,233 --> 00:28:59,237
You said, oh, oh.
969
00:28:59,637 --> 00:29:01,406
Oh, boy.
970
00:29:01,406 --> 00:29:03,108
I didn't even have to write that down
971
00:29:03,108 --> 00:29:04,008
as a note.
972
00:29:04,008 --> 00:29:06,377
Number three, so arbitration.
973
00:29:06,411 --> 00:29:07,312
We.
974
00:29:07,846 --> 00:29:10,081
Should arbitration or lawsuit be brought
975
00:29:10,081 --> 00:29:11,416
by either party
976
00:29:11,416 --> 00:29:13,351
to enforce the terms of this contract
977
00:29:13,351 --> 00:29:15,453
or any dispute arising out of it.
978
00:29:15,453 --> 00:29:17,355
The prevailing party shall be entitled
979
00:29:17,355 --> 00:29:19,090
to reasonable attorney fees.
980
00:29:19,090 --> 00:29:20,725
Here's why that's important.
981
00:29:20,725 --> 00:29:21,760
And actually, this is a
982
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:22,761
there was a contractor,
983
00:29:22,761 --> 00:29:24,963
a general contractor in California
984
00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:25,864
that the
985
00:29:25,864 --> 00:29:26,131
you know,
986
00:29:26,131 --> 00:29:26,831
the courts are so
987
00:29:26,831 --> 00:29:27,999
booked up in San Francisco,
988
00:29:27,999 --> 00:29:29,400
they're so far behind
989
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,070
that he was notorious for not paying.
990
00:29:33,004 --> 00:29:34,773
Now he he would tell you
991
00:29:34,773 --> 00:29:36,007
and he's going to pay you
992
00:29:36,007 --> 00:29:36,875
what he's going to be a year
993
00:29:36,875 --> 00:29:38,576
before you get your money,
994
00:29:38,576 --> 00:29:40,245
I assume if you want.
995
00:29:40,245 --> 00:29:42,180
But it takes that long before
996
00:29:42,180 --> 00:29:44,182
it goes through court. Right.
997
00:29:44,182 --> 00:29:45,884
Wage money
998
00:29:45,884 --> 00:29:48,153
so, you know, at least this way, if
999
00:29:48,319 --> 00:29:49,788
if somebody sues you for something
1000
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:51,723
that's completely ridiculous, whatever.
1001
00:29:51,723 --> 00:29:52,791
You know what I mean?
1002
00:29:52,791 --> 00:29:53,691
And you have to spend
1003
00:29:53,691 --> 00:29:55,026
you're putting out all this money
1004
00:29:55,026 --> 00:29:55,960
to go to court
1005
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:56,661
at least
1006
00:29:56,661 --> 00:29:58,329
there's a provision here for that.
1007
00:29:58,329 --> 00:29:59,564
He would have to pay your feed,
1008
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:00,565
he or she.
1009
00:30:00,565 --> 00:30:02,333
If they were. If you were right.
1010
00:30:03,501 --> 00:30:04,235
That's what I'm saying.
1011
00:30:04,235 --> 00:30:05,837
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1012
00:30:05,837 --> 00:30:06,704
So again,
1013
00:30:06,704 --> 00:30:08,072
I won't go through all of these.
1014
00:30:08,072 --> 00:30:10,141
You can email me again,
1015
00:30:10,141 --> 00:30:12,043
happily, happily, send it to you
1016
00:30:12,043 --> 00:30:13,077
if you like.
1017
00:30:14,112 --> 00:30:14,879
And that,
1018
00:30:14,879 --> 00:30:16,981
you know, folks, I would definitely
1019
00:30:17,715 --> 00:30:19,951
I would definitely take a look at this.
1020
00:30:20,485 --> 00:30:22,587
If you do, you're just using
1021
00:30:22,587 --> 00:30:23,655
like a standard
1022
00:30:23,655 --> 00:30:24,923
operator contract
1023
00:30:24,923 --> 00:30:26,658
that you get down at
1024
00:30:26,658 --> 00:30:28,092
Staples or something.
1025
00:30:28,092 --> 00:30:29,727
I would definitely take a look at this
1026
00:30:29,727 --> 00:30:31,596
that Wiens offer an up there
1027
00:30:31,596 --> 00:30:32,197
because there is
1028
00:30:32,197 --> 00:30:33,064
some I'm
1029
00:30:33,064 --> 00:30:34,065
just kind of reading through there
1030
00:30:34,065 --> 00:30:36,467
some great stuff this is really
1031
00:30:36,467 --> 00:30:37,402
and you said you got this
1032
00:30:37,402 --> 00:30:38,970
from the NWFP or parts of.
1033
00:30:38,970 --> 00:30:42,540
This is about 25 years ago or more.
1034
00:30:42,540 --> 00:30:44,309
This is really something.
1035
00:30:44,309 --> 00:30:46,110
And we made some changes to it.
1036
00:30:46,110 --> 00:30:47,612
But and again,
1037
00:30:47,612 --> 00:30:49,347
I'm going to say for the third time,
1038
00:30:49,347 --> 00:30:50,982
Rob and I are not attorneys.
1039
00:30:52,183 --> 00:30:53,484
You you
1040
00:30:53,484 --> 00:30:55,186
know, you use your own discretion.
1041
00:30:55,186 --> 00:30:56,521
I'm telling you, I'm starting
1042
00:30:56,521 --> 00:30:57,355
to feel like one
1043
00:30:57,355 --> 00:30:58,857
reading this stuff, that force
1044
00:30:58,857 --> 00:31:00,758
majeure stuff. Yeah.
