It's in his hometown.
And he felt, you know, looking at the way America was going, especially under President Biden, that green energy was an important field.

It was important for his environment and for his neighbors.
And so he was really frustrated when the president tried to kill this project.
And a judge just overturned that decision.
And so he his buddies went out and celebrated the other night, but they still don't know when they're getting back to work.
I mean, Nick went through a whole bunch of very specialized training so that he could actually go out and paint in the wind turbines as they're being installed off the coast, right?
Which requires familiarity and expertise with boats, with first aid, with high angle rope rescues.
You know, this is not sitting in a factory painting something with a can.
This is incredibly technical work.
And so, you know, he spent all this money of his own money and his own time to get this training because he looked at this and said, boy, the U.S.
is really going all in on green energy.
I would really like to be a part of that.
And so he's been very frustrated to feel like the rug got pulled out from under him.
