Speaker 3 00:00:57 I Need to. Because I had to go to Bonanza first for that. Okay. Bonanza, then SCP here. Six Street Rocky Point. Speaker 2 00:01:34 But Alex said that it didn't fit the other one, and honestly, I just want to check it myself before I send it back. So if you want to check it, then. I want to check the length. Speaker 3 00:01:51 And the length? Yeah. Yeah. That distance? Speaker 2 00:01:55 Yeah. But we'll go string to string. Okay. And then. This one and. Yeah. Speaker 3 00:02:14 Yeah. I put my tape on that wall yesterday, right? With the string. And then I measure from the string to my tape, two and a half inches. Two and a half inches? Uh- huh. Speaker 2 00:02:32 Right, so this side two and a half inches string to my tape. Okay. And then that side two and a half inches string to my tape. Oh yeah. And then in the middle three inches max string to my tape. Oh yeah? So we met for it? Yeah, okay. So that's that's the reason I use yours yesterday so okay. Speaker 3 00:03:01 But we can trust Jesus. Speaker 1 00:04:27 Burn? Okay. Speaker 1 00:05:02 I think it's better to go here. Speaker 1 00:06:08 Fifty four feet. Five and a half. Speaker 2 00:07:04 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. Thank you. Speaker 2 00:08:24 Let's go this way. Let's put out the string. Speaker 1 00:09:36 No. Speaker 2 00:10:28 What Do we say before one four one seventy three? One seventy three and three fourths and three eighths. So. Speaker 1 00:10:43 This is fourteen. Speaker 2 00:10:51 Two inches. Two inches. Inches, they're burn? Yes. Okay, so it's fourteen feet five and three quarters. Speaker 3 00:11:11 Five and three quarters? Speaker 2 00:11:12 Yeah. So. Speaker 2 00:11:16 Fourteen Feet is. What's the PSN? One hundred sixteen, Okay. Speaker 2 00:13:17 So I Think it's just a little square. A little tiny bit when you go longer, right? Because for. Speaker 2 00:13:33 Fifty. Fifty. Speaker 1 00:13:38 Fifty. Fifty. Speaker 2 00:14:03 I think. Speaker 3 00:14:28 It's uh. Speaker 3 00:14:33 A lot of time. I think you're burning it up. Speaker 2 00:14:40 Because it's very hot. Yeah, yeah. So that's one problem, or he's by himself, right? Oh! Two uh two uh two videos for this? Are you the Rocky thing? No. Speaker 3 00:15:01 Socks? See? That's all. Speaker 3 00:15:04 I'll take that. Speaker 2 00:15:34 Okay. Speaker 2 00:16:04 Oh yeah. Speaker 3 00:16:05 Oh okay. Okay. The sample then? Yeah, Speaker 2 00:16:14 Because it's rocky point. Yeah. How did it look? Did it look good? Yeah. Did it match the liquid better? Yeah. Noise six Okay, right Dry, Dry cycle, dry. Yeah, wet. Speaker 3 00:17:21 Yeah. Speaker 3 00:17:53 Change. Yeah, one more over there. For the cover, no. So the cover is equal. Okay, it's more deep and the cover. Speaker 2 00:18:10 Is not speaking. So we'll make it the same, right? Yeah, so we're just because they they want the, The pool as wide as possible. So we'll we'll make it the same. Yeah, right? Right? Let's go here to there. Wall to wall? What's the let's see how do you want it? Speaker 1 00:18:51 Okay. Speaker 2 00:19:22 So. Fifteen and a half. Muscle men. Fifteen. One and a half. Okay? Speaker 1 00:20:00 Yeah. Speaker 1 00:20:30 I think so. Remove the line. Yeah. Mhm. Yeah. Make it the same as that one. From here? Speaker 2 00:20:58 See here? I think so because it is three eight. Right, let's at fifty feet. Okay, so. Speaker 1 00:21:25 For three eight. Speaker 1 00:21:34 1600, right? So every pull it. Speaker 2 00:22:07 So. Speaker 2 00:22:41 So, Measure here to the string length, right? So one one seventy seven, okay, one seventy seven, right there to there right over there. So whatever whatever that is there. Speaker 1 00:23:40 You hear thirteen, right? And then whatever that measurement, one seventy seven. One seventy seven. Right? Speaker 1 00:24:11 E ight. Speaker 2 00:24:13 Four eight, ten, three, four, five. It's it's good only if is is a long line, you need a long right right, so, but they should have double checked here and there. That's why. So it's square, but. Speaker 1 00:24:38 It's not once you go all the way over. Speaker 1 00:24:52 Okay. Um, Speaker 2 00:24:56 I have gasoline, but you don't need gasoline right now. I just need the pump. Go. You need anything? Do you do you need anything? Speaker 3 00:25:15 What is the pump? Uh, pressure washer, uh, vacuum, what yeah vacuum, what. Speaker 2 00:25:25 Do you want to do? I'd say, do this first, and you can do those right? Yeah, you don't trust me. You don't trust me. Speaker 2 00:26:06 You Tell me what am I doing wrong? When you measure, you burn. Right? Yeah. Line the line. Line the line. Speaker 1 00:26:17 Right. Speaker 2 00:26:47 I don't think people when you and I started, right? We were wrong. And each time we say, okay, why? Why are we wrong? Right? Okay. Okay. Right? You know, cambiar el proceso. Right? Cambiar, cambiar. Okay. So now, perfect. Right? Not elemental. Right? Perfect. So so ellos. Ellos no no preguntan, uh. You know. No sé. Es correcto? Yo yo you know he I I no me gusta ellos okay? Speaker 3 00:28:05 I Am intelligent, but it is bad. Why? Speaker 2 00:28:16 Right. Because you always ask, "Why? Why? Why?" And that's why, that's why with them or even with me, I talk a lot. Right? I talk a lot because he won't ask. So I ask for him. A wife, wife. Right? So it's my job. My job is not is not to uh be good for me. Speaker 2 00:29:15 My job is to make you better, make him better. And when everybody that's on my team is better, I'm better. Right? So and then so because they'll say, "Oh, you need me." Right? My team. You need me. No. He said he's the only person who didn't think that. He didn't think that I would fire him. That's all you need, right? I don't need anybody. But I need to learn first, so I wait. I learn. I watch. I learn. I learn. Okay, now.I think I can do it by myself. Speaker 2 00:30:15 Because, because it's Michael and his. Thank you. Renee, can you turn the fan on? Speaker 1 00:30:27 Yeah. And Michael and. Speaker 3 00:30:32 His brother always has better center.