1045
00:31:00,758 --> 00:31:01,626
Yeah.
1046
00:31:01,626 --> 00:31:02,093
You're telling me
1047
00:31:02,093 --> 00:31:06,030
after three tries, it's.
1048
00:31:06,030 --> 00:31:07,765
Hey, did you ever end up join
1049
00:31:07,765 --> 00:31:08,733
in that gym?
1050
00:31:08,733 --> 00:31:13,538
I did, despite my disdain for that guy.
1051
00:31:13,538 --> 00:31:15,607
That said, I qualify for silversneakers.
1052
00:31:15,607 --> 00:31:17,141
I did. I took the discount.
1053
00:31:17,141 --> 00:31:18,243
I wasn't too proud for that.
1054
00:31:18,243 --> 00:31:19,310
And I did join.
1055
00:31:19,310 --> 00:31:21,212
Are you. Lifting?
1056
00:31:21,212 --> 00:31:22,580
No, I'm not lifting right now.
1057
00:31:22,580 --> 00:31:23,848
I am right now.
1058
00:31:23,848 --> 00:31:26,017
I'm doing the treadmill.
1059
00:31:26,017 --> 00:31:27,018
I'm not lifting it.
1060
00:31:27,018 --> 00:31:30,154
I don't know if I ever will because
1061
00:31:30,154 --> 00:31:33,258
it's a long road back to the top lifting.
1062
00:31:33,258 --> 00:31:33,658
So I don't know
1063
00:31:33,658 --> 00:31:34,792
if I'm going to go down that road, but
1064
00:31:34,792 --> 00:31:35,493
I'll tell you what I do.
1065
00:31:36,527 --> 00:31:38,763
I'm on day three now
1066
00:31:39,631 --> 00:31:41,065
and I've
1067
00:31:41,065 --> 00:31:42,667
been going to gym at 530 in the morning.
1068
00:31:42,667 --> 00:31:44,636
I hate the treadmill,
1069
00:31:44,636 --> 00:31:45,904
but I you know, you got to move, right?
1070
00:31:45,904 --> 00:31:46,971
So I do the treadmill,
1071
00:31:46,971 --> 00:31:48,473
I do the bicycle,
1072
00:31:48,473 --> 00:31:50,475
and I do this elliptical thing.
1073
00:31:50,475 --> 00:31:53,044
And so, you know,
1074
00:31:53,044 --> 00:31:56,514
I like all kinds of music, right?
1075
00:31:56,514 --> 00:31:57,949
But when I'm working out
1076
00:31:57,949 --> 00:31:59,150
on the treadmill monotonous
1077
00:31:59,150 --> 00:32:00,318
and I hate, you know, it's just like,
1078
00:32:00,318 --> 00:32:01,686
you know, it's just monotonous thing.
1079
00:32:01,686 --> 00:32:02,954
So I want upbeat music,
1080
00:32:02,954 --> 00:32:05,123
like fast pace music, right?
1081
00:32:05,123 --> 00:32:07,558
So I've been listening to a band called
1082
00:32:07,692 --> 00:32:10,828
Blue Dogs B D OS.
1083
00:32:11,562 --> 00:32:13,131
Who knows?
1084
00:32:13,131 --> 00:32:14,165
The Bluetooth band.
1085
00:32:14,165 --> 00:32:16,267
It's an American big band.
1086
00:32:16,267 --> 00:32:18,303
They describe their sound is like, well,
1087
00:32:18,303 --> 00:32:21,673
they describe it as doom rock, afro soul
1088
00:32:21,673 --> 00:32:24,175
band with a seventies touch base.
1089
00:32:24,709 --> 00:32:25,610
It's a big sound.
1090
00:32:25,610 --> 00:32:27,512
It's a big band, like a lot of words,
1091
00:32:27,512 --> 00:32:29,580
a lot of a lot of instruments.
1092
00:32:29,580 --> 00:32:32,850
And it fuzes like Afro funk and seventies
1093
00:32:32,850 --> 00:32:34,052
hard rock and 60
1094
00:32:34,052 --> 00:32:35,553
soul music all into one, right?
1095
00:32:36,554 --> 00:32:37,088
So as
1096
00:32:37,088 --> 00:32:38,990
I'm as I'm on the treadmill, I put my
1097
00:32:38,990 --> 00:32:40,124
I listen to Pandora,
1098
00:32:40,124 --> 00:32:40,525
you know,
1099
00:32:40,525 --> 00:32:41,592
I don't have to pay Apple
1100
00:32:41,592 --> 00:32:42,226
Apple music
1101
00:32:42,226 --> 00:32:42,894
like you do or
1102
00:32:42,894 --> 00:32:43,861
I don't
1103
00:32:44,295 --> 00:32:45,196
get on Pandora
1104
00:32:45,196 --> 00:32:46,731
and I put it on the station.
1105
00:32:46,731 --> 00:32:48,366
The problem is
1106
00:32:48,366 --> 00:32:49,867
the station recognizes
1107
00:32:49,867 --> 00:32:51,836
it as big band music.
1108
00:32:51,836 --> 00:32:53,638
So once in a while
1109
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:54,672
it'll slip in a Frank
1110
00:32:54,672 --> 00:32:56,941
Sinatra song or a Glenn Miller
1111
00:32:56,941 --> 00:32:59,744
song, you know, Glenn Miller Orchestra.
1112
00:32:59,744 --> 00:33:02,246
I love that kind of I love that music.
