00:01:12,772 --> 00:01:14,274

39

00:01:16,576 --> 00:01:18,645

Yeah. Okay.

 

41

00:01:19,946 --> 00:01:21,848

You started talking about my underwear,

 

42

00:01:21,848 --> 00:01:23,116

00:01:23,116 --> 00:01:25,385

You got to love that. Okay.

 

44

00:01:25,385 --> 00:01:26,486

All right.

 

45

00:01:27,320 --> 00:01:29,289

You know, you're in Canada last week.

 

46

00:01:29,289 --> 00:01:30,690

Are you home now?

 

47

00:01:30,690 --> 00:01:30,957

Yeah.

 

48

00:01:30,957 --> 00:01:34,027

I just got home last night.

 

49

00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:37,230

So you're going to Canada, right?

 

50

00:01:37,564 --> 00:01:38,698

I'm going to Canada next week.

 

51

00:01:38,698 --> 00:01:40,033

You're going to Canada next week?

 

52

00:01:40,033 --> 00:01:40,633

Yep.

 

53

00:01:41,634 --> 00:01:43,937

Do you go in? Do you?

 

54

00:01:43,937 --> 00:01:45,872

You've probably fly in, right?

 

55

00:01:45,872 --> 00:01:47,740

Not straight there, no.

 

56

00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:49,242

So you flying into Seattle?

 

57

00:01:49,242 --> 00:01:51,377

Driving up? Yep.

 

58

00:01:51,377 --> 00:01:52,378

Yeah. I usually

 

59

00:01:53,379 --> 00:01:54,147

flier drive

 

60

00:01:54,147 --> 00:01:57,150

into Buffalo and then

 

61

00:01:57,150 --> 00:01:59,419

drive into Toronto from there, right?

 

62

00:01:59,419 --> 00:02:00,186

Mm hmm.

 

63

00:02:00,653 --> 00:02:04,290

And a few years back, I got stopped

 

64

00:02:05,225 --> 00:02:08,027

at the border, and,

 

65

00:02:08,027 --> 00:02:09,295

you know, the guys asked me,

 

66

00:02:09,295 --> 00:02:10,263

where are you going? What are you doing?

 

67

00:02:10,263 --> 00:02:11,164

Instead of going to the Boeing

 

68

00:02:11,164 --> 00:02:11,831

training center

 

69

00:02:11,831 --> 00:02:13,500

up in Toronto, we're doing,

 

70

00:02:13,500 --> 00:02:14,801

you know, a product knowledge

 

71

00:02:14,801 --> 00:02:16,970

type deal, this kind of thing.

 

72

00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:21,741

And he goes, Do you have a letter of.

 

73

00:02:22,442 --> 00:02:23,376

Wow, what the hell

 

74

00:02:23,376 --> 00:02:25,879

do they call a letter of introduction?

 

75

00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,282

And I said, no,

 

76

00:02:29,282 --> 00:02:29,849

you know,

 

77

00:02:29,849 --> 00:02:30,950

I've been coming here for years.

 

78

00:02:30,950 --> 00:02:32,519

Never had one.

 

79

00:02:32,652 --> 00:02:34,587

That was a dumb thing to say.

 

80

00:02:34,587 --> 00:02:35,321

He goes,

 

81

00:02:35,321 --> 00:02:35,889

okay, pull it

 

82

00:02:35,889 --> 00:02:37,056

right over there

 

83

00:02:37,056 --> 00:02:40,860

and go right into the small office.

 

84

00:02:41,027 --> 00:02:42,061

And they're going to make you wait

 

85

00:02:42,061 --> 00:02:43,363

for about an hour.

 

86

00:02:43,363 --> 00:02:45,231

And so, anyways,

 

87

00:02:45,231 --> 00:02:46,733

all this letter of introduction

 

88

00:02:46,733 --> 00:02:48,368

is it's something from the company.

 

89

00:02:48,368 --> 00:02:48,768

All right,

 

90

00:02:48,768 --> 00:02:50,036

I had Jordan fill it out

 

91

00:02:50,036 --> 00:02:53,072

because he's a he's a top guy in Canada.

 

92

00:02:53,072 --> 00:02:55,441

So Jordan fills this letter out

 

93

00:02:55,441 --> 00:02:57,744

and it just says where I'm going,

 

94

00:02:57,777 --> 00:03:01,147

how long I'm going to be there, where

 

95

00:03:01,147 --> 00:03:01,981

I'm staying,

 

96

00:03:01,981 --> 00:03:03,783

what I'm doing, the whole thing.

 

97

00:03:03,783 --> 00:03:04,450

Matter of fact, during

 

98

00:03:04,450 --> 00:03:06,252

COVID, you had to have a little

 

99

00:03:07,854 --> 00:03:08,788

what are you going to do

 

100

00:03:08,788 --> 00:03:09,656

if you get COVID?

 

101

00:03:09,656 --> 00:03:11,257

What's your quarantine plan?

 

102

00:03:11,257 --> 00:03:13,059

Quarantine plan.

 

103

00:03:13,059 --> 00:03:15,695

So know we said, Oh, there's a restroom

 

104

00:03:15,695 --> 00:03:16,930

at the training center

 

105

00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:18,932

and you know, Rob will stay there

 

106

00:03:18,932 --> 00:03:19,732

if they have to do it.

 

107

00:03:19,732 --> 00:03:21,935

I don't think you need that anymore.

 

108

00:03:21,935 --> 00:03:24,537

So I'm going through customs.

 

109

00:03:25,038 --> 00:03:26,072

They asked for my

 

110

00:03:26,072 --> 00:03:26,906

you know, I'm driving through

 

111

00:03:26,906 --> 00:03:31,044

they asked for my.

 

112

00:03:31,044 --> 00:03:32,545

Oh, what the hell is that called?

 

113

00:03:32,545 --> 00:03:33,880

Letter of introduction.

 

114

00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,082

Now, the little book has passport.

 

115

00:03:36,115 --> 00:03:37,383

Passport, right? Yeah.

 

116

00:03:37,383 --> 00:03:38,851

So they asked for my passport

 

117

00:03:38,851 --> 00:03:40,486

and I also had a

 

118

00:03:40,486 --> 00:03:42,555

letter of recommendation.

 

119

00:03:42,555 --> 00:03:42,889

That's.

 

120

00:03:42,889 --> 00:03:44,190

I just been doing it, I tell you,

 

121

00:03:44,190 --> 00:03:47,160

ever since I started using this letter

 

122

00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,127

right through.

 

123

00:03:48,127 --> 00:03:50,430

I mean, no questions asked.

 

124

00:03:50,430 --> 00:03:52,498

When DETMER came on and he was going

 

125

00:03:52,498 --> 00:03:54,167

up, I said, Hey, man,

 

126

00:03:54,167 --> 00:03:55,401

I sent them a copy of it.

 

127

00:03:55,401 --> 00:03:56,236

I said,

 

128

00:03:56,269 --> 00:03:57,670

Just fill this out

 

129

00:03:57,670 --> 00:04:00,206

with all the new information, everything.

 

130

00:04:00,206 --> 00:04:02,642

I said, it just makes going to the border

 

131

00:04:02,642 --> 00:04:04,110

a breeze because it's been getting,

 

132

00:04:04,110 --> 00:04:05,311

you know, touch and go.

 

133

00:04:06,946 --> 00:04:09,315

So anyways, I'm going through

 

134

00:04:09,315 --> 00:04:11,184

Swedish lady

 

135

00:04:11,184 --> 00:04:13,186

for the Canadian border, right?

 

136

00:04:13,219 --> 00:04:15,555

Sweetest lady in the world.

 

137

00:04:15,555 --> 00:04:18,491

And she's like bona rona, either

 

138

00:04:19,158 --> 00:04:20,526

you the floor people.

 

139

00:04:20,526 --> 00:04:22,829

I go, Yeah, yeah, that's us.

 

140

00:04:22,829 --> 00:04:24,130

She goes, Oh,

 

141

00:04:24,130 --> 00:04:26,232

you guys have the best cleaner.

 

142

00:04:26,232 --> 00:04:28,334

You know, you heard this before.

 

143

00:04:28,334 --> 00:04:31,271

And I said, Yeah, we get great cleaners.

 

144

00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:32,438

And, you know,

 

145

00:04:32,438 --> 00:04:33,906

we had lots of other things too.

 

146

00:04:33,906 --> 00:04:34,674

I said,

 

147

00:04:34,674 --> 00:04:34,907

you know,

 

148

00:04:34,907 --> 00:04:36,709

I work in the other division,

 

149

00:04:36,709 --> 00:04:38,378

the pro division.

 

150

00:04:38,378 --> 00:04:38,745

I said,

 

151

00:04:38,745 --> 00:04:39,479

You know, the cleaners,

 

152

00:04:39,479 --> 00:04:40,647

our retail division,

 

153

00:04:40,647 --> 00:04:42,615

and then we have the pro division.

 

154

00:04:42,615 --> 00:04:46,753

And she says, Well, what do you mean?

 

155

00:04:47,053 --> 00:04:47,820

Just.

 

156

00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,221

I said,

 

157

00:04:48,221 --> 00:04:48,454

You know,

 

158

00:04:48,454 --> 00:04:50,657

polyurethane stains and paints

 

159

00:04:50,657 --> 00:04:52,325

for the NBA floors.

 

160

00:04:52,325 --> 00:04:53,726

And she goes, What?

 

161

00:04:53,726 --> 00:04:54,794

What do you mean, polisher?

 

162

00:04:54,794 --> 00:04:57,163

I go, Water based polyurethane.

 

163

00:04:57,263 --> 00:04:58,698

I go, You know, it goes on top

 

164

00:04:58,698 --> 00:04:59,198

of the wood.

 

165

00:05:00,733 --> 00:05:02,035

And she says,

 

166

00:05:02,035 --> 00:05:03,002

I thought

 

167

00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:05,371

all the wood comes through with finished.

 

168

00:05:05,371 --> 00:05:07,473

Now I'm thinking, Oh,

 

169

00:05:07,473 --> 00:05:08,941

I'm screwing myself here.

 

170

00:05:08,941 --> 00:05:09,509

I should shouldn't

 

171

00:05:09,509 --> 00:05:11,511

I just should have never said a word.

 

172

00:05:11,511 --> 00:05:13,680

Right. But I'm trying to.

 

173

00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,347

So she says,

 

174

00:05:14,347 --> 00:05:15,114

I thought

 

175

00:05:15,114 --> 00:05:17,150

all the wood comes through now with

 

176

00:05:18,184 --> 00:05:20,420

with the finish on top.

 

177

00:05:20,453 --> 00:05:21,187

So I looked at her.

 

178

00:05:21,187 --> 00:05:23,289

I go, not the good stuff.

 

179

00:05:23,289 --> 00:05:24,023

Yeah.

 

180

00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:25,325

All

 

181

00:05:27,460 --> 00:05:27,894

Well.

 

182

00:05:28,661 --> 00:05:31,264

So see, when she said

 

183

00:05:31,264 --> 00:05:32,131

when I said that,

 

184

00:05:32,131 --> 00:05:33,700

she started laughing and said,

 

185

00:05:33,700 --> 00:05:35,034

Go on through.

 

186

00:05:35,034 --> 00:05:37,704

We'll see you later. Have a good trip.

 

187

00:05:37,704 --> 00:05:40,273

So I just saw that chair, that nice.

 

188

00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:43,309

Let me make a real quick note to myself.

 

189

00:05:43,309 --> 00:05:44,277

Don't

 

190

00:05:44,877 --> 00:05:47,880

ask Rob.

 

191

00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,482

Where.

 

192

00:05:49,482 --> 00:05:50,516

He.

 

193

00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:53,286

Is. Again.

 

194

00:05:53,286 --> 00:05:54,721

Okay. Go ahead.

 

195

00:05:54,721 --> 00:05:57,290

So I go back to Canada.

 

196

00:05:57,290 --> 00:05:58,291

You want to hear about that?

 

197

00:05:58,291 --> 00:05:59,792

No, that's cool.

 

198

00:05:59,792 --> 00:06:01,494

Sure. Now.

 

199

00:06:01,494 --> 00:06:02,829

Montreal, I can.

 

200

00:06:02,829 --> 00:06:03,896

No, I'm good.

 

201

00:06:03,896 --> 00:06:05,631

I'll make sure I talk to the border agent

 

202

00:06:05,631 --> 00:06:07,600

and that much. Would you?

 

203

00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:08,134

Yeah.

 

204

00:06:08,134 --> 00:06:08,368

Yeah,

 

205

00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:09,001

I'll let you know what

 

206

00:06:09,001 --> 00:06:10,470

happens in Montreal. Yeah,

 

207

00:06:11,604 --> 00:06:12,305

I.

 

208

00:06:12,805 --> 00:06:14,941

I was at a hotel all week this week too.

 

209

00:06:15,074 --> 00:06:16,476

And it's funny

 

210

00:06:16,476 --> 00:06:19,345

because when I was checking in the,

 

211

00:06:19,645 --> 00:06:20,947

the girl

 

212

00:06:21,114 --> 00:06:21,681

at the counter,

 

213

00:06:21,681 --> 00:06:24,484

she's probably 23 years old or whatever,

 

214

00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:27,086

she she goes, okay, Mr.

