So if somebody comes to me with something, I'm generally trying to work out, right, how do we fix this for the person?
And actually what kind of taught me is that sometimes you just need to sit and listen.
So that was like 2006 to 2008.
I was in Peter Mark.
Obviously, the recession came.
I kind of didn't know what I wanted to do with my life.
I kind of didn't feel like it was going in the direction I wanted it to go in.
Obviously, the recession came.
And it's interesting now when you speak to especially younger founders who don't quite remember the recession of 2008.
But for me, anyway, it felt like the lights went out on a Tuesday and the sun didn't come back out for like eight months.
And Australia seemed like a pretty decent option.
So I went to Australia and was very lucky to be able to find myself landing a job that I'd never kind of expected to do.
But essentially, I was doing door-to-door electricity sales.
A ton of Irish people were kind of doing it at the time over there.
That sounds rough.
of all jobs to land, that sounds rough.
Rough in Australia, I would say, because obviously it's pretty hot over there.
So you're door to door every day.
Um,
I hit the ground running with it in a way that I wasn't expecting.