And that's because he will make you better, you will make him better. It's a rivalry. It's good competition. But but but not clear them down with don't make me uh. Speaker 2 00:32:14 I told my wife, "When the boys. when the other one is bigger, okay?" I told the boys, "Oh, I need to work more. But." With women, see a girl is very pretty. The women I said, oh, they need to eat more. I hope she gets fat, right? Yo quiero ella es gorda, right? But uh. Speaker 2 00:33:13 You know, have a a race, right Hey. Hey. Speaker 2 00:34:13 Right.

Do it and uh just park them and tell them if they need anything that's not typical, you know, just to hit me up. Speaker 1 00:35:07 Okay. Now let's get it. How you doing? Speaker 2 00:35:39 Yeah. Yeah, Last night uh was a failure I think in multiple levels. I was thinking about this morning. Um. So, um. No, I, You know, Eric asked me if he's like, "Hey, can I shoot my airsoft gun a little bit?" You know, before I do chores. And you know and so I was like, " Y ou know normally I, wouldn't i would say no to that. But if you can make sure that we get the chores done." You know and that's fine. Um because I know the sun's gonna go down and I need. Speaker 2 00:36:24 And then I start working with Ben on his kick and whatnot. And then, you know, later I realize like. You know, and Maddie sees Eric on the gun and he's like. By the way, Maddie made me the. There, I got you. Can you do FaceTime? Speaker 2 00:36:54 I just think it's really cool. Um, but no, I you never mind. You're on theum, I'll show it to you later. Maddy made something for our hummus so it can sit in my truck properly. So. Speaker 4 00:37:14 When I was checking his folder at the party, that's what I saw. And he agreed that when he has the time, my favorite is that he wants to meet Trump. Speaker 4 00:37:24 Um. He also spelled his last name wrong. Speaker 2 00:37:35 Oh, I don't know. Yeah. I just pulled it up. Um. Handsome? That's his first thing? Funny, fast, kind child of Braden Ashley Ann. Feels joyful, sweet, happy. Who needs family, God, electronics. Gives joy, happiness, friendship. Who hopes for many. Oh money friends happiness. Who would like to see family Mr what? Speaker 2 00:38:22 Mr. Beast. Um. Trump and Trump. Oh, I'd like to oh yeah, lover of family iPad military, glad God's in there resident of Yorba Linda California. Speaker 1 00:38:37 Yes. And, Speaker 2 00:38:42 Yes. I saw the last name, but I'm not going to mess with that. I know you just like to. Speaker 2 00:38:52 Um. Nice. Anyways. Um, what time are you leaving on on uh Saturday or Sunday? Speaker 4 00:39:05 I have to be Sunday, I have to be there by. I have to be I need to be checking in by six. So. Speaker 2 00:39:15 So am I going to see you? Um, I gotta leave at like I'm gonna leave it like eight thirty. Yeah, Speaker 4 00:39:25 I gotta take Ben to his team if he's feeling good enough to go. I don't know, you know, you probably won't go to tonight's practice. Yeah, Speaker 1 00:39:39 It's all right. So. Speaker 4 00:39:46 Since I am picking him up. Speaker 4 00:39:49 Like I felt bad. I feel like I've been. I feel like, I don't want my kids to ever feel like we're, i repeating so good you are going to school, you know. But it's like, You know, so it's and it's hard because Ben just does not want to make up his mind on stuff. He wants you to do it for him, You know, Speaker 2 00:40:07 You know what's what's funny is like So. We were watching videos last nightum of him. And. Speaker 2 00:40:19 Um, and like videos, it started out with watching videos of him at um. And chalk. Um, yeah, And you would ask him very, very simple questions. And even then he was like I ain't answering. I'm not I'm not making a decision. Right. Um right so I think that's just a him thing? Right. Obviously, We we need to we need to work with him on it to be better about that, but. Speaker 4 00:40:53 Right. Right. But I don't It's always been him. Speaker 2 00:40:58 And I told I pointed that out to him as if you see how you're not making decisions here, right? This is what I you're asking questions that you know the answer to. Um and he kind of smiled like yeah, Speaker 4 00:41:10 You know Yeah So it's like, But I don't want to miss it. Like, I don't want all of a sudden, like when he's fifteen to find out that he's depressed, but he just couldn't figure himself out. You know? So or something you know like my worst fears. So it's like, I had him come around to the window, and I was like Ben. You're important dude. Like, I have work and stuff but you're first. If you're not feeling well, you just need to.I said I can't make this decision for you because.I said it's not. Speaker 4 00:41:46 Fair to me to offend my whole day based off of trying to trying to figure out what's inside your head, but I need you to tell me. And I. Yeah. Anyways, I am gonna, I don't know. I think I am just gonna let him relax on the couch all day. Speaker 2 00:42:05 That's fine. I intentionally like You know, I intentionally, let him watch TV, you know, last night, and then just kind of i i. You know, in a way, just kind of like, you know, after I I went and cleaned the kitchen. I just kind of like went up, you know, and sat next to him and. You know that's when we started like hanging out. Like we watched White Collar and then. Um so anywaysum no problem. Speaker 4 00:42:33 All right well I just thank you I just. Speaker 1 00:45:08 You know we've gone around with the pressure washing a good bit of time, but some of the stuff we missed with the pressure washing, we're gonna have to drill. Speaker 2 00:45:19 Okay. I mean if it's not coming off with the pressure washer, use the drill. Um these boards need to be asking to clean, you know, they're not clean yet, so we're gonna spin it back. Okay I got the red tip on here now so I was hitting, Getting right on the bar. Okay. Um, be really careful with the uh, the pipe start. That's what I was concerned about there. Right. Speaker 1 00:45:50 The black ring around the. How many of the pipes have those? Speaker 2 00:46:09 How many of the pipes have a black ring around them? All the ones with the red tape. Just stay away from them. Yeah, as much as possible. I mean, you know, it's going to be a