00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: Where's deb I was all excited.

15
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 2: Well, she assumes that you you were shrugging to leave here.

16
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: She assumes correctly.

17
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 2: And then she's yeah, she thinks that you would chase

18
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: her down.

19
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 3: With a microphone.

20
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: I would. I know. I wouldn't chase her down. I

21
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 1: would invite her to come in studio. I was hoping

22
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: to see her today.

Speaker 1: guys got here, and I want to thank you for

56
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: bringing your son Logan in. You told me a little

57
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: bit of a story on how you knew that maybe

58
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: getting into the trades for Logan was something that was

59
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: in his future. And it's a really good story. I'm

60
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: going to ask you to repeat that.

61
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one of those things when you know when

62
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 3: you when you've got kids, anybody that's a parent out there,

63
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 3: you love your kids. They come home from school and

64
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 3: you ask them, hey, what'd you learn today? And the

65
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 3: answer is nothing, and you wonder, well, when do you

66
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 3: know when you're done? Like, how do you know when

67
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 3: you achieved nothing? And Logan got into the do enrollment

68
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 3: program at w CTC. So it was senior high school,

69
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 3: was taking college class in high school, so at Arahad yep,

70
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: and then so he'd go out to w CTC and

71
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 3: they'd do four hours of classes in the morning and

72
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 3: then catch a class, said Arrowhead at the end in

73
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: the afternoon. But we had a house that was new

74
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: to us, and we were getting into the first fall

75
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 3: and turned on the furnace, and the furnace wouldn't stay lit,

76
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: and so I asked, you know, hey, Logan, you want

77
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 3: to take a look at it with me? And he's like, yeah,

78
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 3: hold on a second. He goes, he gets his notepad

79
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 3: and he comes back and he says, hey, what's wrong

80
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 3: with it? So I described the issues going on and

81
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 3: he flips it and he says, yeah, well, in HVAC class

82
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 3: last week, they booby trapped some some furnaces. It sounds

83
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,959
Speaker 3: like it's the flame sensor. So we go downstairs with

84
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,920
Speaker 3: the you know basement and and you know, open it up.

85
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 3: And now I was a builder, so you know, this

86
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 3: isn't my wheelhouse. And he he says, well, you know,

87
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 3: we got to open up. We got to look inside.

88
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: So he pops the you know, the cover and he says, well,

89
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: that's a combustion chamber. We got to go in there.

90
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: I said, okay, so what do you need? Nut driver? Cool?

91
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: So I go at the garage and I come back

92
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 3: and hold some tools out, like what do you what

93
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: is it this thing? And so he picks the stuff

94
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: he needs and he opens it up and he says

95
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: that's the flame sensor, takes it out. It says it's filthy.

96
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 3: We got to clean it. So he gets some memory paper.

97
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: So I go out and get something. Come back. He

98
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 3: cleans it all up, buttons it all up, puts it

99
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: back together. We strike it, we lighted it, runs it.

100
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: Guess great. I looked at him like, hey save you know,

101
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 3: thanks for saving me too, hundred bucks on a truck charge.

102
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: But the coolest part about all of that it was

103
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: the first time I ever got to hold the flashlight

104
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 3: for my kid. So it was really super cool.

105
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: Man. And and the rest is history because he's moved.

106
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: If we can move the microphone over Logan, it's nice

107
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: to meet you. Five years you've been with Piper Power.

108
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Do you remember the story of your dad is just

109
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: talking about.

110
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 4: I do remember that story. I remember it, remember it

111
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 4: very well. I think that was the first time I

112
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 4: used my knowledge to help out.

113
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: There you go. You know, it had a big effect

114
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: on your dad and the relationship you and your dad

115
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: had very similar to really relationship I had with my son,

116
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: other than the tools and the fiction.

117
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 2: And stuff is the same. If you were telling the

118
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 2: same story that the end result would have been on

119
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 2: the news.

120
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: It would have been on the news, or I would

121
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: have blown up Zach or Bingo would have been over

122
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: looking at it. And then if it was the furnace,

123
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: my boys at Donovan Jordans and he didn't cool it

124
00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: with Scott.

