Mister Love 128 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 4: used to get people jobs from the projects with Pepsi cola. 129 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 4: So Pepsi Cola had a seventy two dollars test me 130 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: two million dollar tax abatement to they put a new 131 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 4: factory in the neighborhood. So with that they had to 132 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 4: hire one hundred people from the neighborhood. So mister Love 133 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 4: used to set up jobs for people from the neighborhood 134 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 4: with pepsi cola. 135 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 3: So growing up I always knew about staffing. 136 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 4: But later on in life, Wolverine Packing they owned the projects. Now, 137 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,119 Speaker 4: they came down there and they were looking for fifty 138 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 4: people to get hired. They couldn't find anyone. We had 139 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 4: white guys walking around the projects with suits on. They 140 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 4: thinking it's the FBI. So the people in the neighborhood 141 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: were like, the people in the neighborhood were boys here. 142 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 4: You have to get in contact with Mario Kelly, you know. 143 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 4: So they ended up getting in contact with me because 144 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 4: I'm I've been doing community community service, you know, so 145 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 4: like a community activist prior to that, you know, getting 146 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 4: coach for kids, you know, free lunches for the kids 147 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 4: and stuff. So my name was in the community as 148 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 4: a community activist. So when they came down, they needed 149 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 4: fifty people to work. I ended up getting one hundred 150 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 4: and fifty people to fill out an application. So after that, 151 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 4: he was just like, you need to start a staffing company. 152 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 4: And I said, well, you know, you're gonna have to 153 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 4: be rich to start a staffing company.

It's a little bit 170 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 4: different than someone's just just attempt to hire, you know. 171 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 4: So it's just more so learning about the market up 172 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 4: in the skin and recruiting. 173 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 8: So you got the story is the twenty seven dollars, 174 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 8: But I want to get to the point where you're 175 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 8: at twenty seven because I know you shared to me. 176 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 8: But the story about the rubbus, I see you still 177 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 8: got the rubber bands over. 178 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: I took it. Well, there's a story behind that. That's 179 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: why I said it. 180 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 8: So can you tell us, I mean, how we got 181 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 8: down to the twenty seven and just that determination to 182 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 8: get you to say I'm gonna start the staffing company. 183 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 3: I was. 184 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 4: I was actually got divorced, was homeless. My ex wife 185 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 4: at the time had got a lawsuit for like two 186 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty thousand and I came home to a 187 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 4: dear giant letter with fifteen hundred dollars. So at that point, 188 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 4: I literally had to figure out what can I do? 189 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 4: So I knew that back in the day the ww JD, 190 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 4: what would Jesus do rubber bands? I said, let me 191 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 4: figure something out like that. But these are called reminder bands, 192 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 4: so it's remind you to believe in what you want 193 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 4: to do, believe in your dreams, you know. So I 194 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 4: was going around downtown. I ended up ordering these for 195 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 4: three cents off of made in China. So I'm just 196 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 4: going around downtown just asking people, do you believe in yourself? 197 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 4: And if you say yes, okay, give us a donation. 198 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 3: You know. 199 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 4: It went around downtown for about six months doing that. 200 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 4: One time the city council stepped in. I gave the 201 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 4: city council some rubber bands. They put it on their 202 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 4: Facebook page and it just blew up from there. So 203 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 4: now when I'm coming downtown, people are literally looking for me. 204 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 4: They called me to believe man. So now they're giving 205 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 4: me five, ten, fifteen dollars for a rubber band. 206 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 3: So now I'm using it like a hustle. I'm hustling. 207 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: I'm copping three cent get a thousand rubber bands, go 208 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 4: back and sell them, get another thousand rubber bands, back 209 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 4: and forth. 210 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 3: You know, this is my job. 211 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 8: So that leads you to how much money did you 212 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 8: get up to, right, cause that's important. 213 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 4: From the rubber bands, I ended up getting up to 214 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 4: seventeen thousand, and I'm still in the van, putting my 215 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 4: savings in the little speed tire in the back of 216 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 4: the van. And I ended up getting up to seventeen 217 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 4: thousand and ended up riding. So now I'm learning about manifestation, 218 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 4: and I'm parking in front of people houses in like 219 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 4: the suburbs of Detroit because this is where I live 220 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 4: at That's how I feel like. 221 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 3: This is where I live. 222 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 4: So every night i'm coming, I'm parking somewhere, and one 223 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 4: night I ended up seeing a guy selling his house 224 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 4: in the area. So now my whole mindset is to 225 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: get up to the seventeen thoughts where I got to 226 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 4: seventeen thousand. So I approached him with that to buy 227 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 4: the house. You bought the house, Yeah, I bought the house. 228 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 4: Oh we left that part the story and I didn't 229 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 4: even go That's just that was the foundation of of 230 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 4: of me starting all of that because I had to 231 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 4: have a place to stay. I was just really just 232 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,599 Speaker 4: wanted to get the house so I can take a 233 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 4: shower and sleep and just get downtown. 234 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 7: Was the payment. 235 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 4: No, you know, Detroit has a house market. The house 236 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 4: was ran down. Oh you know, so I purchased the 237 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 4: house for seventeen thousand dolls sixty five hundred sixty five 238 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 4: hundred sixty five land Bank yep, lamb Bank Hot Troy, 239 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 4: lamb bik yep. 240 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 6: So it was a like dilapidulated house.

