interesting, funny Full of stories and a lot of bad language, which we had to cut out, but we did keep some of it in. So just a warning if you're listening with younger listeners. This episode originally ran in April of last year, but it is well worth hearing again if you've already heard it. If not, enjoy. She came to me and she knew I had to fire a lot of people because you could just see that everybody knew something was gonna shake out. And she said, Why don't you publicly fire me if you fire me? She said no one else could be angry with you when you fire them.

And she was right. So at that Monday morning meeting we always had at nine thirty, I said So I'm surprised how bad things are, we're gonna have to make a lot of changes. Uh, and it's gonna be very hard for me to do, but the hardest change of role is me firing my mother.