1113
00:33:03,414 --> 00:33:05,750
One Miller that's got some good music.
1114
00:33:06,184 --> 00:33:08,386
Yeah, that's good. I like that stuff.
1115
00:33:08,386 --> 00:33:09,887
I agree. But here's the thing.
1116
00:33:09,887 --> 00:33:11,255
It got in my head, right?
1117
00:33:11,255 --> 00:33:12,323
So I'm listening.
1118
00:33:12,323 --> 00:33:14,726
So Glenn Miller in the Mood comes on.
1119
00:33:14,726 --> 00:33:16,894
You know, I don't mind my music is loud.
1120
00:33:17,328 --> 00:33:19,597
It's you know, I like my music loud.
1121
00:33:19,597 --> 00:33:22,100
And all of a sudden you have to go off
1122
00:33:22,100 --> 00:33:22,433
that, you
1123
00:33:22,433 --> 00:33:23,501
know, Bhutto's
1124
00:33:23,501 --> 00:33:25,603
man is cranking is fast, bass is cool.
1125
00:33:26,237 --> 00:33:28,606
And then when Glenn
1126
00:33:28,606 --> 00:33:31,209
Miller comes on in In the Mood,
1127
00:33:31,209 --> 00:33:32,977
which came out in 1939,
1128
00:33:32,977 --> 00:33:34,212
now the reason why it bugged me,
1129
00:33:34,212 --> 00:33:35,546
because I'm already weirded out
1130
00:33:35,546 --> 00:33:37,015
about the silversneakers being right
1131
00:33:38,016 --> 00:33:39,117
now
1132
00:33:39,751 --> 00:33:41,085
I'm thinking Silversneakers
1133
00:33:41,085 --> 00:33:42,186
because it's bugged me for like
1134
00:33:42,186 --> 00:33:43,621
two weeks now.
1135
00:33:43,621 --> 00:33:45,456
I listened to the Glenn Miller.
1136
00:33:45,456 --> 00:33:47,959
And now Glenn Miller is is blaring
1137
00:33:47,959 --> 00:33:49,060
and then I'm self-conscious
1138
00:33:49,060 --> 00:33:51,062
that the do next to no good.
1139
00:33:51,062 --> 00:33:55,700
Da da da da da da da da da da da
1140
00:33:56,334 --> 00:33:59,404
da da da.
1141
00:33:59,437 --> 00:34:00,104
Oh, yeah.
1142
00:34:00,104 --> 00:34:02,640
I can see that it just destroying you.
1143
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:03,074
Yeah.
1144
00:34:03,074 --> 00:34:04,342
So I got my,
1145
00:34:04,342 --> 00:34:05,576
I got the things said,
1146
00:34:05,576 --> 00:34:07,445
I got the treadmill set the rocket ship.
1147
00:34:07,445 --> 00:34:08,046
Right?
1148
00:34:08,046 --> 00:34:11,082
I mean, I'm blaring and and I've got,
1149
00:34:12,016 --> 00:34:14,085
you know, what's the name in the mood?
1150
00:34:14,252 --> 00:34:16,387
Glenn Miller in the mood comes on and
1151
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:19,157
it's a combination man.
1152
00:34:19,157 --> 00:34:20,491
Then I get so.
1153
00:34:20,491 --> 00:34:21,092
Oh.
1154
00:34:21,159 --> 00:34:23,327
Whoa, whoa, whoa, back up a second.
1155
00:34:23,327 --> 00:34:26,497
You set your treadmill to rocket ship,
1156
00:34:26,497 --> 00:34:26,931
you said.
1157
00:34:27,965 --> 00:34:30,034
Yeah, I mean, in my mind, a rocket ship.
1158
00:34:30,034 --> 00:34:31,002
But on the actual thing,
1159
00:34:31,002 --> 00:34:33,271
it says like 3.2 miles an hour. Right.
1160
00:34:33,304 --> 00:34:35,073
But you know.
1161
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,474
You're a rocket, I guess.
1162
00:34:36,474 --> 00:34:38,009
But it's not just about the speed round.
1163
00:34:38,009 --> 00:34:39,577
These things are the incline, right?
1164
00:34:39,577 --> 00:34:40,378
So I have that said,
1165
00:34:40,378 --> 00:34:41,913
I'm like Mount McKinley,
1166
00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:43,781
so I want 3.2 miles an hour.
1167
00:34:43,781 --> 00:34:45,683
But I got the up.
1168
00:34:45,683 --> 00:34:47,752
So your silver slippers, they,
1169
00:34:47,752 --> 00:34:49,520
they got to be like a blur
1170
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,556
or you silver sneakers.
1171
00:34:51,556 --> 00:34:54,425
Then they're on fire, right?
1172
00:34:54,725 --> 00:34:56,594
So so listen.
1173
00:34:56,594 --> 00:34:58,096
So you're
1174
00:34:58,563 --> 00:35:01,065
got the silver sneakers are just blazing,
1175
00:35:01,165 --> 00:35:01,866
right?
1176
00:35:01,866 --> 00:35:02,600
Silver set
1177
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,301
Glenn Miller
1178
00:35:03,301 --> 00:35:04,268
Orchestra playing
1179
00:35:04,268 --> 00:35:05,436
blade my head so loud
1180
00:35:05,436 --> 00:35:07,271
do around me can hear it.