 

215

00:06:27,086 --> 00:06:27,487

Ireland, here's

 

216

00:06:27,487 --> 00:06:28,187

your room number

 

217

00:06:28,187 --> 00:06:30,723

and obviously the suite on top.

 

218

00:06:30,723 --> 00:06:33,693

And then she says

 

219

00:06:33,693 --> 00:06:36,396

the 24 hour fitness is open.

 

220

00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:37,163

You know,

 

221

00:06:37,163 --> 00:06:37,764

there's a key to

 

222

00:06:37,764 --> 00:06:39,132

that is 24 hours and whatever.

 

223

00:06:39,132 --> 00:06:40,099

And, you know,

 

224

00:06:40,233 --> 00:06:40,833

and I looked at it

 

225

00:06:40,833 --> 00:06:42,702

and I thought to myself,

 

226

00:06:42,835 --> 00:06:43,436

she knows darn

 

227

00:06:43,436 --> 00:06:44,604

well I'm not going to that 24

 

228

00:06:44,604 --> 00:06:45,738

hour fitness.

 

229

00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:47,206

And I wonder how many times

 

230

00:06:47,206 --> 00:06:48,608

she has to look at people

 

231

00:06:48,608 --> 00:06:51,444

and say that no one with every bone

 

232

00:06:51,444 --> 00:06:52,044

in her body,

 

233

00:06:52,044 --> 00:06:53,012

they're not even going to sniff

 

234

00:06:53,012 --> 00:06:54,647

that 24 hour fitness.

 

235

00:06:54,647 --> 00:06:55,848

You know what I mean?

 

236

00:06:55,982 --> 00:06:57,450

I looked at her. I go, you know, I

 

237

00:06:58,418 --> 00:06:59,419

you know, I'm not going there.

 

238

00:06:59,419 --> 00:07:01,587

Right. And she said,

 

239

00:07:01,687 --> 00:07:02,455

yes.

 

240

00:07:02,455 --> 00:07:03,956

Well, I have to say it

 

241

00:07:03,956 --> 00:07:06,392

all right with you, though. I mean.

 

242

00:07:06,392 --> 00:07:06,726

Yeah,

 

243

00:07:06,726 --> 00:07:07,794

but that she was giving you

 

244

00:07:07,794 --> 00:07:09,896

a compliment, like, look at this dude.

 

245

00:07:09,929 --> 00:07:11,664

He's buff, he's probably hitting the gym.

 

246

00:07:11,664 --> 00:07:13,666

I'll make sure he knows how to get it.

 

247

00:07:13,666 --> 00:07:15,368

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

 

248

00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:16,269

I'm sure she you know,

 

249

00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:17,103

she has to say that.

 

250

00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:18,371

And but all I want to know

 

251

00:07:18,371 --> 00:07:20,807

is the my getting my free cookie or not.

 

252

00:07:20,807 --> 00:07:21,174

So

 

253

00:07:22,108 --> 00:07:24,010

that should be the indication that I'm

 

254

00:07:24,010 --> 00:07:29,415

not going to be there.

 

255

00:07:29,415 --> 00:07:30,450

My

 

256

00:07:31,818 --> 00:07:34,153

our friends we have some friends.

 

257

00:07:34,153 --> 00:07:36,956

I think they're in their mid

 

258

00:07:36,956 --> 00:07:39,358

eighties great shape really.

 

259

00:07:39,392 --> 00:07:41,894

I mean just I mean a great great couple

 

260

00:07:41,894 --> 00:07:43,496

and one of them,

 

261

00:07:43,496 --> 00:07:46,065

their friend, their friend passed away

 

262

00:07:46,065 --> 00:07:48,000

and they found out on Facebook

 

263

00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,936

and someone said so-and-so

 

264

00:07:49,936 --> 00:07:51,070

passed away, just won't live.

 

265

00:07:51,070 --> 00:07:52,104

We know.

 

266

00:07:52,238 --> 00:07:52,805

And, you know, her

 

267

00:07:52,805 --> 00:07:54,040

eyesight isn't very good.

 

268

00:07:55,041 --> 00:07:56,209

And so she said

 

269

00:07:56,209 --> 00:07:58,478

a laughing emoji was a response

 

270

00:08:00,313 --> 00:08:02,882

to the person

 

271

00:08:03,049 --> 00:08:05,751

son who passed away on Facebook.

 

272

00:08:05,751 --> 00:08:06,452

So

 

273

00:08:09,622 --> 00:08:10,656

went out to dinner with her

 

274

00:08:10,656 --> 00:08:11,891

and she's mortified.

 

275

00:08:11,891 --> 00:08:13,893

She can't stop thinking about it.

 

276

00:08:13,893 --> 00:08:16,295

She.

 

277

00:08:16,295 --> 00:08:18,331

She sent a laughing emoji.

 

278

00:08:18,631 --> 00:08:20,933

See the parents of a dead kid?

 

279

00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,168

Yeah, just one of them.

 

280

00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:24,270

We know that so-and-so has passed away

 

281

00:08:24,570 --> 00:08:26,072

after a struggle and,

 

282

00:08:26,072 --> 00:08:27,440

you know, blah, blah, blah.

 

283

00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,708

And so,

 

284

00:08:28,708 --> 00:08:29,375

yeah,

 

285

00:08:29,375 --> 00:08:29,709

I know

 

286

00:08:29,709 --> 00:08:31,344

they have a lot of friends on here.

 

287

00:08:31,344 --> 00:08:33,779

And her response was a laughing emoji.

 

288

00:08:33,779 --> 00:08:36,482

Well, what are.

 

289

00:08:36,482 --> 00:08:38,551

And she thought it was like

 

290

00:08:38,551 --> 00:08:39,452

the caring one.

 

291

00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:41,521

What did she think it was.

 

292

00:08:41,587 --> 00:08:42,288

People

 

293

00:08:42,288 --> 00:08:43,990

she thought it was the carer with like

 

294

00:08:43,990 --> 00:08:45,825

you know there are the hugging arms

 

295

00:08:45,825 --> 00:08:47,126

around the heart or whatever,

 

296

00:08:47,126 --> 00:08:48,794

whatever the hell that is.

 

297

00:08:48,794 --> 00:08:50,496

But you know what?

 

298

00:08:50,496 --> 00:08:52,632

Maybe maybe we should just make this

 

299

00:08:53,165 --> 00:08:55,635

another PSA announcement from the on

 

300

00:08:55,635 --> 00:08:56,869

the floor staff here.

 

301

00:08:58,471 --> 00:08:58,871

You know,

 

302

00:08:58,871 --> 00:09:01,807

maybe if somebody loses somebody,

 

303

00:09:02,942 --> 00:09:05,344

maybe emojis aren't the way to go.

 

304

00:09:05,344 --> 00:09:08,814

Maybe just to let you know she's sorry

 

305

00:09:08,814 --> 00:09:11,551

or condolences or words.

 

306

00:09:12,051 --> 00:09:13,753

Okay, maybe.

 

307

00:09:13,753 --> 00:09:16,489

Maybe this isn't time for

 

308

00:09:16,489 --> 00:09:19,292

the crying out loud laughing emoji.

 

309

00:09:20,092 --> 00:09:22,728

Now, Wayne, I talked to a lot of people

 

310

00:09:23,262 --> 00:09:24,063

at the schools

 

311

00:09:24,063 --> 00:09:25,097

and everything and,

 

312

00:09:25,097 --> 00:09:26,332

you know, traveling around

 

313

00:09:26,332 --> 00:09:28,834

and we have a lot of listeners out there.

 

314

00:09:30,169 --> 00:09:33,506

And you know what I hear a lot,

 

315

00:09:33,506 --> 00:09:35,374

you know. I mean to.

 

316

00:09:35,374 --> 00:09:37,476

You about the favorite, you know, the

 

317

00:09:37,777 --> 00:09:38,611

the meanest thing

 

318

00:09:38,611 --> 00:09:40,246

is definitely going both ways.

 

319

00:09:40,246 --> 00:09:41,447

You know I hear that

 

320

00:09:41,447 --> 00:09:42,682

you know he's mean you're

 

321

00:09:42,682 --> 00:09:43,516

yeah that's

 

322

00:09:43,516 --> 00:09:43,749

why we're

 

323

00:09:43,749 --> 00:09:44,984

changing the name of to

 

324

00:09:44,984 --> 00:09:47,620

on the floor to karate too

 

325

00:09:47,753 --> 00:09:48,521

but

 

326

00:09:49,422 --> 00:09:51,724

boy the guys love

 

327

00:09:52,892 --> 00:09:55,294

the why of episode the wives episode

 

328

00:09:56,462 --> 00:09:56,862

and

 

329

00:09:57,663 --> 00:10:00,466

yeah I think, I think after 200, maybe

 

330

00:10:00,466 --> 00:10:03,169

like 201mi think

 

331

00:10:03,169 --> 00:10:04,236

we should do another wives.

 

332

00:10:04,236 --> 00:10:05,671

Let the wives and I, Eileen,

 

333

00:10:05,671 --> 00:10:07,773

tear it up again. It's been a while.

 

334

00:10:07,773 --> 00:10:09,075

Let's see what they've let's see

 

335

00:10:09,075 --> 00:10:10,276

what they've learned.

 

336

00:10:10,276 --> 00:10:12,011

Is fine by me.

 

337

00:10:12,011 --> 00:10:14,780

Take give us a week off.

 

338

00:10:14,780 --> 00:10:17,350

You say crotchety old, but

 

339

00:10:20,019 --> 00:10:21,420

you know the older you get,

 

340

00:10:21,420 --> 00:10:22,822

the goal line changes.

 

341

00:10:22,822 --> 00:10:23,723

You know,

 

342

00:10:23,889 --> 00:10:24,657

my mother in law

 

343

00:10:24,657 --> 00:10:27,860

just turned 93 this month, 93 years old.

 

344

00:10:28,561 --> 00:10:29,161

Wow.

 

345

00:10:29,161 --> 00:10:30,296

And she's

 

346

00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:31,197

probably the meanest woman

 

347

00:10:31,197 --> 00:10:33,032

I've ever known, you know?

 

348

00:10:33,032 --> 00:10:35,635

And I'm not making that up.

 

349

00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:36,902

I'm just going to tell you,

 

350

00:10:36,902 --> 00:10:38,070

this is a great example

 

351

00:10:38,070 --> 00:10:40,706

of how how mean she is. Rob,

 

352

00:10:40,706 --> 00:10:41,741

we would go to this

 

353

00:10:41,741 --> 00:10:43,943

this Chinese restaurant

 

354

00:10:43,943 --> 00:10:44,910

because she loved it

 

355

00:10:44,910 --> 00:10:45,511

and actually

 

356

00:10:45,511 --> 00:10:46,679

she didn't like the food at all.

 

357

00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:47,980

It wasn't about the food.

 

358

00:10:47,980 --> 00:10:49,348

Food was fine,

 

359

00:10:49,348 --> 00:10:50,583

but the guy doted on her

 

360

00:10:50,583 --> 00:10:51,684

and gave her a lot of attention.

 

361

00:10:51,684 --> 00:10:52,051

The honor.

 

362

00:10:52,051 --> 00:10:53,753

And that's what she really liked.

 

363

00:10:53,753 --> 00:10:54,487

No, he was

 

364

00:10:54,487 --> 00:10:55,721

he made a big deal about her

 

365

00:10:55,721 --> 00:10:56,722

and she really like that.

 

366

00:10:56,722 --> 00:10:58,991

So you all let's go to that place again.

 

367

00:10:58,991 --> 00:11:01,761

And so the guy is a super nice guy,

 

368

00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:02,995

the owner of the restaurant,

 

369

00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:05,297

and he started wearing a hats,

 

370

00:11:05,297 --> 00:11:05,531

you know,

 

371

00:11:05,531 --> 00:11:07,733

he took to wearing like baseball hats.

 

372

00:11:07,733 --> 00:11:10,336

So he came and waited on us.

 

373

00:11:10,336 --> 00:11:11,837

And this is typical her. Okay.

 

374

00:11:12,838 --> 00:11:14,040

And she goes,

 

375

00:11:14,273 --> 00:11:15,675

What are you doing wearing that hat?

 

376

00:11:15,675 --> 00:11:16,442

Take that hat off.

 

377

00:11:16,442 --> 00:11:20,079

It looks silly.

 

378

00:11:20,079 --> 00:11:21,380

And you know.

 

379

00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:22,648

No, no, no, I don't know.

 

380

00:11:22,648 --> 00:11:23,983

I just like I like to like, you know,

 

381

00:11:23,983 --> 00:11:25,718

I just like wearing a hat, you know?

 

382

00:11:25,718 --> 00:11:27,186

No. She goes, You should take that.

 

383

00:11:27,186 --> 00:11:27,853

Take that hat off.

 

384

00:11:27,853 --> 00:11:28,788

Right now. You look silly.