different detail for those than we normally do. Um, I do think that we're going to want whatever's sticking out of the concrete like that one right there. You want to come over here and yeah, I can show you. Hey, you feeling a little better? See that first one there? Yeah, on the top. Yeah, see how the concrete's kind of. yeah, around on the block from the top. Yeah. Um. So I don't know if it'll come out right on there for a reason. Speaker 1 00:46:60 So I didn't. Uh I didn't try to do too much on the page. Speaker 1 00:47:13 Check on the pump and make sure it's working. Speaker 2 00:47:15 Is it working, Alex? I brought. I brought the other pump, the one with float. So you can get that. You doing okay on fuel? Speaker 5 00:47:30 Uh, I filled it up this morning, and it's just about empty like And. We're probably going to end up using like another like all that gas that's in there right now. Speaker 2 00:47:42 Okay, um, I filled up the other one. So we can if you want to fill that guy up or fill that and then we can swap. Um, how are you guys feeling about so when You. Speaker 5 00:48:10 You're getting it off pretty good with the tip on. Or is it just because it's wet? Speaker 2 00:48:15 It's just'cause it's wet. But it's coming off, it's coming off, but when he gets wet, it's a little harder to see. But. Speaker 6 00:48:25 I got to get you got to get it from all angles, you know? And you got the way the ribs are going, you got to kind of want to shoot the water with that. Yeah. Speaker 5 00:48:32 It's not a direct. It's not usually hit directly? Speaker 2 00:48:35 You're saying if there was more. Right. So, Uh, we're gonna have to get these guys more, But you're not going to want to hit it with the with the red tip. I'm assuming you didn't have a chance to hit these after I left yesterday. No, I did like whatever's on there, Speaker 5 00:48:51 Like you can even see like I was I put the pressure on there pressure washer on there, try to get as much off as possible. Which tip? Whatever's left, uh the yellow one. Yeah, whatever's on there is yeah okay so no. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:49:09 No, yeah, I don't want to ruin. We're trying to save them. So. Speaker 5 00:49:13 Yeah, no, like I I had went over it. Like that's the only thing I go went over it twice. Okay. Speaker 5 00:50:34 So, And I was actually corrected by Corey. I must have misunderstood him at some point in time. Um. Speaker 2 00:50:42 Rust, and I looked this up just to make sure. Rust is actually provided it's not so rusted that it's like coming apart. Rust is actually good for the bond and everything. Oh really? Yeah, on it. So we're not going to worry about rust. Speaker 5 00:50:60 So just cement? Speaker 2 00:51:02 Just, just cement, yeah. So just so you guys know. Speaker 5 00:51:13 Is that just for like the shock, or is that just working with like eighteen has rust in general? Speaker 2 00:51:18 Um, when you are applying, it's weird. I think what you don't want. You don't want the rust to come off of the rebar onto things, right? You want to be able to encapsulate it on the rebar. So t here is an issue of rust whenum. Speaker 2 00:51:43 You know, like it's stradella. Speaker 5 00:51:46 Like, some of that rust was like it had completely ate the rebar and stuff. Speaker 2 00:51:51 Right, Well, and it was it was like as you wash it off now, it's making its way onto the concrete. You know right. Speaker 5 00:52:04 So what do you mean by like caps? Did you say caps sizing? Speaker 5 00:52:11 Like you mean like just keeping it like on the rebar, right? So I'm assuming that's when the epoxy, like two fifty four stuff, like that comes in. Is that what this is for that or. Speaker 2 00:52:19 Yeah. Um. Oh, what did I say? Um. I don't know. I think the rust needs to be contained to the rebar. Speaker 5 00:52:29 Okay. Yeah, yeah. So so uh. So what what I was trying to ask was like pretty much if you guys put epoxy on all the So. Speaker 2 00:52:37 By code, the rebar is supposed to be like, Two inches behind the concrete. I think three inches is best practice. Um, and so the rust can't travel past two inches. So on some of these pools, we're opening it up and it's like oh shoot, the rust that the rebar is like only an inch back. And so it'll the rust will travel through that. Okay. Um. Speaker 2 00:53:09 Did we maybe leave that guy on too long yesterday? Speaker 5 00:53:11 I mean, well, okay, cause I was so at the end. I was trying to remember through the day to keep it running, like to run it every like, you know, a few minutes. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:53:18 Um at the end of the day, like there was a saying that I left that on for too long, but possibly. I'm Not looking for blame, I'm looking for yeah. But so like how do we how do we keep this from happening? Like what went wrong? So, Speaker 5 00:53:31 When I took it off, though, so pretty much, you know the water is what cools the motor. Correct. You know so I was just, Try ing to figure out like what it was that like, you know, it was really hot. So obviously, the water wasn't getting to it, but when I opened, there was no reading in there, right, Speaker 2 00:53:48 Which maybe it was just on for too long, then which leads me to believe that you know, it got hot, right, because we didn't have the water going through to cool. Okay. Um how are you guys feeling about finishing? Speaker 2 00:54:10 Yeah, I think so. I think this this top area needs to go. The reason why I'm asking is we haven't worked. Speaker 5 00:54:15 Too much on when I was there, we haven't worked too much on this side. Yeah, but like that side over there is pretty good. Like you know maybe a few touches with the drill should be fine, but I think maybe there's a pretty good chance of my. But I mean look for me to finish like cleaning all the rebar possibly, But like we're gonna have to like bag up the cement and all that stuff. Speaker 2 00:54:40 Okay, here's my thing. I need to get um we need to get over to uh Rocky Point at some point in time to finish up the DC Pro. I don't think that needs to be a two man deal necessarily. So, I guess