So we got into some other stuff and I just said to myself, all right, so this dude's really interesting. I want to find out more about this guy.

And then I just got to ask my gut instinct, are they ambitious? Are they competitive? And the more you just ask yourself that gut, then the more accurate it's going to be.

And my answer to them when we have a conversation is, what promise did I break? Because I promised you we were going to work hard. And in point of fact, if you come to work for me, I really believe the sky's the limit. If I got to create an entire division of my company that you could head, You know, what would make you happy?

And there's anybody that's going to say that, yeah, you know, sounds great. Yeah, I'd love to do that. And I'll say pressure makes diamonds, but you got to want to be a diamond. Yeah. And then when they really get into it, they go like, ah, this is harder than I thought it was going to be. I'm like, okay, we're just a bad fit. That's all.

Where you want to be is not that would make you happy someplace other than here. So I'm trying to guess at it to answer your question. I'm guessing at it and I'm saying things to people up front in case I missed where I can say, what promise did I break? I promise you we're going to work hard.

Right. Yeah. Great. Yeah. Yeah. That makes a lot of sense. I hadn't thought of it in those times where you see what their home life is like. When they come to work, are they trying to overcome what they went through over the last 8 to 10 hours? Or were they launched over the weekend?