1181
00:35:07,271 --> 00:35:08,439
And at that point
1182
00:35:08,439 --> 00:35:09,640
though, you know, now I'm like,
1183
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,008
I'm into this
1184
00:35:11,008 --> 00:35:12,276
treadmill for like two and a half,
1185
00:35:12,276 --> 00:35:13,411
3 minutes,
1186
00:35:13,411 --> 00:35:14,412
and all the kinks are starting
1187
00:35:14,412 --> 00:35:15,213
to come out, right?
1188
00:35:15,213 --> 00:35:15,646
You know, the,
1189
00:35:15,646 --> 00:35:16,280
you know, like the
1190
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:16,581
you know,
1191
00:35:16,581 --> 00:35:18,015
the little pains are starting to go away.
1192
00:35:18,015 --> 00:35:18,616
I'm starting to get
1193
00:35:18,616 --> 00:35:20,051
a little bit of a sweat going.
1194
00:35:20,051 --> 00:35:21,819
Yes, you're starting to juice up.
1195
00:35:21,819 --> 00:35:23,821
Yeah, yeah. And I'm starting to feel it.
1196
00:35:24,322 --> 00:35:24,722
And I
1197
00:35:24,722 --> 00:35:26,290
and I've read about it
1198
00:35:26,290 --> 00:35:27,225
and I've heard about it
1199
00:35:27,225 --> 00:35:27,992
from other people.
1200
00:35:28,926 --> 00:35:30,228
And it's starting to happen.
1201
00:35:30,228 --> 00:35:32,230
I'm fixing to catch it. Runner's high.
1202
00:35:32,230 --> 00:35:33,898
And all of a sudden this guy,
1203
00:35:33,898 --> 00:35:35,366
this dude is like two treadmills
1204
00:35:35,366 --> 00:35:37,068
and I'm watching the game on TV
1205
00:35:37,068 --> 00:35:38,269
and I'm not listening to all this.
1206
00:35:38,269 --> 00:35:39,070
I got my headphones on,
1207
00:35:39,070 --> 00:35:40,404
but I'm watching the game,
1208
00:35:40,404 --> 00:35:43,741
you know, is and I'm in my groove.
1209
00:35:44,742 --> 00:35:46,110
And this punk,
1210
00:35:46,110 --> 00:35:47,912
there's two treadmills away from me,
1211
00:35:47,912 --> 00:35:50,848
arbitrarily turns the channel.
1212
00:35:50,882 --> 00:35:53,184
So it kind of messed up my whole.
1213
00:35:53,184 --> 00:35:55,353
How old was this young punk?
1214
00:35:55,353 --> 00:35:56,621
Oh, yeah.
1215
00:35:56,621 --> 00:35:57,755
Early fifties.
1216
00:35:57,755 --> 00:36:00,558
Yeah.
1217
00:36:00,558 --> 00:36:02,760
And it reminds me of what I hated gyms.
1218
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:03,895
And, you know, all these years
1219
00:36:03,895 --> 00:36:05,463
of going to gyms, man.
1220
00:36:05,463 --> 00:36:05,930
And, you know,
1221
00:36:05,930 --> 00:36:06,998
somebody would be on a cell phone
1222
00:36:06,998 --> 00:36:08,699
talking or, you know, that kind of crap.
1223
00:36:08,699 --> 00:36:10,101
So what I'm getting there,
1224
00:36:10,101 --> 00:36:11,869
man, it's, you know, I've since day three
1225
00:36:12,837 --> 00:36:13,905
even did a few pushups.
1226
00:36:13,905 --> 00:36:15,106
I said, I'm not lifting,
1227
00:36:15,106 --> 00:36:16,941
but I started doing pushups again.
1228
00:36:16,941 --> 00:36:18,843
And, you know, so I.
1229
00:36:18,843 --> 00:36:20,845
Feel as strong again as I feel
1230
00:36:21,112 --> 00:36:21,979
I'm starting. To feel.
1231
00:36:21,979 --> 00:36:24,081
Yeah, I have. Boy, yeah.
1232
00:36:24,582 --> 00:36:25,416
You've been sitting around
1233
00:36:25,416 --> 00:36:26,083
for eight months.
1234
00:36:26,083 --> 00:36:27,251
You got to do something, man.
1235
00:36:27,251 --> 00:36:28,119
Yeah, yeah, that's the thing.
1236
00:36:28,119 --> 00:36:29,220
I got excuses now
1237
00:36:29,220 --> 00:36:31,856
because I got to do something.
1238
00:36:31,856 --> 00:36:33,991
I, you know, you travel
1239
00:36:33,991 --> 00:36:34,392
and it's hard
1240
00:36:34,392 --> 00:36:35,726
doing hotels and stuff like that.
1241
00:36:35,726 --> 00:36:36,327
But I'm home now.
1242
00:36:36,327 --> 00:36:37,428
I've got no excuses lab.
1243
00:36:37,428 --> 00:36:38,863
So now I got to do something.
1244
00:36:38,863 --> 00:36:41,399
So I'm happy about that.
1245
00:36:41,399 --> 00:36:44,101
So contract, we hope this helps somebody
1246
00:36:45,303 --> 00:36:46,504
or, you know, be safe.
1247
00:36:46,504 --> 00:36:47,605
And there are people out there
1248
00:36:47,605 --> 00:36:50,374
say, listen, and I am absolutely 100%
1249
00:36:50,374 --> 00:36:51,642
I think good contractors
1250
00:36:51,642 --> 00:36:52,476
have been around for
1251
00:36:52,476 --> 00:36:53,945
30 or 40 years and say
1252
00:36:54,912 --> 00:36:56,214
we don't use contracts.