the question is, What time do we need to leave here to go do that at Rocky Point today? Yeah, because honestly, I need that finished today. I don't necessarily, Mhm. Membrane tea got done. The reason why we're not there the first thing this morning doing that is because they did it yesterday afternoon. So I wanted more cure time, right? So they got there about one o'clock. I think if I was got there by one o'clock, so right after lunch, okay. Speaker 6 00:55:30 Okay, and then probably not a big deal putting it down putting it on right? Okay. Speaker 5 00:55:40 Um. Speaker 5 00:56:11 Well, but either way, H Street's right here. Speaker 2 00:56:13 Should be a scale over there. I can check for that. Speaker 5 00:56:15 Yeah, no, there should be three. Speaker 2 00:56:17 Yeah, well they took they brought all that over there yesterday. So there's a pressure washer there right now. There's a vacuum there right now. Um I think my only yeah okay could go there and come back here. Speaker 2 00:56:40 Yeah, but then we're, you know. So okay. Let's do that. Let's plan for someone to be over there by one. Um. Speaker 2 00:57:05 Yeah, I think I'd prefer you. Nothing against, You know, he's got you know, he'll know. You know exactly what. Um, all right. So is the pressure washer doing a good job of getting this off right now? Doing it over there. We kind of yeah, it's taking it off. I think maybe if we would have this is easier to get from that. There's more room. Speaker 2 00:57:39 But redundant, so that guy drill. But if you get anything with the drill that the pressure washer can do, then it's redundant, right? And that's something we can be working on elsewhere. So um yeah okay. Speaker 5 00:58:08 Yeah, I was working my way this way. Oh, okay, okay. Speaker 1 00:59:10 It's Not going up and over though. That might be the issue is that maybe it's not maybe it's too high. Speaker 5 00:59:21 I mean, the first day it was it was working perfectly. If you if you go to that corner and you take your glance down, that area should have water in it. You'll see like where it's kind of like wet. It was working fine, like the whole area was like had water in it. Speaker 2 01:00:04 I've got that other pump for my truck, so let's go get that. Speaker 1 01:01:35 Yeah, you know me. I just kind of like. yeah, yeah. For sure. I wish you would. Sorry. Speaker 2 01:09:16 I'm going at it. I can still see the ribs are still going to do their job, you know. Like I think I'm all right with that. And then if we've got time, we can come back and. Speaker 2 01:09:52 I just called Brandon right now. I just got this whole area, so I don't think you need to get any of this in here. You know, to the corner. I'd probably try to wire wheel that stuff. I didn't want to, I didn't want to get the wood underneath, but I'd try to probably try to wire wheel this stuff right here. But I think I'm going to call this good, and we'll call it a nine, right? It's not a ten but it's a nine and forty one percent, Come if we're finished and we want to make it all a ten. At whatever, one o'clock, two o'clock, fine. Right? One hundred and ten. Yeah. Now I haven't seen it from this side, right? If you're going to shoot from the inside, Speaker 1 01:10:38 We got to get. Speaker 1 01:10:52 Without it running, we need to hold it off. Turn. Speaker 2 01:10:59 The water off on there. You can throw it in the pool. Speaker 1 01:11:27 It just came off from the washer right here. That's. Speaker 2 01:11:33 My alarm. No, I'm making sure there's no damage anywhere really. Oh, I see. Speaker 1 01:11:45 Thank you. Thank you. Speaker 2 01:11:51 All right. Um. So. We just need to repair the hose, Brad. Yeah. Just a clamp, yeah? Came off or the clamp broke? Well, and then why is it so hot? Some thought maybe when it's. There should be pressure. This should be releasing pressure here when it gets too much. Oh. It was steaming. Oh okay. Speaker 2 01:12:26 We can connect it. I don't know. No, it won't make it. I can go get more hoses. We have another hose, we have another hose downstairs, right? You think so? It was clamped on there, I guess. No, no, no, I don't mean like that. Speaker 4 01:12:51 Just clamp works; it just came off. Speaker 2 01:12:55 It's like. What about that hose? Well, it's broken. Why is it here? Why haven't we fixed it yet? Right, especially if we're going to go on site somewhere. Like, We need to know why is he telling me about the pump today or yesterday? Yeah, I mean probably. You know, I can do very little in the morning. Right. Speaker 2 01:13:23 That's Why I was just pressure washer on it Because. Speaker 2 01:13:30 Uh, you know, screwdriver in here, right? Yeah. Uh flathead? Yeah. Small one? Yeah. Speaker 2 01:13:57 My Guess is. Matt. All right. Are we good to get this going again? Yeah, okay. Um, I'm gonna let you guys. I'm gonna grab my hose. Speaker 6 01:14:10 And hook it up to it here because this doesn't have a hose clamp on the end. It's probably gonna hold up for that a little bit better. I'll actually try to keep the water flowing through it. Speaker 5 01:14:21 Maybe we'll just pump off, I mean, if you think about it like you can use it for how long? You know, Speaker 2 01:14:26 Is eight o'clock? Just just finish today's Yeah. Speaker 2 01:14:30 Put it back on. Um, but that being said, we probably shouldn't have it facing the building. Yeah, Speaker 5 01:14:38 I only did that because of the exhaust, butum I think oh I'll just turn it completely face the pool. