That's when you're going to be your new friend.
If that's somebody who's going to be a terrorist who's going to screw up your company and sue your company, don't even let them into the company.
I would say sometimes you got to learn how to say no to customers when they're trying to be toxic themselves to begin with, right?
So both toxic employees or might be possible employees, toxic customers.
Sales is about having a boundary, Tom, that we don't let toxic people into our life, both the company life
in our personal life because if we do all the rest of the company's got to pay to support that toxic customer or that toxic employee so there's a high duty when it comes to that and it's a very uh i take that duty very seriously and you know the day i met you tommy is the day i knew that uh that's somebody i would invite to my house uh invite to my house and i would come over to his house too uh and spend time with you because i know that uh
My parents would be proud to have you come to my house, Tom.

It's way more money to not be trained and go out there and try and do service.
Are you crazy?
When you don't do, you're not going to get the $36,000.
I do believe, listen, I have people in our program that do anywhere from, like I said, 32 to 36,000 as well.
Like Tom's team is one, and Catherine Howard, one of the people who push our services over there too.