A bad house in a good neighborhood. 242 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 4: It was a good house in a great neighborhood. It 243 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 4: was just it was abandoned. It was a big it 244 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,719 Speaker 4: was a band. It was just it was a you know, 245 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 4: a great neighborhood, university district. So it's one of the 246 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 4: best neighborhoods in Detroite. Okay, so you took over the 247 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 4: Bandoh what happened take over there? 248 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 5: Now? 249 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: Really it was it was a band.

And just clearing 253 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 4: the room out where I can to sleep. So that 254 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: was the concept that just getting the bathroom in the 255 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 4: room together so I can get the job, you know, 256 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: go back down there with the rubber bands.

So what I ended up doing was doing 691 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 4: a market analysis through the major leagues. So I seen 692 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 4: that the Yankees were paying twenty seven dollars today cleaning company, 693 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 4: the Red Sox were paying twenty five, you know, the 694 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 4: Minnesota Twins. So I ended up doing the market analysis 695 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 4: through all the Major League Baseball teams and taking it 696 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 4: to them and just handed they buy some paper and 697 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 4: just told them all, we're gonna continue to be last 698 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 4: on in off the field. 699 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 7: They would they say, when you said. 700 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 4: That, they looked at the paper. I have a meeting 701 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 4: A fifteen you have So I mean they raised the price, yeah, 702 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 4: most definite. I get the price is right before I 703 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 4: even got to the elevator, you know. So we raised 704 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 4: the price. And then that's when we came with the 705 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 4: fifteen dollars and eighteen dollars some holidays twenty two fifty 706 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 4: supervisors twenty five fifty. So I got the price raised 707 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 4: up and then it was just more so just getting 708 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 4: the people. 709 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 7: Now, how many people you need for that? 710 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 4: On the average, it's about one hundred and forty a week, 711 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 4: and it's still neighborhood. Now, now I'm using social media 712 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 4: to reach out to the city Detroit. 713 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 8: Now, so this is interesting, right, because you start during 714 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 8: the pandemic. Yeah, baseball came back, just no fans came back. 715 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 8: Baseball came fast, no fans. 716 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 3: No fans. 717 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 8: So like you don't need one hundred and forty for that, right, 718 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 8: So like what's that look like in the beginning, because 719 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 8: like you're not dealing with fans. And then I guess 720 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 8: in the playoffs they started letting fans back. So like 721 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 8: when fans started coming back, they started letting in a 722 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 8: certain amount. 723 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 4: I think it may have been like less than ten thousand, right, right, 724 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 4: Like less than ten thousand can come back into the arena. 725 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 4: So it was more so like a trial run. I 726 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 4: would say, it wasn't like like it is now. No, 727 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 4: it was more so it was dirty, but it wasn't 728 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 4: as dirty as it is now. So it was more 729 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 4: so God just set it up like that so I 730 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 4: can train myself, train and get ready for this year 731 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,479 Speaker 4: and the next year. So it was it wasn't really dirty, 732 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 4: but it was dirty enough to learn the filthy of 733 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 4: the better. 734 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 735 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 7: So okay, so you got the baseball thing going. 736 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 6: Now you're reaching out so social media, you're just putting 737 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 6: the word out there and people should sending you their resume. 738 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 4: Well, in Detroit, you know this, this this the culture 739 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 4: we're in right now is all social media.

But I do have my own 876 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 4: accounts that I work. I have two of my own 877 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 4: accounts because it's only like thirty minutes a day, three 878 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 4: three times a week. But each account may pay anywhere 879 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 4: between six to eight thousand. So what's the retention rate 880 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 4: like for your your stefan? Retention is it's hot. I 881 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,399 Speaker 4: mean it's a revolve in dro honesty, you know, by 882 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 4: being with the stadiums. You know, we're only working if 883 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 4: the Lions have a home stand. I mean Tigers have 884 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 4: a home stand for one week, six games, and they 885 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,919 Speaker 4: are off for six weeks. They may be on the road, 886 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 4: So the Lions have one game on Sunday, then we 887 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 4: may clean Tuesday and Wednesday. So you may work with 888 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 4: just the football maybe twelve times a month, and then 889 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 4: the baseball may be something similar between seventeen to twenty 890 00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 4: days a month. So retention is it's high. That's why 891 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 4: I have so many job fairs, you know. Plus when 892 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 4: people come into these stadiums. It's kind of intimidating, you know, 893 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 4: to see a big stadium. Damn, I got to clean 894 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 4: this up. They get the thing and they got to 895 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 4: clean it by themself, you know. So retention is how 896 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sorry, revolving door. It's a revolving door. 897 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 4: So that's why I have a lot of job fairs. 898 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 8: What about products, because obviously you started with the twenty 899 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 8: seven dollars products, but as you're getting bigger jobs, more products, 900 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 8: Like what's that expense like as you as you're scaling. 901 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 4: It depends on where where we're at, like for Shinola. 902 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 4: You know, products is twelve hundred a month for a 903 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 4: motor company and maybe four hundred a month, But it 904 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 4: depends on how you dilute the products to also how 905 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 4: the employees, because you can you can stretch it for 906 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:49,879 Speaker 4: the for the stadiums, it's something crazy, you know, sending 907 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 4: tens of thousands a month just to the gloves, the bags, 908 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 4: the brooms, the mob heads, you know, all this stuff 909 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 4: has to be bought, you know, on a weekly basis. 910 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's an interesting business model because I used to 911 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 6: work in the office and you know, I see the 912 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 6: cleaning they used to come through at night like if 913 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 6: I was if I stayed late, then they would come 914 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 6: like like seven o'clock summer o'clock, and it was mostly 915 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 6: all women or like mostly Spanish women that was doing 916 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 6: and cleaning.