1253
00:36:56,214 --> 00:36:57,181
I mean, the guys guy's
1254
00:36:57,248 --> 00:36:58,449
not going to pay me.
1255
00:36:58,883 --> 00:36:59,350
You know,
1256
00:36:59,350 --> 00:37:01,552
in this litigious society that we live
1257
00:37:01,552 --> 00:37:03,754
in, you've got to use contracts. Now.
1258
00:37:04,288 --> 00:37:05,590
I have to tell this story,
1259
00:37:05,590 --> 00:37:06,624
and it would be our last story
1260
00:37:06,624 --> 00:37:07,491
on this podcast,
1261
00:37:07,491 --> 00:37:08,526
and I think I've told him before,
1262
00:37:08,526 --> 00:37:09,827
but it's a damn good story.
1263
00:37:09,827 --> 00:37:11,295
So then tell it again.
1264
00:37:11,295 --> 00:37:13,197
All of your stories.
1265
00:37:13,197 --> 00:37:13,531
No.
1266
00:37:13,831 --> 00:37:16,133
I we love your stories.
1267
00:37:16,133 --> 00:37:18,669
I was in an in WFAA school years ago,
1268
00:37:18,669 --> 00:37:19,003
I don't know,
1269
00:37:19,003 --> 00:37:21,806
maybe seven, eight, ten years ago and
1270
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:23,708
well actually was take it back
1271
00:37:23,708 --> 00:37:24,842
what was it in that with a school.
1272
00:37:24,842 --> 00:37:26,410
But it was the inspector school.
1273
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:28,179
Okay. To be an inspector.
1274
00:37:28,179 --> 00:37:29,380
So while I was there,
1275
00:37:29,380 --> 00:37:30,548
there was a guy from Ireland
1276
00:37:30,548 --> 00:37:32,149
in the school also
1277
00:37:32,149 --> 00:37:34,385
and you know, he's got the Irish accent.
1278
00:37:34,385 --> 00:37:34,885
I love this.
1279
00:37:34,885 --> 00:37:35,319
Like you said,
1280
00:37:35,319 --> 00:37:36,721
I love the Irish accent, man.
1281
00:37:36,721 --> 00:37:38,222
So yeah, we're talking
1282
00:37:38,222 --> 00:37:39,724
after after the class.
1283
00:37:39,724 --> 00:37:41,225
We're at the bar, we're having a drink
1284
00:37:41,225 --> 00:37:42,393
and we're talking about contracts.
1285
00:37:42,393 --> 00:37:44,095
And he said, you know,
1286
00:37:44,128 --> 00:37:45,696
in Ireland we don't sign contracts.
1287
00:37:45,696 --> 00:37:46,330
It's unheard of.
1288
00:37:46,330 --> 00:37:47,465
You would never sign a contract
1289
00:37:47,465 --> 00:37:48,032
in Ireland.
1290
00:37:48,032 --> 00:37:48,766
I said, Really?
1291
00:37:48,766 --> 00:37:49,267
It's just,
1292
00:37:49,267 --> 00:37:50,401
you know, the way doing business.
1293
00:37:50,401 --> 00:37:51,702
He said, But I did sign one.
1294
00:37:53,170 --> 00:37:53,904
I've only signed one
1295
00:37:53,904 --> 00:37:55,139
contract in my entire life
1296
00:37:55,139 --> 00:37:57,141
and it was with from YouTube.
1297
00:37:58,209 --> 00:38:00,144
I said, You mean the band like U2,
1298
00:38:00,144 --> 00:38:01,746
like Sunday Bloody Sunday, guys? Yeah.
1299
00:38:01,746 --> 00:38:02,613
I said, You work for him.
1300
00:38:02,613 --> 00:38:04,749
He goes, Yes, that's incredible.
1301
00:38:04,749 --> 00:38:05,950
So he had to sign a contract.
1302
00:38:05,950 --> 00:38:08,619
He goes, Yeah, he knows what it was.
1303
00:38:08,619 --> 00:38:10,755
If Bono came in the house,
1304
00:38:10,755 --> 00:38:13,291
you could not initiate contact with him.
1305
00:38:13,291 --> 00:38:14,225
You couldn't talk to him.
1306
00:38:14,225 --> 00:38:15,393
As a matter of fact,
1307
00:38:15,393 --> 00:38:16,727
you couldn't even make eye contact
1308
00:38:16,727 --> 00:38:16,961
with him.
1309
00:38:16,961 --> 00:38:18,029
It was written in the contract.
1310
00:38:18,029 --> 00:38:20,231
Don't make eye contact with him. Right.
1311
00:38:20,231 --> 00:38:23,267
And he said we were on the job for maybe
1312
00:38:23,267 --> 00:38:24,035
a couple weeks.
1313
00:38:24,035 --> 00:38:26,237
I mean, you know, he was never there.
1314
00:38:26,237 --> 00:38:27,605
You never seen him? He was never around.
1315
00:38:27,605 --> 00:38:30,041
But one day he was in the room
1316
00:38:30,608 --> 00:38:31,842
and I knew he was in the room
1317
00:38:31,842 --> 00:38:32,810
because you hear his voice.
1318
00:38:32,810 --> 00:38:33,878
Is that Bono voice, man?
1319
00:38:33,878 --> 00:38:35,746
We all know that voice, right? Yeah.
1320
00:38:37,181 --> 00:38:37,982
He was talking to the
1321
00:38:37,982 --> 00:38:38,916
architect or whatever
1322
00:38:38,916 --> 00:38:39,984
and you could hear him and everything.
