I had that assistant sit there and do maybe two hours of work a week, and I paid her 40 hours of work.

Right.

And I did all the work myself because I had no idea how to use an assistant.

I drove that woman nuts.

She sat there for six months waiting to get fired because I wouldn't give her tasks to do.

And the whole time I'm thinking, well, this is kind of cool.

Like, it's cool to have someone to chat with once in a while.

I had no idea.

She'd asked me what to do.

And I would just assume I had to do everything myself because how could I hand a task off to her?

It wouldn't make sense.

Like, she wouldn't do it the way I did it.

That ended at six months when I finally said, I guess I don't need you.

And she goes, I guess you don't.

My wife was furious when I told her that.

She said, what the hell is wrong with you?

You're working 80, 90 hours a week, and you're paying your assistant, and you aren't even using them.

Do you not know how?

I got another assistant.

My first task for that assistant was tell me how to use an assistant.