125
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 2: You know what you're doing, I'm gonna saying we don't

126
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 2: recommend it. You try to fix your own furnace. No,

127
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 2: just go Donovan Jurgenson. You shouldn't trust me, don't blow

128
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: yourself up. But if you know what you're doing, that

129
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: was very impressive that you know, you just buy a

130
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: little education at the education he was getting. It's a

131
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 2: it's a good thing too because we got the mbatial

Speaker 4: in ceiling, plus lights here and there that were in

172
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 4: the basement. And then once I got into that program,

173
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 4: you know, we had a wide variety of classes. Even

174

175
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,360

00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 4: couple of months doing that, I think I was pretty

177
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 4: set on it.

178
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,520

292
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: talking a little smack, and I thought, hey, be careful,

293
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: and so I went online and looked up what the

294

00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: his paddle and he goes, I'm going home. This is ridiculous.

00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 3: but there are people there looking to kind of you know,

378
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 3: what's your first step in getting a new house. What's

00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 3: you know, want to do an edition, want to do

380
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 3: some projects? Yeah, and so kind of grouping them together

381
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 3: so that you can kind of just work your way

382
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 3: around that. That Center Corps was a it was a

383
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 3: really neat idea. So it turned out well. And yes,

384
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: the water features are amazing.

385
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: Hey did did she sell it out? By the way,

386
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: did Pamp? Because last week she was like, this is

387
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: going to drive me not to have always sold it out.

388
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: But we expanded and I have to we have fifteen

389
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: booths left. But I'm telling you, I'm gonna do my

390
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: best to sell this thing out. Did she come close?

391
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 3: So? I think she came within like two I mean

392
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 3: it was like it was like down to the wire

393
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: and and full disclosure. I told her that I wanted

394
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: a couple of spaces that we could do, you know,

395
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 3: a membership booth and if we wanted some space. So

396
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 3: even though her goal was to get every square foot,

397
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: you know, getting getting that as close as she did

398
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: is still way beyond expectation.

399
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: It is the most competitive I've ever seen her look.

400
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: And and look I've I've had a chance and a

401
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: blessing to spend some time with her, you know, when

402
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: I was I'm seeing your shows and stuff like that,

403
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: I've never seen that competitive look to her. And when

404
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: she said, look, I'm not kidding, I'm selling this thing

405
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 1: out if it's the last thing I do. And I

406
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 1: loved it because I believed her, and and she came

407
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 1: really close.

408
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,159

498
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 2: There's a seminar yesterday. That's what made me think about

499
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: Logan coming on here is a summinary. Yesterday is when

500
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,359

00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: you know, they want to be a trade, right, they

505
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 2: want to be like Logan, people that you know they

Speaker 2: talk Aboutkay, if you graduate from Madison sixty five thousand

507
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,679

00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 2: surpassing the person networks an iron worker field. It turns

Speaker 3: It was? Yeah, it was. It was a good Friday.

542
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: Usually Fridays are a little bit light, and its Saturday.

543
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: It picks up then and Sunday picks up. But it's

544
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: for me, it's very encouraging if yesterday was a really

545
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 1: well attended show.

546
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, and and certainly, I mean we tell obviously we

547
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 3: want people to come down and talk to the members

548
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 3: and the people there. I mean, we've got one hundred

549
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 3: and sixty on booths, so it's I mean, there's a

550
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 3: lot of people to talk to. If you're thinking about

551
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 3: you know, a potential project or something like that, you know,

552
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,919
Speaker 3: and you can you can get information off the internet.

553
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 3: You can you can certainly go you know, do a

554
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 3: little surfing at eleven o'clock at night while you're you know,

555
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 3: watching late night TV. But if you really want to

556
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 3: get good information, coming down and talking to the experts,

557
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 3: to the people that are in it right now. You know,

558
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 3: people are worried about pricing and what a tariffs mean,

559
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 3: and you know, are there still delays in getting products. Well,

560
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: the people standing in that room are the ones that

561
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,239
Speaker 3: can give you the actual answers for what's going on

562
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 3: in Wisconsin right now. So it is it's a really

563
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 3: good time to come on down. And even though yeah,

564
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: there's a little bit of snowfalling, and you know, we

565
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 3: want people to drive safe, but it'll be about seventy

566
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 3: degrees inside of the expo building. It'll be beautiful and you don't.

567
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 2: Have to shovel and they have like a bullark. If

568
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 2: you're build in a house, there's a boulevard where you

569
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: can talk to twelve separate home builders, right. And the

570
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 2: secret is is people like this whole you know, go

571
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: on your phone, google something, look at reviews and move on.