1323
00:38:39,984 --> 00:38:41,218
He goes, I said, Did you see?
1324
00:38:41,218 --> 00:38:43,120
And he goes, No, it was at lunchtime,
1325
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:43,721
the three of us.
1326
00:38:43,721 --> 00:38:44,455
He got to go, man.
1327
00:38:44,455 --> 00:38:45,523
He was here
1328
00:38:45,523 --> 00:38:46,590
and we talked to each other again.
1329
00:38:46,590 --> 00:38:47,158
Did you see it?
1330
00:38:47,158 --> 00:38:48,492
No, I didn't look at did you look at
1331
00:38:48,492 --> 00:38:49,994
none of them looked at them.
1332
00:38:49,994 --> 00:38:51,028
They were so weirded out
1333
00:38:51,028 --> 00:38:53,264
about the contract and everything so.
1334
00:38:53,264 --> 00:38:54,565
Well, fast forward
1335
00:38:54,565 --> 00:38:56,701
he did a concert in Dublin
1336
00:38:56,701 --> 00:38:58,469
shortly thereafter
1337
00:38:59,070 --> 00:39:00,871
and Bono's plan
1338
00:39:00,871 --> 00:39:03,074
and at the end of one of the songs,
1339
00:39:03,574 --> 00:39:06,210
the joint was just going boom, boom,
1340
00:39:07,111 --> 00:39:10,281
boom, boom on the on the drum, right.
1341
00:39:11,349 --> 00:39:12,316
Bono, you know, bodies
1342
00:39:12,316 --> 00:39:12,850
that you know, he's
1343
00:39:12,850 --> 00:39:13,851
the cock of the white man.
1344
00:39:13,851 --> 00:39:15,386
He's got the microphone up in the air
1345
00:39:15,386 --> 00:39:16,687
and he's got the leather jacket on.
1346
00:39:16,687 --> 00:39:17,955
And he and he says,
1347
00:39:17,955 --> 00:39:19,623
every time you hear that drumbeat,
1348
00:39:20,725 --> 00:39:21,092
there's a
1349
00:39:21,092 --> 00:39:24,128
child in Africa dying.
1350
00:39:24,128 --> 00:39:26,197
So he says, your man next to me
1351
00:39:26,197 --> 00:39:27,298
shouts out,
1352
00:39:27,298 --> 00:39:28,666
Well, for God's sake, stop
1353
00:39:28,666 --> 00:39:32,970
hitting the drum.
1354
00:39:32,970 --> 00:39:34,972
And I never forgot that story.
1355
00:39:34,972 --> 00:39:35,573
I can't remember who
1356
00:39:35,573 --> 00:39:36,807
I don't know who the guy is, man.
1357
00:39:36,807 --> 00:39:39,543
But I told that story a few times, man,
1358
00:39:39,610 --> 00:39:40,378
that kills me.
1359
00:39:40,378 --> 00:39:41,912
So, you know, I've
1360
00:39:41,912 --> 00:39:43,714
I had to live through something like that
1361
00:39:43,714 --> 00:39:46,584
where we weren't allowed to look.
1362
00:39:46,584 --> 00:39:47,151
We were
1363
00:39:47,151 --> 00:39:50,388
we installed a six lane bowling alley
1364
00:39:51,021 --> 00:39:52,490
in the recreation
1365
00:39:52,490 --> 00:39:55,259
compound of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon.
1366
00:39:55,259 --> 00:39:56,260
You know, the.
1367
00:39:56,260 --> 00:39:58,262
The moon's right.
1368
00:39:58,262 --> 00:39:59,797
The people were running around.
1369
00:39:59,797 --> 00:40:00,564
You know what I mean?
1370
00:40:00,564 --> 00:40:03,100
Were you were not allowed to look at him
1371
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:06,003
or anyone in his family, his wife, kids,
1372
00:40:06,003 --> 00:40:06,370
any of that.
1373
00:40:06,370 --> 00:40:08,639
You weren't allowed to look at them.
1374
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:10,674
So if they were coming out
1375
00:40:10,674 --> 00:40:12,443
or walking through and, you know,
1376
00:40:12,443 --> 00:40:13,110
they want to see how the
1377
00:40:13,110 --> 00:40:14,779
construction was going, or
1378
00:40:15,846 --> 00:40:16,814
they had a guy
1379
00:40:16,814 --> 00:40:17,148
who would
1380
00:40:17,148 --> 00:40:19,784
round us all up and shove us in a room
1381
00:40:20,384 --> 00:40:22,653
and we had holes in there in this room.
1382
00:40:22,653 --> 00:40:24,355
But it was nice,
1383
00:40:24,355 --> 00:40:26,657
you know, you know, my fondness of coffee
1384
00:40:26,657 --> 00:40:27,391
and, you know,
1385
00:40:27,391 --> 00:40:29,093
coffee and donuts and everything.
1386
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:30,995
They locked us in this room,
1387
00:40:30,995 --> 00:40:31,695
but there was nice
1388
00:40:31,695 --> 00:40:33,197
refreshments in their coffee,
1389
00:40:33,197 --> 00:40:34,732
so it was a little coffee break.
1390
00:40:34,732 --> 00:40:36,167
We all used to laugh like hell
1391
00:40:36,167 --> 00:40:37,735
because this guy would come running down
1392
00:40:37,735 --> 00:40:38,536
as soon as we saw him.
1393
00:40:38,536 --> 00:40:40,771
We're like, All right, shut it all down.