 

385

00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:30,456

You look ridiculous

 

386

00:11:30,690 --> 00:11:30,890

because.

 

387

00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:32,825

No, Mom, it's okay.

 

388

00:11:32,825 --> 00:11:34,460

It's fine. I wear the hat.

 

389

00:11:34,460 --> 00:11:35,528

Shoes. You look ridiculous.

 

390

00:11:35,528 --> 00:11:36,395

Take it off.

 

391

00:11:36,395 --> 00:11:37,563

So.

 

392

00:11:37,563 --> 00:11:39,498

So he takes off the hat.

 

393

00:11:39,498 --> 00:11:48,007

She goes, Oh, my God, you're going bald.

 

394

00:11:48,007 --> 00:11:50,342

Yes. I love the old girls, huh?

 

395

00:11:50,943 --> 00:11:53,212

He came by one time and gave us dessert.

 

396

00:11:53,212 --> 00:11:54,947

He goes, You want tapioca dessert?

 

397

00:11:54,947 --> 00:11:55,681

She goes, No, no, no.

 

398

00:11:55,681 --> 00:11:56,582

I don't want any dessert.

 

399

00:11:56,582 --> 00:11:57,883

He goes, You love the

 

400

00:11:57,883 --> 00:11:59,351

I'll give you a little bit. It's free.

 

401

00:11:59,351 --> 00:12:00,986

I give you a little tapioca.

 

402

00:12:00,986 --> 00:12:02,054

Tapioca jewel.

 

403

00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:03,055

No, no, no. That's okay.

 

404

00:12:03,055 --> 00:12:04,523

He goes to come on, it's

 

405

00:12:04,523 --> 00:12:05,925

your love is free.

 

406

00:12:05,925 --> 00:12:07,426

He brings it over to her.

 

407

00:12:07,426 --> 00:12:08,327

She takes a spoon.

 

408

00:12:08,327 --> 00:12:09,662

She takes a spoon of it. Right.

 

409

00:12:09,662 --> 00:12:10,396

And she goes,

 

410

00:12:10,396 --> 00:12:18,771

Jesus, Mary, Joseph is poison.

 

411

00:12:18,771 --> 00:12:20,906

Oh, boy. All right, Rob.

 

412

00:12:21,173 --> 00:12:24,877

Why don't we get her on the show?

 

413

00:12:24,877 --> 00:12:26,011

That could be a fun interview.

 

414

00:12:26,011 --> 00:12:27,012

I'd like to hear what she has

 

415

00:12:27,012 --> 00:12:27,613

to think of.

 

416

00:12:27,613 --> 00:12:28,981

No. Can't do it.

 

417

00:12:28,981 --> 00:12:29,882

And do it anymore.

 

418

00:12:29,882 --> 00:12:32,351

Yeah. Listen, I know we can do.

 

419

00:12:32,351 --> 00:12:33,753

We'll get your mother in law

 

420

00:12:33,753 --> 00:12:36,355

and my mother in law on the show.

 

421

00:12:36,355 --> 00:12:39,024

She's she's quite forgetful now, too.

 

422

00:12:39,024 --> 00:12:41,494

She's in a she's in good shape.

 

423

00:12:41,494 --> 00:12:44,363

She's this an immense memory.

 

424

00:12:44,363 --> 00:12:45,598

Memory care center.

 

425

00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:46,966

Yeah, memory care center.

 

426

00:12:46,966 --> 00:12:48,400

You couldn't even remember what it was.

 

427

00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,436

Right. I'll be right there with her.

 

428

00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:54,340

They do crafts, they do yoga.

 

429

00:12:54,340 --> 00:12:55,674

I remember a few years back,

 

430

00:12:55,674 --> 00:12:57,209

they put my grandmother in a place

 

431

00:12:57,209 --> 00:12:57,710

like that.

 

432

00:12:57,710 --> 00:13:00,713

And one day I went to visit her and

 

433

00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:02,248

she's like I said, boy, Nana,

 

434

00:13:02,248 --> 00:13:03,749

you look great.

 

435

00:13:03,749 --> 00:13:04,850

You're doing good, you know,

 

436

00:13:04,850 --> 00:13:05,951

because they feed them

 

437

00:13:05,951 --> 00:13:07,186

and they get their water.

 

438

00:13:07,186 --> 00:13:07,853

Yeah, yeah.

 

439

00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:08,921

That's a big deal, right?

 

440

00:13:08,921 --> 00:13:09,889

Water is everything,

 

441

00:13:09,889 --> 00:13:11,190

I think, with the old people.

 

442

00:13:11,190 --> 00:13:12,024

Mm hmm.

 

443

00:13:12,057 --> 00:13:14,193

Once they start, stop drinking the water,

 

444

00:13:15,361 --> 00:13:17,396

that's when they really start losing it,

 

445

00:13:17,396 --> 00:13:17,730

you know?

 

446

00:13:17,730 --> 00:13:18,397

They take a drink.

 

447

00:13:18,397 --> 00:13:20,466

Yeah, as you drink up, old person.

 

448

00:13:20,533 --> 00:13:21,367

Right.

 

449

00:13:22,501 --> 00:13:24,436

So she goes, I feel.

 

450

00:13:24,436 --> 00:13:25,271

I feel great.

 

451

00:13:25,271 --> 00:13:26,172

She goes,

 

452

00:13:26,338 --> 00:13:29,008

I don't even know why I'm in here.

 

453

00:13:29,008 --> 00:13:30,442

I said, Don't.

 

454

00:13:30,442 --> 00:13:33,179

What do you have for breakfast?

 

455

00:13:33,179 --> 00:13:34,113

And she goes,

 

456

00:13:34,113 --> 00:13:37,349

Uh, she's, I don't remember.

 

457

00:13:37,383 --> 00:13:38,818

I go, That's why you're here.

 

458

00:13:39,985 --> 00:13:41,220

It's these little things.

 

459

00:13:41,220 --> 00:13:42,922

Oh, my God.

 

460

00:13:42,922 --> 00:13:45,057

Pauline whacked me upside the head

 

461

00:13:45,958 --> 00:13:47,760

so fast when I said that.

 

462

00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,063

But the good thing is, she was laughing.

 

463

00:13:51,063 --> 00:13:51,630

I was like,

 

464

00:13:51,630 --> 00:13:52,832

we were all laughing about it.

 

465

00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,166

She knew she was going to forget

 

466

00:13:54,166 --> 00:13:54,633

and stuff,

 

467

00:13:54,633 --> 00:13:55,367

but yeah,

 

468

00:13:55,367 --> 00:13:55,901

let's get them,

 

469

00:13:55,901 --> 00:13:56,368

I think

 

470

00:13:56,368 --> 00:13:57,770

get the mother in law's on

 

471

00:13:57,770 --> 00:13:59,338

or either that or just let the wives

 

472

00:13:59,338 --> 00:14:01,006

talk about the mothers.

 

473

00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:01,774

Yeah.

 

474

00:14:02,074 --> 00:14:03,209

Maybe that's the move.

 

475

00:14:03,209 --> 00:14:03,642

Yeah.

 

476

00:14:03,642 --> 00:14:04,443

I don't know if they'll have

 

477

00:14:04,443 --> 00:14:07,446

as much fun with it as you and I do know.

 

478

00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:09,448

Well, right.

 

479

00:14:09,448 --> 00:14:11,817

You know, Dame Edna is Dame Edna.

 

480

00:14:11,817 --> 00:14:14,286

Dame Edna, you know, that is

 

481

00:14:15,721 --> 00:14:16,589

no idea.

 

482

00:14:16,589 --> 00:14:17,523

Probably a lot of Americans

 

483

00:14:17,523 --> 00:14:18,390

won't know who this is.

 

484

00:14:18,390 --> 00:14:19,491

One of the funniest

 

485

00:14:19,491 --> 00:14:21,260

comedians in the world.

 

486

00:14:21,260 --> 00:14:22,895

And it's a it's a guy

 

487

00:14:22,895 --> 00:14:24,296

is whole act he's dressed up

 

488

00:14:24,296 --> 00:14:25,531

as a woman his entire life

 

489

00:14:26,899 --> 00:14:27,900

but he talks about

 

490

00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:29,501

having is a

 

491

00:14:29,501 --> 00:14:30,402

I think it's a mother in law

 

492

00:14:30,402 --> 00:14:32,504

that that has Alzheimer's

 

493

00:14:32,504 --> 00:14:35,107

and that they used to like

 

494

00:14:35,107 --> 00:14:37,076

they would put up like a really

 

495

00:14:37,076 --> 00:14:39,078

what do you call it, like a

 

496

00:14:39,111 --> 00:14:41,480

a really bright light, like a like a

 

497

00:14:43,849 --> 00:14:45,117

like a sun lamp

 

498

00:14:45,117 --> 00:14:46,652

on her face

 

499

00:14:46,819 --> 00:14:48,254

and then throw sand in her face.

 

500

00:14:48,254 --> 00:14:49,021

And next day, tomorrow,

 

501

00:14:49,021 --> 00:14:57,396

they took her on a cruise.

 

502

00:14:57,396 --> 00:14:58,764

I would never do that.

 

503

00:14:58,764 --> 00:15:00,366

Nice. Okay.

 

504

00:15:00,366 --> 00:15:01,400

All right, let's go.

 

505

00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,067

We're making fun of it.

 

506

00:15:02,067 --> 00:15:03,669

But actually, it's a very it's a

 

507

00:15:03,669 --> 00:15:05,704

it's a it's a anybody that knows.

 

508

00:15:05,704 --> 00:15:07,006

It's a tragic, tragic.

 

509

00:15:07,006 --> 00:15:07,706

They call it the long

 

510

00:15:07,706 --> 00:15:10,175

goodbye as a tragic illness.

 

511

00:15:10,175 --> 00:15:12,544

So but my mother has had a great life

 

512

00:15:12,544 --> 00:15:14,413

and actually she's doing really well.

 

513

00:15:14,413 --> 00:15:15,881

She we thought she would not do

 

514

00:15:15,881 --> 00:15:16,682

well at this place.

 

515

00:15:16,682 --> 00:15:18,684

And at first, she resisted and

 

516

00:15:18,684 --> 00:15:20,419

she's done remarkably well there now.

 

517

00:15:20,419 --> 00:15:22,154

So their spirits are always up.

 

518

00:15:22,154 --> 00:15:23,589

And so.

 

519

00:15:23,589 --> 00:15:24,790

All right, up

 

520

00:15:24,790 --> 00:15:26,325

to four guys walk into a bar.

 

521

00:15:27,893 --> 00:15:29,695

Excellent joke.

 

522

00:15:30,129 --> 00:15:31,830

St Patrick's Day, right?

 

523

00:15:31,830 --> 00:15:33,632

Yeah, it's St Patrick's Day.

 

524

00:15:33,632 --> 00:15:35,701

So they say

 

525

00:15:37,202 --> 00:15:39,571

I notice your boots look like

 

526

00:15:39,571 --> 00:15:40,940

you got some stain on them,

 

527

00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:42,841

you hardwood floor guy.

 

528

00:15:43,509 --> 00:15:43,776

Yeah.

 

529

00:15:43,776 --> 00:15:45,811

My fact, I am

 

530

00:15:46,011 --> 00:15:48,514

I am the best carpet floor guy.

 

531

00:15:49,048 --> 00:15:50,916

I do an unbelievable.

 

532

00:15:50,916 --> 00:15:53,152

I, uh, I finish everything with 300.

 

533

00:15:53,185 --> 00:15:53,719

Great.

 

534

00:15:54,219 --> 00:15:55,688

Oh, you're the best.

 

535

00:15:55,688 --> 00:15:57,589

Oh, 300. Great.

 

536

00:15:57,589 --> 00:15:57,890

You said.

 

537

00:15:57,890 --> 00:16:00,626

Don't you mean to 40 grit?

 

538

00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:02,594

No, I have that stuff

 

539

00:16:02,594 --> 00:16:04,897

specially made for us. Hmm.

 

540

00:16:05,564 --> 00:16:06,031

Cool.

 

541

00:16:06,031 --> 00:16:07,566

You know, we finish all our jobs off

 

542

00:16:07,566 --> 00:16:08,701

with 10,000 grit.

 

543

00:16:08,701 --> 00:16:09,501

Okay, how about that?

 

544

00:16:09,501 --> 00:16:11,904

You can't even see it with the naked eye.

 

545

00:16:11,904 --> 00:16:13,572

Oh, I could see it.

 

546

00:16:13,572 --> 00:16:16,342

National Institute studies my eyes and

 

547

00:16:17,409 --> 00:16:20,579

they said, is are cheetah.

 

548

00:16:20,913 --> 00:16:22,614

I see. So well.

 

549

00:16:22,614 --> 00:16:25,150

Really. Yeah. Oh yeah.

 

550

00:16:25,150 --> 00:16:28,554

Well my vision is similar to a mantis

 

551

00:16:28,554 --> 00:16:29,722

shrimp.

 

552

00:16:29,722 --> 00:16:31,590

They've got the most sophisticated vision

 

553

00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:32,524

in the animal kingdom.

