And like I said, the real estate market was booming.
People were just like, their real estate was going up so fast.
They were just like, fix it.
I went out with a guy, he charged $150 per remote.
And I'm like, who would pay, go to Home Depot, pick him up for 10 bucks at the time.
So my other roommate got a job working for him as a technician.
And he approached me, his name's Gabe.
And he goes, we should start our own business.
And I was like, well, dude, I'll form the LLC.
I'll get the EIN number.
I'll get us going.
I know enough.
I can handle the marketing, but you're going to have to teach me how to be a technician.
He didn't know much because their training was crap.
So I went to all the manufacturers that got trained.
I had the business with Gabe for three years.
He also smoked about a pound of weed per month at the time.
So that was like...
It was like, he'd be eating and by the way, he's still my best friend, but he'd be like, listen, after I finished lunch, I'll give you a call back.
And I'm like, I watched him answer the phone.