I'll be honest with you. This is 1483 01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:50,000 Speaker 3: really this is really a pisiove. Man. 1484 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,640 Speaker 6: It's one of these things that it just makes all 1485 01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 6: the sense in the world, and you think, like why 1486 01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 6: happening more people thought about stuff like this. 1487 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 4: Because this is a game for us. This is more 1488 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 4: of a white white game. White man. You know, it's 1489 01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:07,880 Speaker 4: no really staffing companies. They're owned by white people, you know, Caucasian. 1490 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, So so you know this isn't something that 1491 01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 4: we were taught about, you know, staff and you know, 1492 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 4: I can have a hundred people work eight hours of 1493 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 4: piece and have a mark up on the back end. 1494 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:23,800 Speaker 4: You know, and be able to scale and maneuver and 1495 01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 4: move around and do different things. We weren't talking about 1496 01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:29,519 Speaker 4: staff We talked about basketball, football, you know, different things 1497 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,760 Speaker 4: like that. But staffing is a need. Cleaning is a need. 1498 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 4: You know, everyone needs a job. In order to make 1499 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 4: this happen, you had to hire someone to you know, 1500 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,720 Speaker 4: to do that, to run the backside. So hopefully from 1501 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 4: this interview, a lot of more people see this and 1502 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:48,759 Speaker 4: get motivated about staffing in different states, you know, also 1503 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:50,040 Speaker 4: cleaning or whatever it may be. 1504 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:53,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think that it will definitely inspire people. 1505 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 6: And like I said, it's something that actually even that 1506 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 6: transportation thing is crazy because it was an unfortunate situation 1507 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,559 Speaker 6: that happened a few months ago with a bus. It 1508 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,600 Speaker 6: was like a bus of people and they had a 1509 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 6: car accident. But long story short, the bus was coming 1510 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:10,680 Speaker 6: from New York to Pennsylvania and they were saying that 1511 01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 6: it had like a lot of Obviously, we have a 1512 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 6: large Spanish population in New York, so they were taking 1513 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,800 Speaker 6: a lot of like illegal immigrants. But the moral of 1514 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:24,360 Speaker 6: the story was that obviously there was a staffing company 1515 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:27,160 Speaker 6: in play here that had a transportation that was taking 1516 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 6: like poor people that needed jobs to a facility to clean, 1517 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:35,360 Speaker 6: and that facility was like hours away like every single day. 1518 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,720 Speaker 6: So it's like now, like I remember that hearing that 1519 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,040 Speaker 6: story on the news. So now when you're saying this, 1520 01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:44,240 Speaker 6: I'm like, oh, this actually I can understand it now, 1521 01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:45,400 Speaker 6: Like you know what I'm saying. Like you go into 1522 01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 6: a neighborhood where people want to work and need jobs. 1523 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 7: You say, I got jobs for you. This is what 1524 01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:52,599 Speaker 7: you're gonna get paid. Da da da. 1525 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:57,040 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give you transportation to and from and yeah, 1526 01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:02,120 Speaker 6: that's the play right there. And it's like, yeah, pretty 1527 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 6: much is not much. It's not much more to it 1528 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:05,760 Speaker 6: than that. And it's one of these jobs like you said, 1529 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 6: it's like it doesn't really take too much to clean. 1530 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 6: You just have to follow instructions. You have somebody in 1531 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 6: place that can give instructions. 1532 01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:19,360 Speaker 7: And you clean. It's just like, you know. 1533 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:22,080 Speaker 8: I think it's encouraging, right, Like I feel like if 1534 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 8: you we presented that type of situation, I feel like 1535 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:26,400 Speaker 8: there might be a pride factor, Like I'm too, I 1536 01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 8: ain't clean nobody else's mess, but like what you've done 1537 01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,120 Speaker 8: is made it like yo, I'm here with you exactly 1538 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:32,200 Speaker 8: what changes the game. 1539 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:33,599 Speaker 3: That's why I think it's so brilliant. 1540 01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:36,519 Speaker 8: And it reminds me of like even like your story, 1541 01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:39,280 Speaker 8: like just an entrepreneur in Detroit.