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:14:46 Um, if you're having any kind of a, you know, like up one time in the morning, though, right? Oh in the morning after yeah yeah down there day uh but, And that way I can come over the back up. Right, I mean to be honest, it was like basically the right place. Speaker 5 01:15:05 I wasn't really about to clock out. It was just checking in for my squad leader. Butum by the way, I'm here. I forgot, had forgot actually but yeah. Speaker 2 01:15:12 Okay so all rightum so Brandon, I'll meet you over at Rocky Point at one at Rocky Point at one. Speaker 1 01:15:57 Okay. Speaker 1 01:18:33 Hey, where'd you where'd you go. Speaker 2 01:18:40 Oh, okay. Um, do you by chance have the sand in your truck. Okay. Uh, where are you Where are you parked I can drive to you. Go in your truck and then I'll pull the sand from from itum. Speaker 2 01:19:04 I saw the bag on the ground. Yeah, so do me a favor, shoot me a text once you get to your truck and just say, "Hey, I'm on my way." Cool. Thanks. Speaker 1 01:22:03 Thank you. Speaker 4 01:22:33 Fabio said to you, Victor and two others, my wife is taking him. Her phone is seven, one four five one zero, four four eight, eight. In case you need it. And get better Ben. Speaker 1 01:22:49 Fabio said to the. Speaker 2 01:24:13 Hey Siri, call Poncho Rodriguez. Speaker 4 01:24:18 Calling Poncho Rodriguez. Other. Speaker 2 01:24:46 Hey. Hey, how's it going? It's going alright. Um, just wanted to follow up with you on our on our uh issue. Um, I don't think you know I when it's I've measured it three times in several different ways. I can't I can't get it to be any different. Um So uh, I think it's three eighths but, You know, I. I looked at it and it was like. It's square. We checked it all. It's square, but you know what it is to like. You know, obviously it's not square on on at some point, but you know three eighths inch over fifty feet is zero. You know when you try to point zero zero seven five. So it's just like you know I am just you know I am just gonna. Speaker 2 01:25:44 I'm gonna move the line so it's square, so it's the same dimension. And uh and then we're gonna, you know, then we'll be good there. And so we'll look and then we'll plug that. Okay. I think in general everything's you know good. And, then we can get. And at that point in time, we'll have gotten rid of you know anything that was gone. You know? It all looks, it all looks good. So I told him put up the line, said put up the line here, Make it the same as the other side. So that way we can measure off and do our float. And whatnot. You know, And then make sure that same distance from you know, from the house side to the to the south side, you know, on both ends. You know. And then and then we'll square it off one more time just to make sure you know. Okay. And then we'll. Speaker 2 01:26:43 You know, and then we'llbleed it out over the float. So I think I think we're good there. Speaker 6 01:26:48 Okay, still wondering where it went wrong. You know, I know you do too, Speaker 2 01:26:54 But yeah, I mean it's like hearing you know. Speaker 6 01:26:58 Yeah, because the biggest issue for me is going to be when they bring their uh their coping out of the house, right? And it's almost like, hey, you got a weird cut down. We got a three eighths inch sliver that we gotta bury somewhere. You know. Um, that's that's gonna be the problem. Like, that's the big picture, right? When they bring out this grid of coping from the house towards the pool, then they have this weird joint. Um, that becomes a problem you know when it's all said and done. Speaker 2 01:27:31 Yeah. Um maybe I need to talk to Hef about it. Speaker 6 01:27:37 Yeah yeah I mean that's my only, And the thing is, it's like we lost all our control lines months ago. And it's like, fuck man. And I know they have to build the house, and this is where sometimes I am like Corey, we just got to stay where we are, finish it. I know you got to sell jobs, and then we got to get to other places, but hey guys, I didn't say shit, so they were staying for a week or two weeks until I get something else going. Um, and it's just uh you start to lose these control lines and stuff, and then the aftermath for me anyways, the way I see it the way I operate like fuck man, how did we? Speaker 6 01:28:10 You know, but things sit around, things get moved. People not that they're careless; they just don't know. Like, huh? What's that string line? Just take it off. Do that piece of wood in our way; just cut it. You know, and it's like, what the fuck? You know, Like uh six street had to do a layout since we started probably like six times, right? Because, hey, you got to move that two, by four. Hey, we got to do waterproofing. Hey, the windows are going in. Hey, you got to move that batter board, and it's like fuck, you know, and it's just. You know, you just got to do it as you go along. And we'll see how that one ended up. You know, right? But, there is an opportunity to check it once they do shock, treat again and be like," All right, cool, we're squared up. We're here. We're there." You know, and it's a smaller space versus Eighth Street. You know? Speaker 2 01:28:57 Yeah. And, you know, I mean, I can even check it now since he's got all those lines up already, right? And yeah See. Speaker 6 01:29:05 Because the thing is, Even the framer, when I was laying out the pool, Rick gave me some advice. He's like, "Hey, just so you know, dude go off go off the foundation. Go off the concrete work for the house. Don't go off the framing. " Cause I can tell you that I know for a fact that the framing is off like three quarters from here to here, like at the width of the house. I am like, oh, he's like and I checked the foundation work, and that's pretty spot on compared to our framing. So if we're going to do parallel lines work off of this. Speaker 6 01:29:35 You know, and Rick was already aware. Like okay, I know it's going to be an issue with our stonework when we're coming out of the house. He's like, but we're going to have to bury a cut. So they're they're already a little tweakle coming out of the house, right? And. So um as long as you know, like an understanding, like okay, this is we're parallel to this line or something. And and I know it's it's a lot of work. It sounds like a lot of work because it is, you know. But when it's all said and done, it's like okay you know. Speaker 6 01:30:04 Easier to bury the three eighths joint somewhere, or like, hey, Let's spend next amount of time, whatever it takes to make sure that these lines are where they're supposed to be. You know. Speaker 2 01:30:15 Right. Um. Well and I think it's all like, you know, even the, you know, you know, landscapers, because he saw me looking at he's like, what