Q&A stupid shit edition.

Mark got shit down the account. It's coming out. All right so let's get into this man we got three questions for you first one. Andy.

How do you fire people okay and it hasn't changed from you know the 23 years ago to what it is now how do you go about firing people well look man that's probably one of the hardest things about being in business.

Nobody likes fire. Yeah it's not a fun thing. Yeah I cried the first time I had a fire no shit yeah I fucking felt horrible. Yeah like because he was a good dude like a really good dude you just couldn't do the job.

And then you know he went out and found a way and he became super successful in his own in his own little world you know and that made me feel better but like bro a fire on people sucks yeah it's not fun like people who think that's what that's fun that's not fun.

You know first off I try to give people multiple chances you know I look at their mistakes and sometimes their inability to perform as an opportunity to get better and it really takes a lot for me to fire people usually for me to fire people they have to do something unethical otherwise I really try hard to find them a role inside of our company because we have all different kinds of roles.

That fit and I think that is business owners and CEOs and managers people who have to hire and fire I think the best way to look at your company is to figure out.

And people don't do this just because the guy is not good at sales doesn't mean he won't be great at servicing a customer or he won't be great at helping logistically with things different people at different skill sets and your job as a CEO is not to crank out people who are.

A cookie cutter person your job is actually to cultivate someone's natural skills and help them figure out a place where they can perform alright for the betterment of the organization so you know you have to have there's some nuance there's what I'm saying right and and so you know you have to be patient you have to realize that when people make mistakes there's two ways to look at it one you could look at it say this person cost me $12,000.

But the real CEOs are going to look at it and say okay that person cost me $12,000 but okay will they do that will they do that again and if the answer is no then you have to eat that and invest that into a cost of education right so the best way to do that is take the mistake show everybody the mistake and so everybody learns not to do that right right and that's how you make it work financially but.

Mainly you know when you have to actually go fire someone after you try to do all those things in good faith unless you say it just now working right or they did something an ethical like they got caught stealing right or they caught got caught you know doing something that was totally against company culture right right and that happens to man and and you know the way to fire someone in my opinion under scenarios where they didn't do something an ethical but.

Because that's that's really easy to fire people like you fucking come how you should show them the proof and you say what the fuck right and and then they say blah blah blah blah blah and you say well you can't work here anymore and they fucking leave you know and that's how it goes.

In a nutshell yeah but let's just say they're good person right because that's where the really hard firings come in.

Look dude usually those people know they're going to get fired that's what I found they know that they're not performing they know that and usually bro what you find out is that they're not happy.

They're not happy for whatever reason and so usually the conversation goes something like this like hey bro like you know we've worked through all these things we've had these talks many times what what do you think and so I like to toss it to them and get what they think right and they'll say well this and this and this and I'll say well don't you think like it might be a good idea for you to find a place where you're going to be happy and be because it seems like you're not and usually what you find out is they don't want to be like you know what you're doing.

I don't want to fucking be there anyway so once you make it okay for them to leave and it's kind of almost like a mutual thing and that usually happens you know and and they go their own way and you support them and and and and whatever they do you know as long that's how I operate you know like I have a lot of people that have not worked out here that I'm still really good friends with and it just so happen to be that they wanted to do something else and that's okay.

And that's why their performance was suffering here some people are incompetent some people just can't do the fucking job and so you know you have to like work with those people but some people just aren't going to get it but having a mutual conversation about the reality of the scenario shouldn't be something that someone who is in charge of a business should be afraid of because here's the thing and this is what got me okay with firing people.
