this level and that level is going to report to this level.

We have a system here and we take it very seriously because it keeps our machine well oiled and running right.

And we're going to respect you, but you need to respect the hierarchy.

Well, yeah, that's why that was in this list.

It is.

And isn't it probably annoying if you are an actual family business?

Like I've worked at a family business where like half of the people there are actually a family.

Well, it can be complicated, but there's also something kind of cool about a family business.

It's like, no, motherfucker, we're a family here.

Yeah.

We're a family.

We are.

And this is a family business.