do you got and I'm like, what do you mean he's like? Well, we have to line up with the property line. And so. And but I am so but I am lining up with the property line, but I am looking at your your wall here, the the cover wall, you know, the transverse. And uh and and he's like, and I see you looking. And I know what you know. I know that that you know so it you know what? Am like it's got three eighths man. And he's like that's weird. Am I am exactly three eighths inch off of the off of the uh, the property line? Was like God, don't I can't say that we went off of the properly property. Speaker 2 01:31:03 Property line. I am just, you know, so obviously, you know, You are saying that when somebody chose a line to go off of and everything's getting whacked. Yeah, Speaker 6 01:31:12 The main control line the main control lineum came off of that. I don't know what to call it. T here is that wall that runs parallel with the uh with the alley, like at the second floor, right, like like almost like the barrier. So you don't fall off from the top of a garage when you are looking down to the alley. Like we had a control line that stretched from a corner of the house. All the way past the transverse wall, The pool to like the south property line almost like that was a full length. There is probably like seventy eighty feet. And we measured off of the uh, that wall. Right, you measured like two feet. You did like two foot offset. And from there, we we measured at the house close to the big sliders, right. We went perpendicular to that long string line that I just described. And that's when Rick's like, hey, just just go off the foundation. Speaker 6 01:32:01 We checked it off the foundation. I am like, "Yeah, dude, we're good off of that foundation." Not the framing. He's like, "Yeah, go off of that because the framing I know for a fact is off." I said, "Cool," and that was that was the primary control line. Right after that one we lost way before shotcrete. Right? And. So it's like I don't even know if t here is a way to measure off of that wall anymore because I know they put stucco ;, they did a bunch of stuff. So, you are going to have little humps and indentations and It's like, oh, all right, well, That's where we're at." You know, but I mean, like I said, That's a whole freaking day of just laying that out to make sure we're on point. You know, which sucks. Speaker 1 01:32:38 Yeah. I. Speaker 2 01:32:41 Got you man. So yeah, Speaker 6 01:32:43 I mean, you can tell Corey, hey, uh, I talked to Ponch a couple of times, you know, on the drive home. And and and you know, we just want to bring it to your attention if it's something that requires like handling, let's figure it out or anything like that, how do y'all handle it? Speaker 2 01:32:58 Yeah You know where he is? Speaker 6 01:33:01 Uh, no clue. No clue. We uh exchanged some texts yesterday, But nothing where hey, I am going to be here tomorrow in case you need something. None of that was discussed or mentioned. Speaker 1 01:33:14 Yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Speaker 6 01:33:21 So I'll have to get you guys set up string lines like all four and and you still keep measuring the same thing same thing. Speaker 2 01:33:27 Yeah, yeah three different shapes saving, I went and got measured, you know, long ways. You know, so I went and got my hundred foot long, you know. You know, deal and that's that's even. So, it's like you know, the only the only thing that I am coming different on is, is uh you know basically that transverse you know, cover wall side. And I am getting it's consistently three eighths inch up. Speaker 1 01:34:06 So. All right. Speaker 2 01:34:09 So. All right, um. Yeah, so I'll call him and. Speaker 6 01:34:19 Okay. All right, Well, maybe he'll reach out to me if I hear nothing from him. I'll text you later in the day or something on my drive home. Like, hey, did you guys come up with anything or? Speaker 6 01:34:31 Like I said, I just, I just want to know why. You know, If if you are doing the three four five things at the corners, and it's like, hey, those look legit that looks legit like, why is it not. I know rectangle. Speaker 2 01:34:45 Well because I think you canbleed that out right. I've run into a couple problems here and there where like when I am doing SketchUp, you know and, I realize like on some things like if I do a small like oh, I want a ninety off of this. Or whatever, right? Or actually, it'll be something different because it wouldn't be a ninety. Because let's catch up; it's easy, but it's like oh, I you know forty five right? Because because on nineties it'll snap a certain color and you know right? But like on a forty five or something like that. And I at one point I was like man, I am like off. Why am I off? It should be. I think it was when I was doing alpine for the octagon. It's like why is it that, I can't get like that last piece to join. It's like a sixteenth off right? Like. Speaker 2 01:35:30 Yeah, and I realized that if I wanted to go, if I wanted to make this thing you know be perfect, I had to actually like make that three four five essentially really long. Right? I just said like no, I am not just going to the end of the spa. I am going to go twenty feet beyond the spa and say, that's a forty five degree angle. And then all of a sudden you know, It snapped into place, and so I realized that a couple times. And I think it's just a matter of like," Yeah, sure, It's forty five degrees here because because it's point zero zero seven five at that point." You know what I mean? It's like you know, it rounds off because it only goes to two digits or whatever. It is you know. Speaker 6 01:36:14 Yeah, by the time you wrap around theoctagon, All the little minuscule miscues or mismeasurements, just it all added up to that sixteenth. You know right which is, Which is like nothing really, but obviously you need to get good alignment on your finishes. You know, it's like wait what the heck? So yeah, no I get it. Speaker 2 01:36:31 And with with SketchUp, like what'll happen is like you when you put two when you close, like we'll just say when you close a