| 0:00.0 | An angry, entitled old jerk decides that he's gonna hassle me for taking too long in removing |
| 0:05.2 | a hive of angry bees from his home. |
| 0:07.7 | But despite the fact that I told him that he needs to leave the area for his safety, this |
| 0:11.6 | guy was only concerned about how much I was charging him for my job, refusing to take my safety |
| 0:16.5 | precaution seriously. |
| 0:18.1 | Here's what happened. |

| 1:00.4 | telling them to keep their kids and dogs inside. And this is all normal stuff and it reduces my |

| 1:10.8 | cut open to expose the bees. |
| 1:12.7 | Now, they are not having it and putting up a full nasty response. |
| 1:16.6 | Now, I have measures that I use to capture them from the air, so I pull enough from the air and I move back to get my tools to cut the hive open. |