 

554

00:16:32,524 --> 00:16:33,258

Okay,

 

555

00:16:33,492 --> 00:16:35,527

their compound eyes move independently.

 

556

00:16:35,527 --> 00:16:36,628

They have 12 to 16

 

557

00:16:36,628 --> 00:16:38,197

visual pigments compared to humans.

 

558

00:16:38,197 --> 00:16:38,998

Three.

 

559

00:16:38,998 --> 00:16:41,033

Okay, so, you know,

 

560

00:16:41,033 --> 00:16:41,700

they're the only,

 

561

00:16:41,700 --> 00:16:42,901

only animals known

 

562

00:16:42,901 --> 00:16:45,270

to see circular polarized light.

 

563

00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:46,238

That's why in my crew

 

564

00:16:46,238 --> 00:16:48,173

I always pick out the stain colors

 

565

00:16:48,173 --> 00:16:49,742

when I got a match existing.

 

566

00:16:49,742 --> 00:16:50,743

I'm one of you can't possibly

 

567

00:16:50,743 --> 00:16:51,910

see what I do, you know.

 

568

00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:56,148

So I'm always right.

 

569

00:16:56,148 --> 00:16:57,016

Those pretty good eyes

 

570

00:16:57,016 --> 00:16:57,649

you get there, huh?

 

571

00:16:58,751 --> 00:16:59,351

Yeah.

 

572

00:16:59,885 --> 00:17:00,386

Well, I guess

 

573

00:17:00,386 --> 00:17:01,053

that's going to come in

 

574

00:17:01,053 --> 00:17:02,921

handy for touch ups.

 

575

00:17:03,422 --> 00:17:05,557

Yeah, well, we don't do touch ups.

 

576

00:17:05,557 --> 00:17:09,194

Like I said, I don't make mistakes.

 

577

00:17:09,194 --> 00:17:09,628

Mm.

 

578

00:17:10,496 --> 00:17:11,497

What do you guys charge in for

 

579

00:17:11,497 --> 00:17:12,831

staying in? Finish.

 

580

00:17:12,931 --> 00:17:14,133

What do we charge?

 

581

00:17:14,133 --> 00:17:14,700

Yeah.

 

582

00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:18,404

Yeah, we charge more, more.

 

583

00:17:18,637 --> 00:17:21,874

That's what we charge.

 

584

00:17:21,874 --> 00:17:24,643

That's going to be one of those days.

 

585

00:17:25,110 --> 00:17:27,079

You guys staying busy?

 

586

00:17:27,479 --> 00:17:27,913

Yeah.

 

587

00:17:27,913 --> 00:17:31,216

You know, we've got a lot of vans

 

588

00:17:31,417 --> 00:17:32,251

that we have.

 

589

00:17:32,251 --> 00:17:33,285

I mean, they're beautiful vans.

 

590

00:17:33,285 --> 00:17:34,887

Sprinter vans get you know,

 

591

00:17:34,887 --> 00:17:35,821

they're they're wrapped

 

592

00:17:35,821 --> 00:17:38,123

wall to wall beautiful but

 

593

00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:41,660

we put absolutely, positively no contact

 

594

00:17:41,660 --> 00:17:43,829

information on them, no phone numbers,

 

595

00:17:43,929 --> 00:17:46,532

no Facebook, no Instagram, nothing.

 

596

00:17:47,299 --> 00:17:47,499

You know,

 

597

00:17:47,499 --> 00:17:48,434

if they want us that bad,

 

598

00:17:48,434 --> 00:17:51,503

they got to work to contact us.

 

599

00:17:51,503 --> 00:17:52,771

That's pretty cool.

 

600

00:17:52,771 --> 00:17:54,873

Our vans they pizza delivery on

 

601

00:17:54,873 --> 00:17:57,543

we just can't possibly take on

 

602

00:17:58,010 --> 00:18:00,646

any more work, huh?

 

603

00:18:00,646 --> 00:18:03,749

You know, I've never heard of you.

 

604

00:18:03,749 --> 00:18:04,616

But, yeah,

 

605

00:18:04,616 --> 00:18:08,520

we really never heard of you either.

 

606

00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,522

Um, how do you guys vacuum?

 

607

00:18:11,557 --> 00:18:14,893

Oh, let me tell you something.

 

608

00:18:14,893 --> 00:18:16,095

Nobody vacuums.

 

609

00:18:16,095 --> 00:18:19,465

Our vacuuming is one, another level.

 

610

00:18:20,399 --> 00:18:22,201

We don't even call it vacuum.

 

611

00:18:22,201 --> 00:18:23,869

We call it air.

 

612

00:18:23,869 --> 00:18:26,638

And space extraction.

 

613

00:18:26,638 --> 00:18:28,373

They use it. It, NASA.

 

614

00:18:28,373 --> 00:18:30,609

It's the same principle.

 

615

00:18:30,609 --> 00:18:32,511

Then we vacuum each other.

 

616

00:18:32,511 --> 00:18:35,314

Then we turn our clothes inside out

 

617

00:18:35,314 --> 00:18:37,816

and vacuum that too. Hm.

 

618

00:18:37,816 --> 00:18:39,118

Yeah, we do that too.

 

619

00:18:39,118 --> 00:18:41,353

We call that our entry level cleansing.

 

620

00:18:41,353 --> 00:18:41,887

From there,

 

621

00:18:41,887 --> 00:18:44,156

we have actual Nassau equipment.

 

622

00:18:44,490 --> 00:18:45,190

You can't get it.

 

623

00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:46,992

It's not available anywhere.

 

624

00:18:46,992 --> 00:18:51,296

Oh, we have it.

 

625

00:18:51,296 --> 00:18:53,398

So I guess you guys seem

 

626

00:18:53,398 --> 00:18:54,766

pretty clean then.

 

627

00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,035

The cleanest.

 

628

00:18:57,035 --> 00:18:59,204

Well, our our equipment

 

629

00:18:59,204 --> 00:19:00,405

when we go to a job you said,

 

630

00:19:00,405 --> 00:19:04,476

what did you say your name was again?

 

631

00:19:04,476 --> 00:19:05,544

I didn't.

 

632

00:19:05,544 --> 00:19:06,478

I'd forget it.

 

633

00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:08,280

Anyhow, not important to me.

 

634

00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:09,515

Our equipment gets carried

 

635

00:19:09,515 --> 00:19:10,482

into every job.

 

636

00:19:10,482 --> 00:19:12,718

Wheels never touch the ground.

 

637

00:19:12,718 --> 00:19:16,722

The only thing they touch is the floors.

 

638

00:19:16,722 --> 00:19:16,955

Hmm.

 

639

00:19:18,423 --> 00:19:19,591

That's it, huh?

 

640

00:19:19,591 --> 00:19:20,559

Let me tell you it. We.

 

641

00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:22,861

We change our wheels every job.

 

642

00:19:23,962 --> 00:19:25,531

Yeah, we need a. Set of wheels.

 

643

00:19:25,531 --> 00:19:28,934

Yeah, we do that in the bearings.

 

644

00:19:28,934 --> 00:19:29,835

Okay.

 

645

00:19:30,936 --> 00:19:33,305

So I guess you guys install, too, huh?

 

646

00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:35,941

I'm going to tell you,

 

647

00:19:35,941 --> 00:19:37,342

looking at your boots,

 

648

00:19:37,342 --> 00:19:39,678

looking at your hands, looking at you,

 

649

00:19:39,945 --> 00:19:40,779

I'm going to say, yeah,

 

650

00:19:40,779 --> 00:19:42,781

we install probably more than you

 

651

00:19:44,550 --> 00:19:44,950

go.

 

652

00:19:45,150 --> 00:19:48,787

Well, let me tell you something.

 

653

00:19:48,787 --> 00:19:51,890

We do an amazing job of calling

 

654

00:19:53,492 --> 00:19:54,960

on our installs.

 

655

00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,596

Our customers get the absolute best

 

656

00:19:57,596 --> 00:20:00,299

looking flaws just because of our eye

 

657

00:20:01,333 --> 00:20:03,368

really killing.

 

658

00:20:03,368 --> 00:20:04,169

That's it.

 

659

00:20:04,670 --> 00:20:06,805

We check each board for ideal thickness

 

660

00:20:06,805 --> 00:20:09,274

using a go global industries micrometer.

 

661

00:20:10,142 --> 00:20:11,843

Then we check the board width

 

662

00:20:11,843 --> 00:20:13,245

with a global industry set of

 

663

00:20:13,245 --> 00:20:15,547

digital calipers. Okay. So

 

664

00:20:16,515 --> 00:20:17,616

yeah.

 

665

00:20:17,616 --> 00:20:18,550

So it

 

666

00:20:18,550 --> 00:20:19,885

sounds like you've got a thing for this

 

667

00:20:19,885 --> 00:20:21,553

global industries, huh?

 

668

00:20:21,553 --> 00:20:23,622

Oh. Trying to get a sponsor?

 

669

00:20:23,622 --> 00:20:27,693

Yeah.

 

670

00:20:27,693 --> 00:20:28,427

So it sounds like

 

671

00:20:28,427 --> 00:20:29,494

you go through a lot of wood.

 

672

00:20:29,494 --> 00:20:30,362

What are you doing

 

673

00:20:30,362 --> 00:20:32,664

with all the blends and discards?

 

674

00:20:32,664 --> 00:20:33,665

You know, to be honest with you,

 

675

00:20:33,665 --> 00:20:39,238

we sell in the company like yours, man.

 

676

00:20:39,238 --> 00:20:40,172

You just met me, man.

 

677

00:20:40,172 --> 00:20:41,974

That that kind of hurt.

 

678

00:20:41,974 --> 00:20:44,076

Yeah, well, you know, the truth hurts.

 

679

00:20:44,076 --> 00:20:45,410

Sorry, but.

 

680

00:20:45,410 --> 00:20:47,112

I. I doubt that.

 

681

00:20:47,112 --> 00:20:48,747

Well, let me ask you this, all right?

 

682

00:20:48,747 --> 00:20:49,848

Since we're talking flaws

 

683

00:20:49,848 --> 00:20:51,116

and you know what?

 

684

00:20:51,116 --> 00:20:52,651

You look like a floor guy.

 

685

00:20:52,651 --> 00:20:55,087

You guys, T-bar, you roll

 

686

00:20:55,120 --> 00:20:56,455

with T-bar.

 

687

00:20:56,455 --> 00:20:57,823

But let me tell you something.

 

688

00:20:57,823 --> 00:21:01,293

We put our sleeves through a three

 

689

00:21:01,293 --> 00:21:03,061

step rinse cycle to clean

 

690

00:21:03,061 --> 00:21:04,529

the fibers first, but.

 

691

00:21:05,897 --> 00:21:07,633

Only three step.

 

692

00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:09,835

We do five.

 

693

00:21:09,968 --> 00:21:11,236

I figured that.

 

694

00:21:11,236 --> 00:21:13,705

Yeah, but our three is equivalent

 

695

00:21:13,705 --> 00:21:15,907

to probably nine of your steps.

 

696

00:21:16,742 --> 00:21:17,709

Really.

 

697

00:21:18,143 --> 00:21:19,611

So it's interesting you say that

 

698

00:21:19,611 --> 00:21:20,245

because you know,

 

699

00:21:20,245 --> 00:21:22,414

you guys talk about t barring or rolling

 

700

00:21:22,414 --> 00:21:23,148

and we don't

 

701

00:21:23,148 --> 00:21:24,783

we don't do either

 

702

00:21:24,783 --> 00:21:27,185

we do what we call role bearing.

 

703

00:21:27,185 --> 00:21:31,089

You read about it one day.

 

704

00:21:31,089 --> 00:21:32,224

That's nice.

 

705

00:21:32,224 --> 00:21:34,593

Well, I'll tell you what we do,

 

706

00:21:34,860 --> 00:21:36,828

and I think any of the company

 

707

00:21:36,828 --> 00:21:38,297

does anything like this.

 

708

00:21:38,297 --> 00:21:40,699

I have my guys bring in separate shoes

 

709

00:21:41,033 --> 00:21:42,768

just for coding.

 

710

00:21:42,901 --> 00:21:43,669

Really?

 

711

00:21:44,503 --> 00:21:45,470

Well, you're going to appreciate

 

712

00:21:45,470 --> 00:21:46,471

this, then.

 

713

00:21:46,672 --> 00:21:47,205

Our guys

 

714

00:21:47,205 --> 00:21:49,708

sand off the soles of their shoes

 

715

00:21:49,708 --> 00:21:51,643

in case they need to walk in the finish.

 

716

00:21:51,643 --> 00:21:55,414

It doesn't leave any footprints.

 

717

00:21:55,414 --> 00:21:56,948

No footprints.

 

718

00:21:57,316 --> 00:22:00,018

We have a guy that has only one foot.

 

719

00:22:00,018 --> 00:22:00,652

It cuts down

 

720

00:22:00,652 --> 00:22:01,420

the possibilities

 

721

00:22:01,420 --> 00:22:04,456

by footprints by about a third.