572
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 2: You need to develop a relationship because you get to

573
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 2: know these people real well because they know they're billing

574
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: stuff or Uni medal ors. You want to build a

575
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 2: relationship with these customers and it's it's nice if we

576
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 2: can physically talk to someone and build a relationship. Then

577
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 2: you say, you know what this I like this company.

578
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 2: They're a good fit.

579
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: I got to feel and build ther boulevard is going

580
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: to be more than twelve.

581
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 3: Next year, Well, we're hoping so, so we'll see how

582
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 3: it goes it. We're pretty dedicated to keep this this

583
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: kind of style of show floor for the next couple

584
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: of years and every year. You know Pam, although selling

585
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 3: it out is important, she also wants to make it

586
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 3: better and better. So it's correct, certainly it to be

587
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 3: good this year, but better next.

588
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: I think that that that idea of having twelve on

589
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: the boulevard for people to be able to walk and

590
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: get them all in one area, to be able to

591
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: say and not And there are others that wanted to

592
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: be involved, but we started small with twelve to be

593
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 1: able to just walk down that boulevard and go, Okay,

594
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: I want to talk to him, I want to talk

595
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: to her, and and just like like Bingo said, to

596
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: be able to shake hands and get a feel for

597
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 1: somebody you're going to work with because you're going to

598
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: date them for if you're if you're going to build

599
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: a home, it's going to be a year date right.

600
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 3: For sure, for sure. And there are definitely other members,

601
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 3: other builders and remodelers that are in the show. So

602
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 3: there's just we only have so many square feet that

603
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 3: we could could do this this year. But you know,

604
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 3: there's certainly a lot of good members.

605
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 2: Don't say I'm gonna have you know, I'm gonna run

606
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 2: down there at five o'clock tonight and get this whole

607
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 2: thing done. No to talk to twelve builders just on

608
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 2: the boulevard and besides go around the rest of her show,

609
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 2: you plan some time while.

610
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: Yeah told me and I've said this story with you.

611
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: And here when I worked another show down to the

612
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 1: State Fair and I was seeing it. I was in

613
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: that little office and doing the pay announcements the first year.

614
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: I walked out and a woman was walking and she

615
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: was like walking behind me, but she was going quickly

616
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 1: and she was talking to herself, and I go, all right.

617
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 1: She goes, Oh, my husband's going to be so mad

618
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 1: at me, and that's what's going on. She goes, I

619
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: came like three hours ago, and we just need windows.

620
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: That was my need. I needed windows, So I talked

621
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: to two window companies and she had a notebook with

622
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: all these notes and she goes, here, am I wants?

623
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: And I'm supposed to be at home making my husband dinner.

624
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: He keeps calling saying where are you. He's going to

625
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: be so mad at me. But once I got here,

626
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 1: I didn't want to leave. And I think, very similar

627
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: to what the show is this week in that State Fair.

628
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: Go for your needs, but understand you're going to stay

629
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: a couple hours for your wants and what Bingo just

630
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: talked about, You're not going to do this in.

631
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 3: A half hour. Yeah, And you know, even when you

632
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 3: think about some of the biggest projects, whether it's it's

633
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 3: doing you a remodel inside of a kitchen or trying

634
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 3: to you know, do something in your basement. None of

635
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 3: those projects are just going to happen on the flip

636
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 3: of a switch like you do. You've got to put

637
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 3: a litle thought. You want to get some design done.

638
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 3: You got to make sure your finances are in order.

639
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 3: You want to find that builder that's going to do

640
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 3: the work that you work well with. I mean all

641
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 3: of these things that that you want to make sure

642
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,160
Speaker 3: you get your ducks in a row, spending a little

643
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 3: time up front. It might take a year or two

644
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 3: before you actually decide to do the project. But even

645
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 3: if you're just thinking it's something that's coming, it'd be

646
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 3: you know, it's a really good time to come down

647
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 3: and start having those conversations to get yourself set up

648
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 3: for a year or two or three when you're ready

649
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 3: to actually do it. Yeah.

650
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 2: Here's here's like when you talk about there's all parts

651
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 2: of it, right. There's there's banks there just find people

652
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 2: that talk about and said, I wonder what a financie

653
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 2: would be. There's people that own it that that's all

654
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 2: they do for a living is finance these projects like this.