1394
00:40:41,038 --> 00:40:43,073
Run into the little room.
1395
00:40:43,073 --> 00:40:45,876
You were not allowed to look at them.
1396
00:40:46,343 --> 00:40:49,246
But I got to tell you, there was a window
1397
00:40:49,246 --> 00:40:50,781
that I peeked through
1398
00:40:50,781 --> 00:40:53,017
after they left, and I saw them
1399
00:40:54,151 --> 00:40:55,786
only from behind.
1400
00:40:55,786 --> 00:40:58,222
But I definitely saw the guy.
1401
00:40:58,222 --> 00:40:59,223
I would love to do that.
1402
00:40:59,223 --> 00:40:59,657
Matter of fact,
1403
00:40:59,657 --> 00:41:00,057
next time
1404
00:41:00,057 --> 00:41:00,257
I have
1405
00:41:00,257 --> 00:41:01,292
someone working in my house,
1406
00:41:01,292 --> 00:41:01,725
I'm going to
1407
00:41:01,725 --> 00:41:04,028
I'm going to put that in my contract.
1408
00:41:04,028 --> 00:41:05,396
I have my wife because I wouldn't
1409
00:41:05,396 --> 00:41:06,630
have you know, I couldn't do it myself.
1410
00:41:06,630 --> 00:41:07,631
But I didn't have to say,
1411
00:41:07,631 --> 00:41:09,033
listen, that part of the contract,
1412
00:41:09,033 --> 00:41:09,533
when it comes
1413
00:41:09,533 --> 00:41:11,402
in, you can't even look at them.
1414
00:41:11,402 --> 00:41:11,902
Don't whatever
1415
00:41:11,902 --> 00:41:12,937
you do, don't talk to them.
1416
00:41:12,937 --> 00:41:13,838
Don't look at them.
1417
00:41:13,838 --> 00:41:15,806
Don't make eye contact with him.
1418
00:41:15,806 --> 00:41:16,707
You know,
1419
00:41:16,707 --> 00:41:18,509
you know that I work security,
1420
00:41:18,509 --> 00:41:19,143
a bunch of that.
1421
00:41:19,143 --> 00:41:19,410
You know,
1422
00:41:19,410 --> 00:41:19,944
I always talk
1423
00:41:19,944 --> 00:41:21,011
about working security
1424
00:41:21,011 --> 00:41:24,114
at that country first.
1425
00:41:24,114 --> 00:41:25,082
What's
1426
00:41:26,617 --> 00:41:28,819
oh, man Trisha Yearwood true
1427
00:41:28,853 --> 00:41:31,822
here would is she's the she's the finale.
1428
00:41:31,822 --> 00:41:33,090
She's the grand. Finale.
1429
00:41:33,090 --> 00:41:34,291
Garth Brooks wife.
1430
00:41:34,291 --> 00:41:36,093
Garth Brooks wife. Right.
1431
00:41:36,093 --> 00:41:36,827
So I'm working.
1432
00:41:36,827 --> 00:41:39,196
Security is his second wife.
1433
00:41:39,430 --> 00:41:41,765
Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
1434
00:41:42,900 --> 00:41:44,969
So I'm working security
1435
00:41:44,969 --> 00:41:48,239
and her manager, her road manager,
1436
00:41:48,272 --> 00:41:49,974
something comes up to me
1437
00:41:49,974 --> 00:41:51,642
and says, here's the deal.
1438
00:41:51,642 --> 00:41:53,444
When Trisha takes the stage,
1439
00:41:53,444 --> 00:41:54,979
I want all of these people off
1440
00:41:54,979 --> 00:41:56,247
stage, only people
1441
00:41:56,247 --> 00:41:58,115
who's going to be on this stage
1442
00:41:58,115 --> 00:41:59,917
and allowed to talk to her
1443
00:41:59,917 --> 00:42:02,086
or do anything is you and I.
1444
00:42:02,119 --> 00:42:04,655
I want this whole place cleared after.
1445
00:42:04,655 --> 00:42:06,557
She's not going to see anybody.
1446
00:42:06,557 --> 00:42:08,559
She's not going to sign contracts
1447
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:10,794
or sign autographs.
1448
00:42:10,794 --> 00:42:12,663
You know, she's just going on and on
1449
00:42:12,663 --> 00:42:13,497
and on and on.
1450
00:42:13,497 --> 00:42:15,933
And I'm thinking, jeez,
1451
00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:18,602
you know, what kind of a person is this?
1452
00:42:18,602 --> 00:42:19,470
You know,
1453
00:42:20,271 --> 00:42:23,107
and I'm going someplace with this story.
1454
00:42:23,107 --> 00:42:24,909
So she gets all done.
1455
00:42:24,909 --> 00:42:26,443
She comes walking back, she's
1456
00:42:26,443 --> 00:42:27,745
walking toward and oh, that was
1457
00:42:27,745 --> 00:42:28,379
the other thing is
1458
00:42:28,379 --> 00:42:30,114
I had to escort her
1459
00:42:30,114 --> 00:42:31,649
directly to her limousine.
1460
00:42:31,649 --> 00:42:33,751
They pulled it right up to the stage
1461
00:42:33,751 --> 00:42:35,853
and my job was to escort her
1462
00:42:35,853 --> 00:42:38,055
right to the limousine.
1463
00:42:38,055 --> 00:42:39,056
So I'm thinking she's going to be
1464
00:42:39,056 --> 00:42:40,491
a real super jerk,
1465
00:42:40,491 --> 00:42:40,991
you know,
1466
00:42:40,991 --> 00:42:45,195
to have all these rules and regulations.