 

722

00:22:04,456 --> 00:22:04,990

A third

 

723

00:22:06,258 --> 00:22:08,360

one out 50%.

 

724

00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,262

Well, he's only got one foot.

 

725

00:22:10,262 --> 00:22:11,496

He stumbles around.

 

726

00:22:11,496 --> 00:22:15,133

Sometimes it makes sense.

 

727

00:22:15,133 --> 00:22:15,534

Try

 

728

00:22:17,135 --> 00:22:18,270

another bear.

 

729

00:22:19,171 --> 00:22:20,672

Yeah. Oh, well, yeah.

 

730

00:22:20,672 --> 00:22:23,175

I go ahead and go buy me one too then.

 

731

00:22:23,275 --> 00:22:29,314

Yeah.

 

732

00:22:29,314 --> 00:22:34,553

You want me to buy you another bear?

 

733

00:22:34,553 --> 00:22:36,421

So where do you guys do your work?

 

734

00:22:36,421 --> 00:22:38,390

Where are you guys mostly working?

 

735

00:22:38,390 --> 00:22:41,159

See, on these side.

 

736

00:22:41,159 --> 00:22:41,927

Oh,

 

737

00:22:42,761 --> 00:22:44,763

well, we don't cross any bridges,

 

738

00:22:44,763 --> 00:22:45,797

too much traffic.

 

739

00:22:45,797 --> 00:22:48,133

We just don't have the time.

 

740

00:22:48,367 --> 00:22:51,870

Yeah, listen, we don't cross any streets.

 

741

00:22:51,870 --> 00:22:52,471

Really?

 

742

00:22:52,771 --> 00:22:53,705

Really?

 

743

00:22:53,705 --> 00:22:54,172

Yeah.

 

744

00:22:54,172 --> 00:22:54,706

All our work

 

745

00:22:54,706 --> 00:22:55,774

is on the same side of the street.

 

746

00:22:55,774 --> 00:22:56,975

We don't waste time on driving

 

747

00:22:56,975 --> 00:22:57,876

around so much.

 

748

00:22:57,876 --> 00:23:01,546

We got too much work.

 

749

00:23:01,546 --> 00:23:03,181

What about Chevron Force against you?

 

750

00:23:03,181 --> 00:23:04,683

Chevron Phillips.

 

751

00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:05,650

Buddy.

 

752

00:23:05,650 --> 00:23:09,588

My middle name is Chevron.

 

753

00:23:09,588 --> 00:23:10,422

That's pretty funny.

 

754

00:23:10,422 --> 00:23:12,424

My dad's middle name is Herringbone.

 

755

00:23:13,091 --> 00:23:13,825

Really?

 

756

00:23:13,825 --> 00:23:16,795

That actually predates Chevron case.

 

757

00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:17,596

He didn't know that.

 

758

00:23:17,596 --> 00:23:18,430

And his great uncle

 

759

00:23:18,430 --> 00:23:21,133

was Andrew Parallelogram.

 

760

00:23:21,133 --> 00:23:21,466

Huh.

 

761

00:23:21,867 --> 00:23:22,901

And I,

 

762

00:23:22,901 --> 00:23:23,535

I got to tell you,

 

763

00:23:23,535 --> 00:23:25,203

I hated algebra in high school.

 

764

00:23:25,203 --> 00:23:26,104

I asked my teacher

 

765

00:23:26,104 --> 00:23:28,407

when I ever use this crap,

 

766

00:23:28,407 --> 00:23:29,941

and you know what he said?

 

767

00:23:29,941 --> 00:23:32,277

He goes, You won't, but the smart kids

 

768

00:23:32,277 --> 00:23:36,581

will.

 

769

00:23:36,581 --> 00:23:39,351

You know, the one thing is that we

 

770

00:23:41,486 --> 00:23:43,455

really strive

 

771

00:23:43,455 --> 00:23:47,025

to make the flattest floors.

 

772

00:23:47,025 --> 00:23:47,325

Yeah.

 

773

00:23:47,325 --> 00:23:49,795

So, you know, we,

 

774

00:23:49,795 --> 00:23:51,363

we don't strive to get them flat.

 

775

00:23:51,363 --> 00:23:54,466

We do get them flat.

 

776

00:23:54,466 --> 00:23:56,334

How flat do you get them?

 

777

00:23:56,802 --> 00:23:58,937

Rule of thumb, if you got to ask, it

 

778

00:23:58,937 --> 00:24:02,641

ain't flat enough.

 

779

00:24:03,141 --> 00:24:04,743

It's been a long beer.

 

780

00:24:04,743 --> 00:24:07,112

Tell you your personality is pretty flat.

 

781

00:24:08,380 --> 00:24:08,880

Yeah, it was.

 

782

00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,449

So's your butt.

 

783

00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:11,116

All right.

 

784

00:24:11,116 --> 00:24:13,118

This is getting weird.

 

785

00:24:13,118 --> 00:24:14,653

You got weird?

 

786

00:24:15,554 --> 00:24:17,289

Well, I got to take off.

 

787

00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:19,558

I got to go. Go to floor. Just one.

 

788

00:24:20,158 --> 00:24:20,725

I got to go.

 

789

00:24:20,725 --> 00:24:21,493

Three

 

790

00:24:24,763 --> 00:24:26,331

are right, Rob.

 

791

00:24:26,331 --> 00:24:27,165

That's our.

 

792

00:24:27,165 --> 00:24:27,833

That's our

 

793

00:24:27,833 --> 00:24:28,733

St Patrick's

 

794

00:24:28,733 --> 00:24:32,337

Day conversation between two, four guys.

 

795

00:24:32,337 --> 00:24:33,672

Two knuckleheads.

 

796

00:24:33,672 --> 00:24:35,707

And one of those guys that actually

 

797

00:24:35,707 --> 00:24:35,974

I think

 

798

00:24:35,974 --> 00:24:37,742

both of them were the definite

 

799

00:24:37,742 --> 00:24:39,911

Johnny one uppers.

 

800

00:24:39,911 --> 00:24:42,080

There's an expression expressions

 

801

00:24:42,113 --> 00:24:43,748

of for country music fanatics

 

802

00:24:43,748 --> 00:24:45,383

is a country within Dow

 

803

00:24:47,752 --> 00:24:49,788

or sometimes you see rock and roll guys

 

804

00:24:50,188 --> 00:24:50,956

rock and rollers

 

805

00:24:50,956 --> 00:24:53,658

at the physically old guys

 

806

00:24:53,658 --> 00:24:53,959

man.

 

807

00:24:53,959 --> 00:24:56,094

I saw Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

 

808

00:24:56,094 --> 00:24:57,362

when they were playing at the

 

809

00:24:57,362 --> 00:24:58,897

the Paramount Theater

 

810

00:24:58,897 --> 00:25:00,932

and they just got started.

 

811

00:25:00,932 --> 00:25:02,000

Yeah, blah, blah, blah.

 

812

00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:02,567

No kidding.

 

813

00:25:02,567 --> 00:25:05,670

Well, yeah, I was at X amount x concert

 

814

00:25:05,670 --> 00:25:06,671

with when they before

 

815

00:25:06,671 --> 00:25:08,707

they brought this lead guitar in awe.

 

816

00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:10,475

And it's funny

 

817

00:25:10,475 --> 00:25:12,477

when you listen to country guys

 

818

00:25:12,477 --> 00:25:13,512

that listen to country music,

 

819

00:25:13,512 --> 00:25:16,081

they're like, no, every single

 

820

00:25:16,615 --> 00:25:18,083

country music, every cracks

 

821

00:25:18,083 --> 00:25:20,785

and crevice of the of the music industry.

 

822

00:25:22,487 --> 00:25:23,555

So yeah.

 

823

00:25:24,289 --> 00:25:24,990

You know,

 

824

00:25:24,990 --> 00:25:27,192

you know, what was funny about what

 

825

00:25:27,192 --> 00:25:28,193

we just read

 

826

00:25:28,193 --> 00:25:29,995

as we were talking about doing this

 

827

00:25:29,995 --> 00:25:31,263

and everything?

 

828

00:25:32,097 --> 00:25:32,531

E

 

829

00:25:33,965 --> 00:25:35,033

I think one of the things

 

830

00:25:35,033 --> 00:25:36,601

that when you and I met

 

831

00:25:36,601 --> 00:25:37,869

and we kind of hit it off

 

832

00:25:37,869 --> 00:25:40,572

way, way back then, it's because of

 

833

00:25:40,572 --> 00:25:42,707

it's our stories. You know what I mean?

 

834

00:25:43,708 --> 00:25:45,410

And you had tons of stories.

 

835

00:25:45,410 --> 00:25:46,411

I had tons of stories,

 

836

00:25:46,411 --> 00:25:48,246

whether it was work, family,

 

837

00:25:48,246 --> 00:25:48,547

you know,

 

838

00:25:48,547 --> 00:25:51,750

and they were all kind of goofy and

 

839

00:25:53,618 --> 00:25:54,753

I hope that

 

840

00:25:54,753 --> 00:25:56,054

when I'm talking to guys

 

841

00:25:56,054 --> 00:25:57,789

that people never think

 

842

00:25:57,789 --> 00:25:58,957

I'm trying to one up them.

 

843

00:25:58,957 --> 00:25:59,925

I mean, those two guys

 

844

00:25:59,925 --> 00:26:02,127

trying to one up each other.

 

845

00:26:02,127 --> 00:26:03,061

But, you know,

 

846

00:26:03,061 --> 00:26:04,296

you hear a story

 

847

00:26:04,296 --> 00:26:06,031

and I'll tell stories and classes

 

848

00:26:06,031 --> 00:26:07,465

and everything.

 

849

00:26:07,465 --> 00:26:09,100

And I hope nobody ever thinks

 

850

00:26:09,100 --> 00:26:10,368

that I'm trying to one up them.

 

851

00:26:10,368 --> 00:26:11,503

It's just

 

852

00:26:11,903 --> 00:26:13,572

everybody wants to tell their stories,

 

853

00:26:13,572 --> 00:26:13,939

you know?

 

854

00:26:13,939 --> 00:26:15,440

And then the guy's telling a story

 

855

00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:16,207

and you're thinking,

 

856

00:26:16,207 --> 00:26:18,076

oh, my God, you know,

 

857

00:26:18,076 --> 00:26:19,210

here's the same kind of thing

 

858

00:26:19,210 --> 00:26:20,312

that happened to me

 

859

00:26:20,312 --> 00:26:23,481

just storytelling and not in a,

 

860

00:26:23,982 --> 00:26:25,550

you know, one,

 

861

00:26:25,550 --> 00:26:27,118

one trying to one up the guy.

 

862

00:26:27,118 --> 00:26:28,620

You're just trying to

 

863

00:26:28,620 --> 00:26:30,288

just hear more funny stories.

 

864

00:26:30,288 --> 00:26:31,089

That's what I think.

 

865

00:26:32,657 --> 00:26:33,091

Man.

 

866

00:26:33,091 --> 00:26:33,992

You and I both know the

 

867

00:26:33,992 --> 00:26:35,527

same guy, and I won't mention his name.

 

868

00:26:35,527 --> 00:26:36,328

He's not in the industry

 

869

00:26:36,328 --> 00:26:39,931

anymore, but man,

 

870

00:26:39,931 --> 00:26:40,966

oh, man,

 

871

00:26:40,966 --> 00:26:43,902

you could not beat him in a one up story.

 

872

00:26:44,569 --> 00:26:46,671

And no matter what you did,

 

873

00:26:46,871 --> 00:26:48,039

he would tell the next story

 

874

00:26:48,039 --> 00:26:50,075

that would blow yours out of the water.

 

875

00:26:50,075 --> 00:26:51,643

And I tell him sometimes,

 

876

00:26:51,643 --> 00:26:52,677

dude, you got to let the other guy

 

877

00:26:52,677 --> 00:26:54,479

win once in a while, man.

 

878

00:26:54,479 --> 00:26:56,014

I mean, you know,

 

879

00:26:56,014 --> 00:26:57,716

you did a floor where

 

880

00:26:57,716 --> 00:27:00,018

they put me on a helicopter and they

 

881

00:27:01,052 --> 00:27:03,254

they flew me to Peru.

 

882

00:27:03,254 --> 00:27:04,623

And yeah,

 

883

00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:06,091

when it's cool working in the jungle,

 

884

00:27:06,091 --> 00:27:08,159

you know, blah, blah, blah.

 

885

00:27:08,159 --> 00:27:10,295

And then just, oh man, every story.

 

886

00:27:10,295 --> 00:27:11,262

I used to make up stuff

 

887

00:27:11,262 --> 00:27:12,097

just to see

 

888

00:27:12,097 --> 00:27:13,598

if you could pass that one up.

 

889

00:27:13,598 --> 00:27:14,666

And he would always be me.

 

890

00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:17,135

Now, now here's

 

891

00:27:17,135 --> 00:27:18,503

a I'm going to it's going to sound like

 

892

00:27:18,503 --> 00:27:20,138

I'm trying to one up what you just said.