655
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: Well, and if you go again, if you go on

656
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: the on the website NBA builds dot org, you can

657
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,720

682
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: the NBA, the people say like, why do you want

683
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 2: to join the NBA and stuff are always competitors. This

684
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 2: is not like you see. These are twelve competitors. But

685
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 2: they're not just competitors. They're also a support group. They

686
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: work with each other, help each other with the education

687
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 2: and the politics, the stuff that we you know they do,

688
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: the advocacy stuff. Is not just competitors. These are also

689
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 2: used to park group to help you see, all these

690
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,719
Speaker 2: contractors are all talking to each other, right, they're not enemies.

691
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 2: They work together to make this They keep this whole

692
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: industry back on track.

693
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: And when we had talked to earlier in the first segment,

694
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: number of companies looking to hire and and when you

695
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: the reason we asked Logan to come in today was

696
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: to talk about that journey that he's been on. He's

697
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: been a piper Power for five years, but that's not

698
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 1: when it started. It started when he was at Arrowhead

699
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: and he started taking dual classes. When you think about

700
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: when you started those classes as senior in high school

701
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: to where you are now, what you thought going into

702
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: it is it? Is it kind of what you thought?

703
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: Has it been? The journey been different for you and

704
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: more exciting than you thought it'd be.

705
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 4: So it it? It is very much what I thought,

706
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 4: but also very different. I think when I originally started,

707
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 4: I thought that I needed all this information and all

708
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 4: this knowledge and background in the trades, and that's why

709
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 4: I kind of got into that dual enrollment, which was awesome.

710
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 4: It was great to kind of have that that head start.

711
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 4: But I remember sitting down from my interview with mister

712
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 4: Spaldy and another gentleman, and I remember telling, you know,

713
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 4: like I've done all this, you know, I installed some

714
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 4: stuff at the house, and they're like, you know, we

715
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 4: usually don't get people that have a background. So a

716
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 4: lot of people, I don't think know that a lot

717
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 4: of these trades you don't even need to have have

718
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 4: a background. It is on on site trade.

719
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 2: We're one of those companies. We preferred that you don't

720
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 2: because we want to train you the way we do things.

721
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 2: We prefer that you don't have any bad habits or

722
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 2: backgrounds and stuff and other things so that it's not

723
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 2: just you know, piper power. They all want to train

724
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 2: you from the bottom. Even our friends at Donald Jorgenson

725
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 2: and Current they want to train you to their way.

726
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 2: So I mean, you don't need to really have any

727
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 2: knowledge about this.

728
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: It will train you. You know what, show up on time,

729
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: be ready to work if if if they start to

730
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: eight o'clock, get there a quarter to eight, right, and

731
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: be ready to go when when I'm a big fan

732
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: of w CTC, I think they do a great job.

733
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: Would you agree with that?

734
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, they did a wonderful job with that entire program.

735
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: Did did you go there after graduation from high school?

736
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: Or did you start right away with hyper Power?

737
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 4: I started, I think about a month after I graduated

738
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 4: high school.

739
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 3: Wow.

740
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: Man, And again, Toby got to be it's exactly the

741
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: journey that that when we tell these kids at that age,

742
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: look I got I've gotten to a point where where

743
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: these kids at that age worl their eyes at me like,

744
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: oh man, you don't know what you talking about.

745
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 3: He does.

746
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: So if he's talking to a kid who's junior in

747
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: high school to go, look, this is this was my interest,

748
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: and I took my interest and made it a career.

749
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. And it was really cool is when when Logan

750
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 3: mentioned Rix Baulding. So Rick's been great and I've known

751
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 3: him for a number of years. What was kind of

752
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 3: funny is is that I had asked Rick if he

753
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 3: could just have a conversation with Logan about the trades

754
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 3: and talk a little bit about some future stuff. The

755
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 3: no job opportunity, know nothing, It was just an opportunity

756
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 3: to just have a chat, and they set it up.

757
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 3: I didn't get involved. Logan texted Rick, they talked, and

758
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: Rick called me afterwards and went, hey, I want to

759
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 3: offer your kid a job, man, And I what are

760
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 3: you talking about. You didn't say you're hiring. I said,

761
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: I just wanted you to talk to him a little bit,

762
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 3: and he goes, no. I was really impressed. He was

763
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 3: one of the nicest young men to come in and talk.

764
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 3: He said, I want him to come work for me.

765
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 3: And he said, but if I ever have to fire him,

766
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 3: we're still friends, right, And I went, hey, you know what,

767
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 3: you're going to get my kid. Whatever you get, it's

768
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 3: going to be him. So yeah, Rick, Rick's like I said,

769
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 3: you know whatever, you gotta do, you gotta do, and

770
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: they talked, worked it out, and now he.

