So when the minute they hit a roadblock, I'll just hire, you know, I'll hire a new marketing person, right?

Or I'll hire a new head of sales.

Thinking that, oh, this person's amazing.

No one's ever hired somebody and said, they suck really bad.

Of course not.

And so I said, OK, you know, stock up on things you have room to store, toothpaste, toilet paper, whatever, because tariffs are going to increase their price.
