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.
So every time he went out of town, I take the phones and man, we made a lot of money when I took the phones, but I also ran all the calls because this is when I quit the bus boy job.
All I kept was a bartending job.
2010, I gave him an ultimatum.
I said, dude, you're my best friend.
You're my roommate and my business partner.
You take the business and the debt, I'll start my own.
