I don't even care what the product is. And I say this with love in my heart, regardless of people are selling widgets, it's never about the thing. It's not even about the environment. It's about the people. It's about the humans. It's always been about human behavior. The goal is don't focus so much on the thing.

Even if you're first to the market, even if you're crushing it compared to everybody else, the goal is you got to get spectacular people. You know, if you can find some rock stars out there, they will help you perpetuate the brand for all time.

Well, I appreciate it. And I will say that I'm mediocre at a lot of stuff. But one thing I have a strength is I can hold an audience. So at the very least in person, you know, our good friend Warren. Yeah, I'm super happy that he said that. Let's hope it translates to a podcast, right?

Yeah, mine was sort of the same thing at an entry level. Actually, my very first job, although I will still say it's in the service industry, was at a local theme park. So I live in central Florida. I'm in Orlando. We have a lesser known theme park called Gatorland Zoo, which is an actual working gator farm. But, you know, for 14 bucks, you can go in there and there's a whole bunch of fun stuff.

I actually sold fish there. I drove a little miniature train out there. I worked in the alligator boa constrictor area where we would put like a snake around somebody's neck and you can hold on to a baby alligator.

It sounds like it, right? I'm sure we probably crossed paths at some point. I doubt that actually. Mine was probably a little bit before his time, but I loved it. I mean, just having that service mentality, that work ethic really got me into working at a little Italian restaurant here in the States called the Olive Garden. And Olive Garden was a great run for me. I did that for a couple of years.

And although I went to school to be a musician and I was a middle school teacher for six years, my real love was in the hospitality industry. And I started working at a local hard rock cafe. And like you, I worked at a frontline position. I was just a host and loved it. But I got to touch basically 7,000 people a day doing something crazy like $35,000 hours, which is unheard of. hospitality.