771
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: Works for you. Gotta love that. My son, Matthew, he

925
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,240
Speaker 3: all kinds of programs going on. So definitely an organization

926
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 3: to check out.

927
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: Hey, logan when when if you had a chance to

928
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: talk to somebody who's a junior or senior in high

929
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: school and and said, look, I'm thinking maybe college, but

930
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm really interested in the trades. I work well with

931
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: my hands, and I want to be really proud of

932
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: some of the work that I'm doing. Well, the journey

933
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 1: you took, what would you tell people, Look, this is

934
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: this worked out really well for me, but I would

935
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,879
Speaker 1: change this or I would look to do it this way.

936
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: Is there anything on the journey that you took that

937
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: you would change.

938
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 4: I think there is one very big thing I would change,

939
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 4: and that is the get more involved in that apprenticeship

940
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 4: program early. I waited a really long time to kind

941
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 4: of start filling out that paperwork and I could be

942
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 4: over halfway done with it.

943
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: Well, what made you wait a little bit? You wanted

944
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: to make sure that this was the trade you wanted

945
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: to be in it.

946
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 4: I think it was a little bit of that I

947
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 4: think it was a little bit of laziness. There was

948
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 4: a little bit of a paperwork that kind of got

949
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 4: missed through my process.

950
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: So do you know I love the honesty. Thank you

951
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: for that, because you'll get a chance to talk to

952
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: kids and to be able to say, look, don't this

953
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 1: is the part that I would change with this journey,

954
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: because if I had changed that and not let this

955
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 1: kind of drop, here's where i'd be now. And I

956
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 1: love the fact that you said that, because not a

957
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 1: lot of twenty two year olds will admit, hey, look,

958
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 1: I know I shouldn't have let this drop because I

959
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: would be halfway through it at this point. The idea

960
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,840
Speaker 1: of going back to school because you're always learning, but

961
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: now to take the apprentice, now you've got to take

962
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: some tests and you've got to actually maybe get in

963
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: the library again, right, yep, yep.

964
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's a three year worth

965
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 4: of schooling.

966
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, and the idea of getting back into that

967
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: was probably the reason you missed a little of that.

968
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 4: It might have contributed a little bit.

969
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: Trust me, I didn't want to study when I was

970
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 1: in high school, didn't want to study when I was

971
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: in college, So you know, at twenty two. Maybe the

972
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,959
Speaker 1: maturity part of it is, Okay, let's get this going

973
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: a little bit. Hey, you got to be pretty impressed

974
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: with that answer. I don't know if you've ever asked

975
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: him that, but so we've talked.

976
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 3: A little bit about it, and you know, I think

977
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 3: he's definitely a very honest kid, and I appreciate that

978
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 3: he is self aware of some of the things that

979
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 3: you do. I think for as much as kids listening

980
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 3: to their parents, I can stand over them all day long, going,

981
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 3: you got to do this, and you're doing the pitpwork

982
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 3: and you just tick them off. But you teach your

983
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,279
Speaker 3: kids intelligence and they get wise through experience. And it's

984
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 3: really cool to hear him say, you know what, if

985
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 3: I could have fixed it, if I could have changed it,

986
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,760
Speaker 3: I would have done this. But I'm I'm still happy

987
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 3: where I'm at and I'm going to get it done,

988
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 3: and he's still pushing forward. So that's that's really cool. So, yeah,

989
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 3: learning from other people's experience is important.

990
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 2: It's very impressive he's own You're taking accountability for his

991
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 2: own actions. Everyone wants to like blame excuses, Well, I

992
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 2: couldn't do this because of that person or this or that,

993
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 2: or my lifestyle wasn't asked. He's accountable and that makes

994
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 2: makes you a very good employee for Rick. I'll tell

995
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,760
Speaker 2: you that, Oh well, own accountability.

996

Speaker 1: Look, he gets that paper filled out and he starts

997
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: seeing prentishing programs. There are a lot of kids I

998
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: think when if they do that when they're eighteen or nineteen,

999
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,959
Speaker 1: might not get through it right. And now at twenty two,

1000
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: Look he plays a little volleyball and he's out bowling.

Speaker 1: He had a two seventy five or something to the other.

1002
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: I asked him if there was bumper bowl. He's like, no,

1003
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:41,440