square right? Yeah. Um it'll it'll make a wall right? So you just basically go, You know, line one two, three four when that fourth one connects if there's no openings right? Then it'll say, "Oh, that's a that's a face, right?" And and it'll make the face for you. But like there are times where it's been like probably wasn't even a sixteenth, right? It could have been like you know. But what'll happen but SketchUp's exact, right? So all of a sudden, it's like, why isn't the face? Why isn't it automatically popping up on the face? Like I clicked right on that button, right? And. And then you start start you zoom in zoom in. It's like oh, it's not really touching. Speaker 2 01:37:20 And I think you end up so SketchUp like points it out for you, whereas in construction you go," It's touching it. It's there, right?" So yeah, yeah. So anyways, um all right, I'll talk to him, and you know, um Yeah, no dude, just just just don't. Speaker 6 01:37:40 Don't don't be careful with your words. Just, just whatever you got to say, say it, and and you know, and if I have to go out there and check something, then I'll check it. You know, it is what it is. You know, If I mishandled something or me not being there and then I didn't check how they were transferring points, then it's like," All right, well, I guess that's what happened." You know. Speaker 2 01:38:05 Yeah, And I think that you know, the only thing, you know, unfortunately, if you are not there, you know, like at the time the guys are doing it t here is no real way. You know but i think if t here is got to be like a, Well, we should, and that's why I told him to check. You know after after you move the line, square it up one more time like just to make sure. Yeah. Um And I think if they would have done those measurements, you knowum They would have caught that. Something wrong here. Speaker 6 01:38:37 So Yeah Use the three four five. And if you get three four five, right, we're talking times three or times four Like. If you get that past the the transverse wall back there. Speaker 2 01:38:52 Okay, I think when we're doing precision stuff, like you know, we're human, right. We yeah. All right. Man, holy crap I just had dude I'm gonna freaking. I'm gonna FaceTime you right now. Why is that You need to see this. Speaker 6 01:39:11 Oh man, look at me. What. Speaker 2 01:39:16 Am I looking at? Oh hold on, no no oh there's a. Speaker 2 01:39:21 No, I'm still here. No, not you. There he is. You see him? Speaker 6 01:39:26 Get your spidey senses. Wait. Uh, I don't know. Speaker 2 01:39:32 How'd it get in my truck? I've. Speaker 6 01:39:37 Had one of those in my visor and I know they're the size of your thumbnail. Speaker 2 01:39:42 Yeah, so anyways, I better uh, I better go get it before it hides on me. Speaker 6 01:39:52 It has its clan somewhere in your dashboard, somewhere. Speaker 2 01:39:57 Yeah. All right, brother. Well, I mean, give me a call. Let me know what happens. We'll do. All right? All right, we'll see you later. Bye- bye. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:43:41 Everything's square all the way around, longitudinal, transverse. But when you go transverse at the bench aw. Speaker 2 01:44:12 With okay. Well, let's just move the that string line that they got there. Eventually. Speaker 1 01:44:23 Yeah, super. Speaker 2 01:44:35 Clear on this. We need every bit of concrete off the rebar or then wire wheel everything. Speaker 2 01:44:56 So. Sure you want to spray it now? Uh might might I don't mind doing it. Spray it in twice just in case you know like so. Okay, yeah. Okay, um. Speaker 2 01:45:22 Um, but if I spray it tomorrow, I don't have a problem with it. But if I spray it tomorrow, they'd be there and Rowan and Renee would be on the other side. Cool. Oh, they'll do the BT Pro. I told them to go over there at one o'clock at one eight Yeah, same amount of time. So right Correct. Speaker 2 01:45:58 They're floating, so I wish they. yeah, I meant to tell them that they're doing a double flip. Top and bottom. So. Yeah, and so. Correct. Because I wanted to clear this three eighths or two up. Speaker 2 01:46:31 Yeah, so I mean, I'm gonna, i'm gonna have him focus more on um on. Uh you know, just setting up all the float trips and whatnot. So that way Monday, I mean they can go town floating and won't just be you know, Renee or Renee floating alone. And we'll because I also said like hey, you know this is a good opportunity for you to like Float with him like he floats next to you, and you guys both float right, and you can start tweaking it out. Speaker 2 01:47:44 Um, I need to look at yeah. Let me let me look at that more because uh, I think it's right there, But I want to put actual numbers there instead of telling you something and making up this brain. Um, so I'll uh, I'll get that for you today. And I've almost got the detail, finished up on the um on the cover wall. Um so does he. Speaker 2 01:48:37 Right, right. No, that's my that's my priority. So he's going from the house wall to the south wall, And then I just wanted to have something before he started on the other one. So um all right position. So about it like I'll be honest with you. They said, thirty five bucks an hour as a start. And then once they see that we can do it I can you know? And that might just be a hey, yeah, you know, and you're never gonna get a raise. So he's like I don't wanna work anywhere else I wanna work here. You guys have a good environment. I think I can go places here, but I also, you know, fiance just moved out here trying to make a life. You know, and I was trying to think on both sides of this so So absolutely. Um, I think.I think look,s i mean. Speaker 2 01:49:35 You know, when we started looking at this originally, it was like, "Yeah, the going rate is one eighty." Um. It seemed like and that's a good rate and whatnot, but that's for a tile right? You know on a whole nother level realizing like no, this is so much more than just tile. Right? So, you know, so many installers have come through and just been like, man throw them back, you know, um. Here's kind of what I would say if I was going to give you a