1467
00:42:45,195 --> 00:42:46,630
There's nobody there.
1468
00:42:46,630 --> 00:42:47,031
There's
1469
00:42:47,031 --> 00:42:49,099
there's nobody there for autographs
1470
00:42:49,099 --> 00:42:50,634
or anything like that.
1471
00:42:50,634 --> 00:42:52,403
There is a little girl on crutches
1472
00:42:52,403 --> 00:42:53,537
standing there with her mother.
1473
00:42:53,537 --> 00:42:54,838
And the other thing
1474
00:42:54,838 --> 00:42:56,574
walking her from stage two
1475
00:42:57,608 --> 00:42:58,475
to the limo.
1476
00:42:58,475 --> 00:42:59,310
She couldn't have been
1477
00:42:59,310 --> 00:43:01,745
the more the nicest lady in the world.
1478
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:04,782
Sweet, beautiful.
1479
00:43:04,782 --> 00:43:07,117
I mean, you know, not at all
1480
00:43:07,117 --> 00:43:08,052
what I was expecting,
1481
00:43:08,052 --> 00:43:09,386
because this woman was,
1482
00:43:09,386 --> 00:43:11,288
you know, with all the buildup,
1483
00:43:11,288 --> 00:43:12,790
she sees people around the car,
1484
00:43:12,790 --> 00:43:14,725
couple of people, the crutches.
1485
00:43:14,725 --> 00:43:15,693
She goes over and talks
1486
00:43:15,693 --> 00:43:17,094
to the girl on the crutches for,
1487
00:43:17,094 --> 00:43:18,862
I don't know, ten, 15 minutes.
1488
00:43:18,862 --> 00:43:20,931
I was shocked how long they talked.
1489
00:43:20,931 --> 00:43:22,533
You should have tackled the kid.
1490
00:43:22,533 --> 00:43:24,602
She signed autographs for everybody.
1491
00:43:25,169 --> 00:43:26,303
And it was like, you know,
1492
00:43:26,303 --> 00:43:27,571
where's all this coming from?
1493
00:43:27,571 --> 00:43:28,572
So what I'm saying is,
1494
00:43:28,572 --> 00:43:31,208
with this guy in the Bono thing,
1495
00:43:32,343 --> 00:43:35,679
you know, I wonder if it was her manager
1496
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,515
that was making all these rules or,
1497
00:43:38,515 --> 00:43:40,784
you know, did Bono said,
1498
00:43:40,784 --> 00:43:42,987
I don't want anybody looking at me
1499
00:43:42,987 --> 00:43:45,990
because it just didn't seem like
1500
00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:46,957
Trisha Yearwood
1501
00:43:47,992 --> 00:43:49,860
would be the kind of person to say that.
1502
00:43:49,860 --> 00:43:51,228
I'm thinking, is it
1503
00:43:51,228 --> 00:43:53,530
their management is their manager
1504
00:43:53,530 --> 00:43:55,199
that comes up with all these
1505
00:43:55,199 --> 00:43:56,400
these harebrained things?
1506
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,802
Or is it really the you know, the talent?
1507
00:43:59,103 --> 00:44:00,004
You know what I mean?
1508
00:44:00,004 --> 00:44:02,072
Yeah, because Trisha Yearwood
1509
00:44:02,072 --> 00:44:04,274
not seem like the kind of person that
1510
00:44:05,042 --> 00:44:06,577
her manager was building
1511
00:44:06,577 --> 00:44:08,612
up, building her up to make
1512
00:44:08,846 --> 00:44:11,849
you know, she was as sweet as possible.
1513
00:44:11,849 --> 00:44:13,250
So I still I'm.
1514
00:44:13,250 --> 00:44:15,819
Wondering if that Bono thing
1515
00:44:15,819 --> 00:44:17,087
was just some managers
1516
00:44:17,087 --> 00:44:17,621
saying, don't
1517
00:44:17,621 --> 00:44:18,422
look at him, don't
1518
00:44:18,422 --> 00:44:19,890
do this, or did Bono
1519
00:44:19,890 --> 00:44:21,659
tell him,
1520
00:44:21,659 --> 00:44:23,761
I don't want anybody looking at me?
1521
00:44:23,761 --> 00:44:25,663
Listen, don't look at me.
1522
00:44:25,663 --> 00:44:26,363
If I hadn't
1523
00:44:26,363 --> 00:44:27,731
half an ounce of talent,
1524
00:44:27,731 --> 00:44:30,267
I would say, don't look at me.
1525
00:44:30,434 --> 00:44:31,669
The rules are rules, Rob.
1526
00:44:31,669 --> 00:44:33,470
Contract is a contract.
1527
00:44:33,470 --> 00:44:34,004
Wrap it up.
1528
00:44:34,004 --> 00:44:34,872
Bring it home, baby.
1529
00:44:34,872 --> 00:44:35,806
Wrap it up. All right.
1530
00:44:35,806 --> 00:44:36,907
Thank you guys very much.
1531
00:44:36,907 --> 00:44:37,708
Again, appreciate it.
1532
00:44:37,708 --> 00:44:38,342
Listenership.
1533
00:44:38,342 --> 00:44:41,679
Hopefully this this helps somebody.
1534
00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:43,714
And if someone wants a contract,
1535
00:44:43,714 --> 00:44:45,182

1536
00:44:45,182 --> 00:44:47,284
and I'll send after you.
1537
00:44:47,284 --> 00:44:48,085