 

893

00:27:20,138 --> 00:27:22,607

I can't believe that we're doing this.

 

894

00:27:23,708 --> 00:27:25,610

We're in the 10th grade

 

895

00:27:25,610 --> 00:27:26,544

and a couple of buddies

 

896

00:27:26,544 --> 00:27:27,646

of my in the neighborhood

 

897

00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:32,651

and one of my buddies says to me, man,

 

898

00:27:32,684 --> 00:27:35,854

oh, man, this this guy, no matter what

 

899

00:27:35,854 --> 00:27:38,923

we say, his is better.

 

900

00:27:38,923 --> 00:27:40,425

Everything his is better.

 

901

00:27:40,425 --> 00:27:42,927

His and and the kid

 

902

00:27:42,927 --> 00:27:43,928

kid he was talking about

 

903

00:27:43,928 --> 00:27:45,096

was came from a,

 

904

00:27:45,096 --> 00:27:47,032

you know, kind of rich side of town.

 

905

00:27:47,032 --> 00:27:49,067

His parents had some money

 

906

00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:51,369

and I you know, I'm in 10th grade.

 

907

00:27:51,369 --> 00:27:53,505

I never really, you know, paid attention.

 

908

00:27:53,538 --> 00:27:54,305

Right.

 

909

00:27:54,472 --> 00:27:57,042

And he goes, I'll prove tell Shorty.

 

910

00:27:57,042 --> 00:27:58,076

So no.

 

911

00:27:58,076 --> 00:28:00,378

The next day we're sitting in a cafeteria

 

912

00:28:00,412 --> 00:28:01,613

eating lunch with this guy.

 

913

00:28:02,714 --> 00:28:04,883

And Sal says,

 

914

00:28:04,883 --> 00:28:06,818

man, you know,

 

915

00:28:06,818 --> 00:28:09,788

we have the absolute fastest toilet

 

916

00:28:10,055 --> 00:28:11,623

in the town.

 

917

00:28:11,623 --> 00:28:11,956

He goes,

 

918

00:28:11,956 --> 00:28:13,391

I don't know

 

919

00:28:13,391 --> 00:28:15,293

if we got a special toilet,

 

920

00:28:15,293 --> 00:28:20,465

but our toilet flushes faster.

 

921

00:28:20,465 --> 00:28:23,268

And I'm not even thinking

 

922

00:28:24,135 --> 00:28:25,270

about what he had said.

 

923

00:28:25,270 --> 00:28:27,205

And I'm thinking,

 

924

00:28:27,205 --> 00:28:29,374

Wow, what the hell's he talking to?

 

925

00:28:29,374 --> 00:28:31,176

Who cares about this stuff?

 

926

00:28:31,176 --> 00:28:33,545

Well, don't you think the kid

 

927

00:28:33,545 --> 00:28:35,580

who's the Johnny went up or he goes,

 

928

00:28:35,580 --> 00:28:37,215

We'll go to my house right now.

 

929

00:28:37,215 --> 00:28:40,151

Oh, are toilet. It is.

 

930

00:28:40,318 --> 00:28:41,119

And then he hit me

 

931

00:28:41,119 --> 00:28:44,155

and I am like bursting, right?

 

932

00:28:44,522 --> 00:28:45,590

I am bursting.

 

933

00:28:45,590 --> 00:28:47,092

And I'm looking at Sal going,

 

934

00:28:47,092 --> 00:28:49,861

Oh, you're the man that was that.

 

935

00:28:50,462 --> 00:28:52,397

Now I get it. Okay.

 

936

00:28:52,397 --> 00:28:54,466

And then once the cat was out of the bag

 

937

00:28:54,466 --> 00:28:55,333

there and I was like,

 

938

00:28:55,333 --> 00:28:56,768

Oh, my God, you're right.

 

939

00:28:56,768 --> 00:28:57,602

I never

 

940

00:28:57,802 --> 00:28:58,737

it actually starts

 

941

00:28:58,737 --> 00:29:00,405

to drive me crazy about this kid

 

942

00:29:00,405 --> 00:29:02,841

no matter what. Wow. Wow.

 

943

00:29:04,109 --> 00:29:04,976

No, I

 

944

00:29:04,976 --> 00:29:06,611

don't think we're ever trying to one up.

 

945

00:29:06,611 --> 00:29:07,879

I just think

 

946

00:29:07,879 --> 00:29:08,947

we keep the conversation

 

947

00:29:08,947 --> 00:29:10,982

going with funny stories. And yeah.

 

948

00:29:11,416 --> 00:29:12,317

I mean, half of the,

 

949

00:29:12,317 --> 00:29:15,019

you know, half of the time

 

950

00:29:15,353 --> 00:29:17,455

I don't even remember

 

951

00:29:17,455 --> 00:29:18,323

any of these stories

 

952

00:29:18,323 --> 00:29:20,492

until or I'm pretty sure it's happened

 

953

00:29:20,492 --> 00:29:22,327

with you two all at once.

 

954

00:29:22,327 --> 00:29:23,461

A guy starts telling a story

 

955

00:29:23,461 --> 00:29:24,262

like, Oh, God,

 

956

00:29:24,262 --> 00:29:27,198

I remember when this happened and it's

 

957

00:29:27,198 --> 00:29:29,400

Yeah. It's funny.

 

958

00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,970

When you and I first met is

 

959

00:29:32,637 --> 00:29:33,404

I was interviewing

 

960

00:29:33,404 --> 00:29:35,874

for a job as a sales rep at the time,

 

961

00:29:36,407 --> 00:29:38,443

and I met the main guy in charge

 

962

00:29:38,443 --> 00:29:40,111

who also is now out of the industry.

 

963

00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:42,280

Hard to believe he just retired

 

964

00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:43,915

inas Farnsworth

 

965

00:29:43,915 --> 00:29:47,485

and who gave me my start never forgets

 

966

00:29:47,552 --> 00:29:48,186

to tell me that.

 

967

00:29:50,922 --> 00:29:52,457

I thought it was me.

 

968

00:29:52,457 --> 00:29:54,626

Now he tells me he dragged me out to go.

 

969

00:29:54,659 --> 00:29:55,860

I know.

 

970

00:29:55,860 --> 00:29:57,529

I thought I gave in.

 

971

00:29:57,529 --> 00:30:00,298

Is. Well, you did, but go ahead.

 

972

00:30:00,465 --> 00:30:02,467

Yeah, but he really. Wanted to hire you.

 

973

00:30:02,467 --> 00:30:04,302

He ran the show, though.

 

974

00:30:04,302 --> 00:30:05,170

But you were.

 

975

00:30:05,170 --> 00:30:06,871

You were the next gatekeeper,

 

976

00:30:06,871 --> 00:30:08,706

so I was nervous meeting you.

 

977

00:30:08,706 --> 00:30:10,875

And because I didn't know Rob Johnson.

 

978

00:30:10,875 --> 00:30:11,576

I know you. Were.

 

979

00:30:11,576 --> 00:30:13,711

That is so funny to hear that.

 

980

00:30:13,711 --> 00:30:15,346

Yeah, he was meeting me.

 

981

00:30:15,346 --> 00:30:16,381

That's a good one.

 

982

00:30:16,381 --> 00:30:17,882

And when

 

983

00:30:17,882 --> 00:30:18,349

we sat

 

984

00:30:18,349 --> 00:30:19,484

down in that restaurant

 

985

00:30:19,484 --> 00:30:21,719

and started talking,

 

986

00:30:22,187 --> 00:30:24,255

I mean, I've never met you before.

 

987

00:30:24,255 --> 00:30:25,890

Your whole life was on the East Coast.

 

988

00:30:25,890 --> 00:30:28,159

Mine was on the West Coast doing floors,

 

989

00:30:28,159 --> 00:30:30,428

and we just started talking floors.

 

990

00:30:30,428 --> 00:30:31,196

And it was a

 

991

00:30:31,196 --> 00:30:32,163

I swear to God,

 

992

00:30:32,163 --> 00:30:32,664

I went home

 

993

00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:34,599

and I told my wife, she goes, How

 

994

00:30:34,599 --> 00:30:36,201

did it go? I go, Man,

 

995

00:30:37,202 --> 00:30:38,970

I feel like I got a brother

 

996

00:30:38,970 --> 00:30:40,505

that I never knew existed.

 

997

00:30:40,505 --> 00:30:42,340

And I, I just met him.

 

998

00:30:42,340 --> 00:30:43,308

I mean, he's amazing.

 

999

00:30:43,308 --> 00:30:45,577

There's our similar.

 

1000

00:30:45,577 --> 00:30:47,745

And for me

 

1001

00:30:47,779 --> 00:30:50,114

to surpass you by so much.

 

1002

00:30:52,951 --> 00:30:53,651

So.

 

1003

00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,422

Like I was standing still.

 

1004

00:30:57,589 --> 00:31:00,825

Unbelievable and you just the trajectory.

 

1005

00:31:00,892 --> 00:31:02,193

Marathon.

 

1006

00:31:02,193 --> 00:31:04,295

Yeah yeah yeah yeah.

 

1007

00:31:04,329 --> 00:31:06,064

Oh well you know I.

 

1008

00:31:06,064 --> 00:31:07,599

Might interview you for,

 

1009

00:31:07,599 --> 00:31:11,669

for your next promotion or something.

 

1010

00:31:11,669 --> 00:31:13,104

Well yeah. Oh me.

 

1011

00:31:13,104 --> 00:31:15,206

Like I said I, you know, I gave,

 

1012

00:31:15,707 --> 00:31:16,841

I gave the thumbs up.

 

1013

00:31:16,841 --> 00:31:18,810

Little did I know that. Yeah.

 

1014

00:31:18,810 --> 00:31:20,345

I was being replaced.

 

1015

00:31:20,345 --> 00:31:22,981

Mm. I didn't see that one coming did I.

 

1016

00:31:23,047 --> 00:31:24,549

Yeah. Yeah.

 

1017

00:31:24,549 --> 00:31:26,084

You know I remember inside.

 

1018

00:31:26,084 --> 00:31:27,452

Oh you got to meet this guy.

 

1019

00:31:27,452 --> 00:31:28,353

He's,

 

1020

00:31:28,419 --> 00:31:29,387

he's going to be the West

 

1021

00:31:29,387 --> 00:31:30,455

Coast Rob Johnson.

 

1022

00:31:30,455 --> 00:31:32,690

And I was like, Oh yeah, okay,

 

1023

00:31:33,258 --> 00:31:33,892

here we go.

 

1024

00:31:33,892 --> 00:31:35,660

And the whole time

 

1025

00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:37,195

he's talking about your book,

 

1026

00:31:37,195 --> 00:31:38,630

I guess you brought some book

 

1027

00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:40,365

of all your jobs and everything.

 

1028

00:31:40,365 --> 00:31:40,832

And back

 

1029

00:31:40,832 --> 00:31:42,300

then we didn't have cameras back then.

 

1030

00:31:42,300 --> 00:31:43,301

Yeah, yeah. Right.

 

1031

00:31:44,302 --> 00:31:45,637

And you had this big,

 

1032

00:31:45,637 --> 00:31:47,138

big book of all your,

 

1033

00:31:47,138 --> 00:31:47,505

you know,

 

1034

00:31:47,505 --> 00:31:50,141

accomplishments and everything and

 

1035

00:31:50,141 --> 00:31:52,577

so I'm sitting within a couple days later

 

1036

00:31:52,577 --> 00:31:53,745

and he's like, So,

 

1037

00:31:53,745 --> 00:31:54,579

you know, what do you think?

 

1038

00:31:54,579 --> 00:31:56,881

I go, Oh, yeah, the guy's,

 

1039

00:31:56,881 --> 00:31:58,716

you know, the guy's great.

 

1040

00:31:58,716 --> 00:32:00,818

You know, it would be really fun

 

1041

00:32:01,352 --> 00:32:02,687

to start doing some stuff with him.

 

1042

00:32:02,687 --> 00:32:03,554

And he goes, Well,

 

1043

00:32:03,554 --> 00:32:05,657

what do you think of his book?

 

1044

00:32:05,690 --> 00:32:07,558

I said, What book?

 

1045

00:32:08,192 --> 00:32:10,028

And he goes, Well, didn't

 

1046

00:32:10,028 --> 00:32:11,095

he bring the book of all

 

1047

00:32:11,095 --> 00:32:13,197

his jobs like an anus?

 

1048

00:32:13,197 --> 00:32:14,699

The last thing a floor man

 

1049

00:32:14,699 --> 00:32:16,000

wants to look at, just another floor

 

1050

00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:16,801

man's book.

 

1051

00:32:16,801 --> 00:32:18,136

Okay, I go.

 

1052

00:32:18,136 --> 00:32:20,672

My, you know, interest people like you.

 

1053

00:32:21,239 --> 00:32:23,074

But for man to floor man he's

 

1054

00:32:23,074 --> 00:32:25,143

going to whip out a book and start

 

1055

00:32:25,376 --> 00:32:26,911

you know here's what I did

 

1056

00:32:26,911 --> 00:32:29,113

type of a thing never going to happen.