good comparison. I'd say, If you could have somebody with the skills of Marquise that wanted to learn and do better and would take care of his guys, you know, would you pay for Marquise again? You know, if Marquise would take better care of his guys and, you know, be willing to listen to you. Speaker 2 01:50:44 I think I think it's more of a team thing than than a him thing. You know, uh he's doing. Honestly, I I think, you know, there's some aspects of our process that I think are slowing us down too. No we're not gonna. You know look at look at how much time we've lost just by fixing stupid, you know, spot patch cracks, and we're grinding up PC Pro when we're doing network work. This stuff would have been seen sooner um back spreading me you know, You got two guys literally installing the tile, and that's just flipping it on. You know, you can pop that straight stuff out. Speaker 2 01:52:02 Mhm. I'm not saying. I agree with you. Yeah. Speaker 1 01:53:11 It's uh. Speaker 2 01:53:16 Screw yeah. Speaker 2 01:53:29 They're Not, they're they're I I look, I I think. I understand your point and there's definitely a, You know, there's definitely a negative number there that that gets applied to the profit. You got boxes for it? You know, But because in many ways, he's you know, in many ways, he's trying to make the go of it. The best way he can with us. Um so as you probably know what you know what Mark Dean made, you know. Speaker 2 01:54:10 You know, If he's trying to push himself that way, because he believes that you know he can get as good as Martine. Yeah. Um, right? He can't be king is nearly as close, you know, as Martine and he doesn't lead his goals like him. Um so I feel better about him. I used to leave Martine and go and and I think some of that, too, by the way, was Martine. Speaker 2 01:55:10 But I, I think he's worth it. And I do think that if, I don't think we're far. Honestly, I don't think we're far from being at a point where you don't need to be here. Um, you know, I'd even say, I would tell you to depending on where you want this company to be. You know like if we were if if you said Braden, I don't want to grow at all. Uh, I would say, I don't think you can make this. Speaker 1 01:56:15 Yeah. I. Speaker 2 01:56:32 Think that we could do, you know, um, you can probably work it a couple different ways. Um, And again, it kind of depends on what your long-term strategy is, you know. Um, if you wanted to go back into the service truck business, There's that would be a a way to kind of go ahead and give you this for not all of that. You know, I think the truck is probably worth 100. I don't know. I used to take i used to say 12 grand, you know. Um but it's a truck i i used to say 12 grand. Speaker 2 01:57:13 I don't think you can. Speaker 2 01:57:42 Not me, you know, or feel comfortable talking to him. Um, we're trying to get, you know, him. I said I used you as an example and an idea. And uh, you know, I told him he needs to start speaking English if he's trying to make more money. I told him that's what's keeping him. He was like, okay, I'll try it out, and they said, yeah, try it out, let me know. And I just want to know your opinion so I can. So he came up with me yesterday and just like. You know. Something I am stuck doing. okay. one weld right now is, I'd say somebody who has a willingness to be a good leader, but doesn't know how. like yeah, He's getting much better, much, much better. You know, holding the guys watching the guys, make sure there's no more like pulling and just stay there even if you're wrong. And then I'll tell you. Speaker 2 01:59:24 So, yeah, and that's what I. Speaker 1 02:00:25 The Uh The level. Speaker 2 02:00:36 Elevation. Speaker 1 02:01:25 So. Speaker 2 02:01:56 I'll I'll uh I'll draw it. Speaker 2 02:02:16 But One inch and a half. You got the sixteen? One inch, I do. Speaker 1 02:02:26 So what the coping one. Speaker 1 02:03:18 You. Speaker 1 02:03:52 Thank you. Speaker 2 02:06:24 Three and a half over there. Three and seven eighths here. Speaker 3 02:09:23 Um, I gotta go there now. When would I do that? Speaker 3 02:10:10 What's this one? Speaker 1 02:10:40 No, no, not that. No, not like that. Speaker 2 02:13:13 So Five eighths here, three and a half over there. Speaker 3 02:13:21 I can move the line between. It gets bigger over there. Speaker 1 02:14:07 One and three sixteen. One sixteen. I. Speaker 2 02:14:32 Think it's let me check again with a. Speaker 2 02:14:57 One in three sixteen. So, it's the uh, Martin. What Dante is right? Right. Okay, ellos puede, you know. That's right. Speaker 1 02:15:31 316. 316. One up, double. Speaker 2 02:16:14 It's not a three eight. So. Yeah, no extra floating. Okay. I'm gonna call Corey, but that's that's the. I move the the line. Yeah. The extra screw, right? Yeah. Okay. All right, can we uh Rocky point? Don't be wrong. How fast how fast can we finish? Speaker 2 02:17:15 So, today, here. Tomorrow, Rocky Point. So I'm gonna go check. Where did you put the sample? Okay. Speaker 3 02:17:35 So tomorrow, I'll rock you home. Speaker 3 02:17:44 Yeah, we need the the ground bags. Yeah, because. Speaker 2 02:18:08 It's yeah yeah. Speaker 3 02:18:17 I Think the cracks, the cracks is. No, I checked it yesterday. Oh yeah? Yeah. Because. Speaker 2 02:18:27 Also the board is flexible too. So when you move it, we need next time three quarters. That was uh cheap. No dinero, Oh no no don't get up again. Right. Oh yeah. Oh you know. Yeah no no okay it's fine. Alright thank you. Speaker 3 02:18:50 You could have just uh. No that's okay, that's okay, Speaker 1 02:18:58 That's okay, that's okay, Speaker 2 02:19:04 That's okay, I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good That was a lot of noise there. But it was fine. It was fine. It was fine. It was fine. It was fine. Okay. Oh, I think in my truck. Um, come on, start running. Okay. Come with me to my truck. Speaker 2 02:20:23 In The morning. Speaker 2 02:20:46 I'm just walking. Speaker 2 02:21:23 And uh, but when we finish. The wind, the snow, like it. So, he told me to go with the trucking. You know? Oh yeah? And man I had, you know?
