0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Aaron Jones from Big Dog Construction. I live in Grand Manan, New Brunswick. It's |
0:09.9 | a little island on the in the middle of the Bay of Fundy. And we're going to talk about |
0:15.5 | coffee, apprenticeship, and scaling your business. Switzerland was amazing. It was. The coffee |
0:26.6 | was funny in Switzerland though, man. Like funny. Ha ha. Funny. Ha ha. Like I went to a Starbucks |
0:32.8 | because luckily there was one near our hotel. And I walked in and I ordered a cold brew. |
0:39.6 | And I was like, hey, can I get a shot of espresso in that? And he goes, whoa, he goes, you |
0:45.2 | got a busy day? And I'm like, nope, just kind of how I drink my coffee. Meanwhile, everyone |

1:43.4 | if you go to, if you went to one of those cafes underneath the train station, yeah, the |
1:49.0 | coffee was like two, three dollars. Yeah. But at Starbucks, it was, I think eight. I don't |
1:56.8 | remember. Anyways, that's, yeah. I mean, I feel like Starbucks is a luxury everywhere. |
2:03.8 | Yeah. I mean, I guess, I suppose you also can't use the, you also can't use the app. |
2:12.0 | I tried to scan it and he goes, is this US? And I was like, yeah, he goes, yeah, that |