 

1057

00:32:29,113 --> 00:32:30,949

Besides when I carry that book

 

1058

00:32:30,949 --> 00:32:33,451

of accomplishments, it's so heavy

 

1059

00:32:35,553 --> 00:32:37,789

you can't carry it two days in a row.

 

1060

00:32:37,789 --> 00:32:39,791

You didn't break the floor man's code.

 

1061

00:32:40,325 --> 00:32:44,228

No, no.

 

1062

00:32:44,228 --> 00:32:44,929

All right.

 

1063

00:32:44,929 --> 00:32:46,130

I'm going to talk about

 

1064

00:32:46,130 --> 00:32:47,699

I'm going to talk about

 

1065

00:32:47,699 --> 00:32:48,599

a couple of things here.

 

1066

00:32:48,599 --> 00:32:50,401

Rob, wait a minute.

 

1067

00:32:50,401 --> 00:32:51,269

Go ahead.

 

1068

00:32:51,269 --> 00:32:52,971

Wait a minute.

 

1069

00:32:52,971 --> 00:32:55,707

Is one of them going to be vertical?

 

1070

00:32:55,707 --> 00:32:57,542

Yeah. Good.

 

1071

00:32:57,542 --> 00:32:59,243

Because

 

1072

00:32:59,610 --> 00:33:02,013

in my last few classes,

 

1073

00:33:02,013 --> 00:33:04,382

there seems to be a buzz around vertical.

 

1074

00:33:05,550 --> 00:33:08,419

So let's let's definitely

 

1075

00:33:08,419 --> 00:33:10,221

give you your $0.02 on vertical.

 

1076

00:33:10,221 --> 00:33:11,723

You can't use vertical

 

1077

00:33:11,723 --> 00:33:13,591

and not love that product.

 

1078

00:33:13,591 --> 00:33:14,792

It comes in

 

1079

00:33:14,792 --> 00:33:16,127

in the in the tubes,

 

1080

00:33:16,127 --> 00:33:18,663

the cartridges for adhesives.

 

1081

00:33:18,663 --> 00:33:18,930

You know,

 

1082

00:33:18,930 --> 00:33:19,964

when we first came out with

 

1083

00:33:19,964 --> 00:33:22,667

it was for for doing wall treatments

 

1084

00:33:23,101 --> 00:33:24,802

because it sticks and grabs

 

1085

00:33:24,802 --> 00:33:26,738

like unbelievably.

 

1086

00:33:26,738 --> 00:33:29,474

And so we advertise it for doing that.

 

1087

00:33:29,474 --> 00:33:31,309

But guys are finding using it

 

1088

00:33:31,309 --> 00:33:31,776

for stair

 

1089

00:33:31,776 --> 00:33:33,277

treads and razors and everything

 

1090

00:33:33,277 --> 00:33:35,313

else, all kinds of different things.

 

1091

00:33:35,313 --> 00:33:36,347

I actually took it.

 

1092

00:33:36,347 --> 00:33:38,583

I took I took two blocks to

 

1093

00:33:40,184 --> 00:33:41,886

landscape blocks together.

 

1094

00:33:41,886 --> 00:33:43,521

I glued them together

 

1095

00:33:43,521 --> 00:33:46,257

and I and I just do it outside.

 

1096

00:33:46,257 --> 00:33:48,626

It's been five years now of free star

 

1097

00:33:49,127 --> 00:33:51,229

winters. Rain, rain, rain.

 

1098

00:33:51,229 --> 00:33:51,829

And you

 

1099

00:33:51,829 --> 00:33:52,830

you can't

 

1100

00:33:52,830 --> 00:33:54,065

you have to break the blocks,

 

1101

00:33:54,065 --> 00:33:55,099

physically break the blocks

 

1102

00:33:55,099 --> 00:33:56,401

and get it apart.

 

1103

00:33:56,467 --> 00:33:57,735

The sheer

 

1104

00:33:57,735 --> 00:33:59,971

strength of that stuff is unreal.

 

1105

00:33:59,971 --> 00:34:00,938

So yeah, that's the one

 

1106

00:34:00,938 --> 00:34:02,640

I wanted to talk about.

 

1107

00:34:02,774 --> 00:34:05,309

The other thing is I really want

 

1108

00:34:05,309 --> 00:34:06,344

I really, you know,

 

1109

00:34:06,344 --> 00:34:08,613

we talk about green card gold

 

1110

00:34:08,613 --> 00:34:10,181

with our adhesives

 

1111

00:34:10,181 --> 00:34:10,982

and you know,

 

1112

00:34:10,982 --> 00:34:12,750

and I talked to just visiting a retailer

 

1113

00:34:12,750 --> 00:34:13,818

the other day

 

1114

00:34:13,818 --> 00:34:16,320

and I asked, I said, you know,

 

1115

00:34:17,188 --> 00:34:18,723

you know, if you think about it,

 

1116

00:34:18,723 --> 00:34:20,792

just a half inch underneath that floor,

 

1117

00:34:21,225 --> 00:34:22,293

if it's a half inch thick

 

1118

00:34:22,293 --> 00:34:23,861

floor, half inch under that floor

 

1119

00:34:23,861 --> 00:34:25,630

is a sea of chemicals.

 

1120

00:34:25,630 --> 00:34:26,064

Okay?

 

1121

00:34:26,064 --> 00:34:27,231

A sea of chemicals

 

1122

00:34:27,231 --> 00:34:27,865

right below

 

1123

00:34:27,865 --> 00:34:29,000

where they're laying on the floor,

 

1124

00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:29,767

walking on the floor,

 

1125

00:34:29,767 --> 00:34:31,069

sleeping on the floor,

 

1126

00:34:31,069 --> 00:34:32,770

crawling on the floor.

 

1127

00:34:32,770 --> 00:34:34,238

A half inch below that

 

1128

00:34:34,238 --> 00:34:36,474

is a sea of chemicals. And,

 

1129

00:34:37,508 --> 00:34:37,809

you know,

 

1130

00:34:37,809 --> 00:34:39,510

this goes towards indoor air quality.

 

1131

00:34:39,510 --> 00:34:39,911

So we one of

 

1132

00:34:39,911 --> 00:34:41,312

the industry is safe for children,

 

1133

00:34:41,312 --> 00:34:43,247

schools and hospitals. Right.

 

1134

00:34:43,247 --> 00:34:45,583

So he said is as a sales manager

 

1135

00:34:45,583 --> 00:34:49,620

at a retail store, he said, well,

 

1136

00:34:49,620 --> 00:34:52,390

people don't really ask about that.

 

1137

00:34:52,690 --> 00:34:55,793

And I said to myself,

 

1138

00:34:55,793 --> 00:34:57,929

You're a sales manager.

 

1139

00:34:57,929 --> 00:35:00,298

Do you really think that the clients know

 

1140

00:35:00,298 --> 00:35:02,300

that the consumers know about that?

 

1141

00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:03,301

You know what I mean?

 

1142

00:35:03,301 --> 00:35:05,136

But if you were to educate them

 

1143

00:35:05,136 --> 00:35:06,637

and say that, hey,

 

1144

00:35:06,637 --> 00:35:07,738

I don't know if you're aware or not,

 

1145

00:35:07,738 --> 00:35:08,072

but there's

 

1146

00:35:08,072 --> 00:35:09,440

a lot of these things that off

 

1147

00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,943

gas, some nasty, nasty chemicals,

 

1148

00:35:11,943 --> 00:35:12,243

all right.

 

1149

00:35:12,243 --> 00:35:12,877

That we breathe

 

1150

00:35:12,877 --> 00:35:15,179

everything that they emit. Okay.

 

1151

00:35:15,179 --> 00:35:16,714

So, you know,

 

1152

00:35:16,714 --> 00:35:17,315

you can you can

 

1153

00:35:17,315 --> 00:35:18,850

you can choose this one

 

1154

00:35:18,850 --> 00:35:20,585

and it's the safest one you can get.

 

1155

00:35:22,019 --> 00:35:24,288

Would it make a difference then?

 

1156

00:35:24,288 --> 00:35:25,123

And he goes, Gosh, yeah,

 

1157

00:35:25,123 --> 00:35:26,891

I hadn't thought about it like that.

 

1158

00:35:26,891 --> 00:35:29,427

So I just think it's not enough to say

 

1159

00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:30,695

that I use, you

 

1160

00:35:30,695 --> 00:35:31,929

know, bonus products

 

1161

00:35:31,929 --> 00:35:33,464

or green card or whatever

 

1162

00:35:33,464 --> 00:35:35,233

that he says green card, gold.

 

1163

00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:35,933

I think you really have

 

1164

00:35:35,933 --> 00:35:37,702

to tell that story

 

1165

00:35:37,702 --> 00:35:39,003

to help sell your jobs.

 

1166

00:35:39,003 --> 00:35:39,437

And, you know,

 

1167

00:35:39,437 --> 00:35:40,104

I think a lot of the

 

1168

00:35:40,104 --> 00:35:41,205

consumers and clients

 

1169

00:35:41,205 --> 00:35:43,841

don't know what they don't know.

 

1170

00:35:43,841 --> 00:35:45,343

And if you were to say,

 

1171

00:35:45,343 --> 00:35:46,511

yeah, well, you know,

 

1172

00:35:46,511 --> 00:35:47,612

nobody asked about that

 

1173

00:35:47,612 --> 00:35:48,212

because they didn't know.

 

1174

00:35:48,212 --> 00:35:50,581

Well, the consumer doesn't know,

 

1175

00:35:50,581 --> 00:35:52,216

but they know that they want

 

1176

00:35:52,216 --> 00:35:53,351

indoor health quality.

 

1177

00:35:53,351 --> 00:35:55,019

Right. Indoor air quality.

 

1178

00:35:55,019 --> 00:35:56,220

They know that they don't want their kids

 

1179

00:35:56,220 --> 00:35:57,221

crawling around the floor

 

1180

00:35:57,221 --> 00:35:57,688

just right

 

1181

00:35:57,688 --> 00:35:59,023

above all these nasty chemicals

 

1182

00:35:59,023 --> 00:35:59,390

that are off

 

1183

00:35:59,390 --> 00:36:01,092

gassing those type of things.

 

1184

00:36:01,092 --> 00:36:02,293

And by the way, Rob

 

1185

00:36:02,293 --> 00:36:03,461

So yeah, that's the two things I wanted

 

1186

00:36:03,461 --> 00:36:04,061

to talk about.

 

1187

00:36:05,630 --> 00:36:07,598

Can I interrupt you 1/2.

 

1188

00:36:07,598 --> 00:36:08,733

Please? You interrupt me.

 

1189

00:36:08,733 --> 00:36:09,200

I'm going to.

 

1190

00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,102

Well, if I ask to interrupt,

 

1191

00:36:11,102 --> 00:36:12,737

I guess it's not interrupting.

 

1192

00:36:12,737 --> 00:36:13,604

I get to say this

 

1193

00:36:13,604 --> 00:36:15,773

because I don't want to forget it.

 

1194

00:36:16,407 --> 00:36:20,244

What you just said.

 

1195

00:36:20,244 --> 00:36:22,580

I know I wrap everything around sports,

 

1196

00:36:23,214 --> 00:36:24,482

but are you going to score

 

1197

00:36:24,482 --> 00:36:27,151

more points on offense or defense

 

1198

00:36:29,587 --> 00:36:30,388

offense?

 

1199

00:36:30,388 --> 00:36:32,690

Yeah, right. Offense.

 

1200

00:36:32,690 --> 00:36:34,559

So if we're going into an estimate,

 

1201

00:36:34,559 --> 00:36:36,060

why are you just going in ready

 

1202

00:36:36,060 --> 00:36:38,329

to answer questions and play defense?

 

1203

00:36:38,329 --> 00:36:41,666

Yeah, you got to be going in full or

 

1204

00:36:42,233 --> 00:36:43,434

we want to score points

 

1205

00:36:43,434 --> 00:36:45,336

here, want to land this job

 

1206

00:36:45,336 --> 00:36:47,572

on land this job for some money.

 

1207

00:36:47,572 --> 00:36:48,773

I mean, the school

 

1208

00:36:48,773 --> 00:36:51,876

I just did up in Toronto and once

 

1209

00:36:51,909 --> 00:36:53,377

remember we did that

 

1210

00:36:53,377 --> 00:36:56,347

adhesive one where we talked about.

 

1211

00:36:56,881 --> 00:37:00,251

How did you get into Toronto?

 

1212

00:37:00,251 --> 00:37:02,386

I met. Them. Right. Go ahead, solo.

 

1213

00:37:03,054 --> 00:37:04,188

No, that's okay.

 

1214

00:37:04,188 --> 00:37:04,855

All right.

 

1215

00:37:05,356 --> 00:37:06,257

But, you know,

 

1216

00:37:06,257 --> 00:37:07,992

we talked about looking at adhesives

 

1217

00:37:07,992 --> 00:37:09,360

in a whole new way.

 

1218

00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,127

Okay.

