I mean, the reality is we're up against a big thing, right? I mean, the college system is a very lucrative industry or whatnot. But yeah, we can definitely speak up the way we do our recruiting, our training, those type of things. What are you guys doing right now or at any hour for recruiting and training people to get them up to speed?

You bet. We have people coming through our doors every single day. If you go talk to my recruiting team, they'll have... thousands of applications per month coming in the door. You have to be actively looking for the right people, bringing them in, showing them what's available, creating an opportunity. And then you got to be open minded.

I mean, you bring people in the door and I think so many contractors out there are just looking for the most experience. You need to find people for who they are and help them develop that experience. If you're hiring for character and if you're bringing people into the trades, giving them an education, and helping them start that career path.

That's why we have a shortage is because we've created it. We've only gone for the, like you said, they're bouncing from shop to shop to shop. So these experienced guys are the first one they grab, right? If we bring in young people that are ambitious, that are interested in learning how to work with their hands and have a career in the trades and then train them,

they're grateful for that training. They're going to stay with us. We're going to have loyalty. We're going to have hardworking people. And like you said, in a matter of just a few years, we've helped them develop a career path where they can make an incredible income and provide for their families.

Yeah, I mean, and it's got to be a cultural shift because, I mean, these kids, they're coming out of high school addicted to their phones, don't know how to use their hands, never have done any type of like labor or sweated in their life, right? So like that, I mean, you got to address this situation early. It's not at 18 or 19.

amen so you know it's uh it's interesting um there's there's a there's a labor shortage but then there's also like a lot of guys in the space that just have trouble scaling right like all of us have scaled drastic amounts like what what would you say like are the key aspects in growing a business from zero to 106 million in six and a half years