 

1219

00:37:10,461 --> 00:37:11,495

And I got going

 

1220

00:37:11,495 --> 00:37:12,930

about all the green garden

 

1221

00:37:12,930 --> 00:37:14,265

products and green garden

 

1222

00:37:14,265 --> 00:37:16,234

and just sell this

 

1223

00:37:16,234 --> 00:37:18,536

go on the offense with this. Right.

 

1224

00:37:18,769 --> 00:37:20,571

And now even with the adhesives,

 

1225

00:37:20,571 --> 00:37:21,239

I mean, that's

 

1226

00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:25,509

all part of the HEPA vac systems, right?

 

1227

00:37:25,509 --> 00:37:27,845

Green guard on the finishes.

 

1228

00:37:27,845 --> 00:37:28,446

Same thing

 

1229

00:37:28,446 --> 00:37:30,848

on our adhesives, the green guard gold,

 

1230

00:37:31,649 --> 00:37:32,750

the high quality,

 

1231

00:37:32,750 --> 00:37:34,819

air quality, all that stuff.

 

1232

00:37:34,819 --> 00:37:37,188

That's all offense. Yeah.

 

1233

00:37:37,188 --> 00:37:40,524

And I said to the class, I go, you want

 

1234

00:37:40,558 --> 00:37:42,693

when you leave this estimate,

 

1235

00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:44,729

you want that person

 

1236

00:37:44,729 --> 00:37:45,997

Googling Green Guard.

 

1237

00:37:47,131 --> 00:37:49,200

So we all Google Green Guard.

 

1238

00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,701

Have you ever Google Green Guard

 

1239

00:37:50,701 --> 00:37:52,203

the Wikipedia

 

1240

00:37:52,203 --> 00:37:53,337

and start reading about

 

1241

00:37:53,337 --> 00:37:55,172

what Green Guard really is?

 

1242

00:37:55,172 --> 00:37:56,540

You're asking me.

 

1243

00:37:56,741 --> 00:37:58,075

The question you have.

 

1244

00:37:58,075 --> 00:38:02,947

I know I wrote it for Wikipedia, right?

 

1245

00:38:02,947 --> 00:38:04,482

It was when a PDA

 

1246

00:38:04,482 --> 00:38:06,317

and then I gave it to them.

 

1247

00:38:06,317 --> 00:38:06,751

Or

 

1248

00:38:07,718 --> 00:38:09,987

am I supposed to one up here, which is.

 

1249

00:38:09,987 --> 00:38:10,788

Oh, no, no.

 

1250

00:38:11,055 --> 00:38:12,990

I just let. This list look darker.

 

1251

00:38:12,990 --> 00:38:13,924

Yeah, okay.

 

1252

00:38:13,991 --> 00:38:15,493

But I told everybody,

 

1253

00:38:15,493 --> 00:38:17,495

you want your customer

 

1254

00:38:17,495 --> 00:38:19,330

to be looking green guard up,

 

1255

00:38:19,330 --> 00:38:20,264

you want to be hanging

 

1256

00:38:20,264 --> 00:38:21,699

your hat on this stuff

 

1257

00:38:21,699 --> 00:38:23,367

along with the great products

 

1258

00:38:23,367 --> 00:38:24,902

from Boeing and everything

 

1259

00:38:24,902 --> 00:38:27,772

but this whole Green Guard thing.

 

1260

00:38:27,772 --> 00:38:28,773

I'll tell you what,

 

1261

00:38:28,773 --> 00:38:29,840

you want to see something

 

1262

00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,843

pretty interesting just just Google

 

1263

00:38:32,843 --> 00:38:33,878

the Green Guard,

 

1264

00:38:33,878 --> 00:38:35,513

read the Wikipedia stuff

 

1265

00:38:35,513 --> 00:38:37,782

about it, read all. It's amazing.

 

1266

00:38:37,782 --> 00:38:38,916

It really is amazing

 

1267

00:38:38,916 --> 00:38:41,552

and is just going to do nothing but

 

1268

00:38:41,919 --> 00:38:44,221

if anybody coming in behind you

 

1269

00:38:44,655 --> 00:38:45,923

isn't mentioning that

 

1270

00:38:47,825 --> 00:38:48,759

they're in trouble.

 

1271

00:38:48,759 --> 00:38:50,761

You've just added value.

 

1272

00:38:50,761 --> 00:38:51,962

And what I,

 

1273

00:38:51,962 --> 00:38:54,565

I am such a proponent of this

 

1274

00:38:54,565 --> 00:38:56,434

in my entire career

 

1275

00:38:56,434 --> 00:38:58,969

is that you have I've said it before,

 

1276

00:38:58,969 --> 00:39:00,471

and I'm always going to say it.

 

1277

00:39:00,471 --> 00:39:02,673

You've got a small window of time

 

1278

00:39:02,673 --> 00:39:04,208

in front of that client

 

1279

00:39:04,208 --> 00:39:06,310

to get as much money as you can do

 

1280

00:39:06,344 --> 00:39:07,712

that job and upsell that job,

 

1281

00:39:07,712 --> 00:39:09,480

and you are adding a service to that

 

1282

00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,549

and you're adding quality to that job.

 

1283

00:39:11,549 --> 00:39:13,184

And then sometimes

 

1284

00:39:13,184 --> 00:39:15,486

our guys do all that and don't mention it

 

1285

00:39:16,053 --> 00:39:17,221

because they're humble guys

 

1286

00:39:17,221 --> 00:39:17,855

and they're just, you know,

 

1287

00:39:17,855 --> 00:39:18,789

whatever, you know what I mean?

 

1288

00:39:18,789 --> 00:39:19,256

And they just

 

1289

00:39:19,256 --> 00:39:21,225

they think in their mind, in their mind,

 

1290

00:39:21,225 --> 00:39:22,193

they know what they're going to do.

 

1291

00:39:22,193 --> 00:39:22,993

They're doing the right thing

 

1292

00:39:22,993 --> 00:39:24,061

and blah, blah, blah.

 

1293

00:39:24,061 --> 00:39:26,330

But the more you can get that into

 

1294

00:39:26,330 --> 00:39:26,897

your client's

 

1295

00:39:26,897 --> 00:39:27,665

mind and listen,

 

1296

00:39:27,665 --> 00:39:28,466

I am the guy

 

1297

00:39:28,466 --> 00:39:30,000

and you're the reason why I'm the guy.

 

1298

00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,001

Here's what we do.

 

1299

00:39:31,001 --> 00:39:32,169

Here's a value with the service.

 

1300

00:39:32,169 --> 00:39:32,603

We did this

 

1301

00:39:32,603 --> 00:39:34,505

not this is no time to be a wallflower,

 

1302

00:39:34,505 --> 00:39:35,606

because think of your wife

 

1303

00:39:35,606 --> 00:39:37,041

and kids at home.

 

1304

00:39:37,041 --> 00:39:37,808

Think of your

 

1305

00:39:37,808 --> 00:39:38,642

your plans

 

1306

00:39:38,642 --> 00:39:39,310

and your business

 

1307

00:39:39,310 --> 00:39:41,011

and whatever and your bills

 

1308

00:39:41,011 --> 00:39:41,812

and your responsibilities.

 

1309

00:39:41,812 --> 00:39:43,981

You need to get as much money as you can

 

1310

00:39:43,981 --> 00:39:45,649

is a hard job.

 

1311

00:39:45,649 --> 00:39:46,417

And

 

1312

00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:48,753

and so you need to really sell yourself.

 

1313

00:39:48,753 --> 00:39:50,821

It is not comfortable for some people.

 

1314

00:39:50,821 --> 00:39:52,623

But but you know what?

 

1315

00:39:52,623 --> 00:39:54,258

Nothing good ever happened by

 

1316

00:39:54,258 --> 00:39:57,661

never getting out of your comfort zone.

 

1317

00:39:57,661 --> 00:39:59,163

So there you go. There you go.

 

1318

00:40:00,531 --> 00:40:01,298

Rob,

 

1319

00:40:01,932 --> 00:40:04,201

happy St Patrick's Day to you, my friend.

 

1320

00:40:04,201 --> 00:40:04,969

Same to you.

 

1321

00:40:04,969 --> 00:40:07,204

You got any plans or anything tonight?

 

1322

00:40:07,204 --> 00:40:09,874

Neither one of us are big drinkers.

 

1323

00:40:09,874 --> 00:40:10,975

Nah, I probably won't.

 

1324

00:40:10,975 --> 00:40:12,243

That don't do.

 

1325

00:40:12,243 --> 00:40:13,844

No, but I'm going fishing this weekend.

 

1326

00:40:13,844 --> 00:40:15,513

That's how I'll say celebrate it.

 

1327

00:40:15,513 --> 00:40:16,947

So corned beef,

 

1328

00:40:16,947 --> 00:40:17,948

you do the whole corned beef

 

1329

00:40:17,948 --> 00:40:18,916

and cabbage deal.

 

1330

00:40:18,916 --> 00:40:21,152

Or at times. At times we do.

 

1331

00:40:21,452 --> 00:40:22,319

You know,

 

1332

00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:24,855

I'll send you a picture of my

 

1333

00:40:24,855 --> 00:40:26,190

I put on Facebook.

 

1334

00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:28,993

I'll send you a picture of my wedding.

 

1335

00:40:28,993 --> 00:40:31,262

We had three Irish dancers.

 

1336

00:40:31,262 --> 00:40:32,263

We had we got married.

 

1337

00:40:32,263 --> 00:40:34,865

We had a redhead, a blond and a brunet,

 

1338

00:40:34,865 --> 00:40:37,701

three beautiful girls and a bagpiper.

 

1339

00:40:37,701 --> 00:40:40,304

And my my grandmother from Ireland saying

 

1340

00:40:40,738 --> 00:40:42,807

nothing but Irish folk songs.

 

1341

00:40:43,307 --> 00:40:44,041

And we

 

1342

00:40:44,041 --> 00:40:45,443

she was thinking

 

1343

00:40:45,443 --> 00:40:46,844

it must have been in her

 

1344

00:40:46,844 --> 00:40:48,412

late seventies at the time,

 

1345

00:40:48,412 --> 00:40:49,680

and we could not

 

1346

00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:54,618

get the microphone away from her.

 

1347

00:40:54,618 --> 00:40:55,953

So it brought back memories.

 

1348

00:40:56,921 --> 00:40:57,488

Okay.

 

1349

00:40:57,721 --> 00:40:58,255

Of love.

 

1350

00:40:58,255 --> 00:41:00,691

You know what you to love a bagpiper

 

1351

00:41:00,691 --> 00:41:01,859

at a wedding.

 

1352

00:41:01,859 --> 00:41:02,593

Or any.

 

1353

00:41:02,593 --> 00:41:04,762

Work that is just.

 

1354

00:41:04,929 --> 00:41:05,729

Yeah,

 

1355

00:41:06,163 --> 00:41:07,698

some friends of ours got married,

 

1356

00:41:07,698 --> 00:41:10,334

and as everybody was entering the church,

 

1357

00:41:10,734 --> 00:41:11,735

they had a bagpiper

 

1358

00:41:11,735 --> 00:41:12,870

at the steps of the church

 

1359

00:41:12,870 --> 00:41:14,872

just playing music as people.

 

1360

00:41:14,905 --> 00:41:16,707

It was that was pretty cool.

 

1361

00:41:16,707 --> 00:41:18,209

If you're a bagpiper,

 

1362

00:41:18,209 --> 00:41:19,777

how can you not have nothing but

 

1363

00:41:19,777 --> 00:41:21,278

lots of friends?

 

1364

00:41:21,378 --> 00:41:22,179

You know what I mean?

 

1365

00:41:22,179 --> 00:41:23,080

If I was a kid,

 

1366

00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,548

I'd sit him down saying,

 

1367

00:41:24,548 --> 00:41:27,485

Speak Spanish now don't worry about that.

 

1368

00:41:27,518 --> 00:41:28,919

Go to college now.

 

1369

00:41:28,919 --> 00:41:30,955

Maybe, I don't know.

 

1370

00:41:30,955 --> 00:41:32,590

You need to be a bagpiper, kid.

 

1371

00:41:32,590 --> 00:41:34,124

You have all kinds of friends.

 

1372

00:41:34,124 --> 00:41:35,860

Top of my resume.

 

1373

00:41:35,860 --> 00:41:37,895

Yeah, top of the resume. Yeah.

 

1374

00:41:37,895 --> 00:41:39,997

So what if he's a bagpiper?

 

1375

00:41:39,997 --> 00:41:41,232

You know what? You it

 

1376

00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:43,467

18 years later, you get

 

1377

00:41:43,467 --> 00:41:44,902

in a fight with your wife.

 

1378

00:41:44,902 --> 00:41:50,541

Dad, Danny, just bring out the bagpipes.

 

1379

00:41:50,541 --> 00:41:52,009

You. Are you with the neighbor next door?

 

1380

00:41:52,009 --> 00:41:53,811

Bring out the bagpipes. You get lonely.

 

1381

00:41:53,811 --> 00:41:57,147

Go on the corner and play the bagpipes.

 

1382

00:41:57,781 --> 00:41:59,216

This has been another episode
