Thinking of Starting Your Service Business?! Listen to This
This is the only video that I have watched from your channel. Just from listening to you talk you sound intelligent. After going through the comments you either do a great job of removing the ones that disagree with you or none of them understand why you were fired either. My opinion is you were the outsider that stepped into the “good ol boys” club and made someone higher up than you afraid that you were going to take their job. So they took the first opportunity to eliminate the competition.
Given most of us have experienced the loss of a job, regardless of the reason, I would say don't let this define you as a person or family. All things in life happen for a reason. sometimes the wrong reason, and maybe this is the best for you in the long run in terms of a learning experience. The right position will find you if you stay positive. Place your energies in finding the next career move as you did your last position by treating it as a job, start at 7Am and end at 7PM, that effort will pay off. Your right in moving on and forward, we wish you and your family the best.
I first found your channel from the "I got Fired" video. I then watched some of the Gutter videos as I was in the middle of cleaning my gutters also. I enjoy some of the TimeLapse videos but they leave me wanting more. Even in todays video, I was wondering what is he putting in that bucket. Then I was thinking that, that pressure washer is really spraying weak. Of course later on I could figure out you just sprayed on some kind of cleaner and then turned on the power washer to blast it off. I really want to be brought along with you and hear you talk more telling the story as you are doing things. If you have time. I watch the Channel, DRAIN ADDICT. The way he films his videos and brings you along keeps me coming back for more. I would love to see that type of interacting with your content. It's a little different but it gives you that First Person perspective. I would be interested to hear what you think of his filming style and if you think you could do something similar. Anyway, wishing you the best of luck with your business.
@@GlennBennettJr i really appreciate your feedback! All valid points and super helpful. I will definitely keep your points in mind as I film more content!
15:40 unfortunately it sounds like you need to learn to document document documents, that means even if you have a verbal conversation in the hallway or the bathroom the first thing you do is return to your desk and fire off an email to that person confirming the exact content of your verbal communication.
Something better will come out of this.
You should have said don't move on your own dime. if a company wants to pick up the bill for moving you somewhere and pay for all relocation expenses down to guaranteeing or even carrying financing on your new home and assuming losses on the home that you currently live in plus a 3 to 5 year golden Parachute by all means move, everything I stipulated is a corporate standard package for relocating an employee.. Anything less I wouldn't even entertain moving down the block for a company.
The only reason you got a detailed dismissal letter is because they knew they were firing you without enough cause and that you could and probably would come back and sue them for all of your expenses in moving your whole family
Any sales position selling heavy labor hours vs materials is very difficult. Roofing companies are hand to mouth. If your owed the $50,000 then sit with a good attorney. You need strong contracts for commissions. I have often thought a roofing consulting business would work in the commercial sector. Market your self to contractors and real estate professionals. Architectural firms .material streams.
People talking in their car on YT is a thing now
So here’s a different perspective,After decades of 20 w2s a year I’ve learned to leave the Fam behind,Establish a job ,Then move the family,Sometimes I would put them in the middle of the left or right coast
Roofing companies are criminal
Sue the snot out of them. Ugh! It’s the only thing some people understand.
What a farce! What kind of an imbecile makes an offer that requires someone to totally relocate and then allows a shallow shadow of a person wipe them out like this? Does their company statement include the fact that the company is obviously run by a group of apparent juveniles? Who does this? Complete childish behavior! Are there any adults in the company at all? Who started this business?
Is your ebook still available?
Git er done👍🏻
I need your help my guy. I wanna start this business. I could use some tips on how to quote, what too look for, cons all that good stuff. Great video to start with. Do you power wash the gutters to?
I want to know what Company. Texas is the most competitive roofing state, if they are burning sales guys they need to be named, shamed, and put out of business. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to fire someone, there is no legitimate reason to not pay what is owed.
Getting screwed on pay is easily fixed under the law. Vote better.
I’m from Houston and the roofing companies in Texas are a joke. Texas is a right to fire state and companies take that to heart. They will fire and hire a new guy with the swiftness. That’s why you see a lot of roofing contractors, guys help build roofing companies and get laid off 2,3,4, even 5 times in their career and eventually get tired of it. You’re at an age where you can do that. Get your LLC and your certs and do it yourself.
Where in Texas did u move to brother?!
The worst part of playing the victim, is that "getting even" will huant you for the rest of you life.
Good thing I'm not playing the victim or trying to get even. Just telling my story
@Brettpat in this day and age, warning must be given.
Brett what happened to you was quite awful. At least you’re moving on outside of that. Take it day by day. Don’t let what happened eat you up. It will affect you and those around you negatively. You don’t want to lose your greatest supporters😀👍🏾.
Welcome to Texas! I got fired from a job just for going to a funeral 😕 some i feel your pain
Sometimes you're the bird, other times you're the statue.
No honor among thieves in the roofing business
PIP is fake. Never relocate for any job in America
When you said Houston, I knew where this was going. Employers in Houston and probably the rest of Texas are heavy handed. My experience....
Welcome to Texas republican run state
The company could be near bankruptcy, especially if they owe money to lots of people.
I have been in corporate for over 30 years. NEVER permanently move for a new job. If you need to, get a room-by-the-week for the first six months. Always assume that any day on the job is the last day.
THIS! I work for a big corporate company. We have gone through 3 General Managers in 3 years. Every one of them moved here form out of state to work here. None of them were here more than 1 year. Now we have another guy who just moved here and started last week. I feel like telling him he made a bad decision taking this job. This guy is younger and less experience than the previous 3 GMs we had too.
You should have said don't move on your own dime. if a company wants to pick up the bill for moving you somewhere and pay for all relocation expenses down to guaranteeing or even carrying financing on your new home and assuming losses on the home that you currently live in plus a 3 to 5 year golden Parachute by all means move, everything I stipulated is a corporate standard package for relocating an employee..

Lawyer time. Preserve your rights. Money is owed you. You earned commissions and deserve to collect them.
My ex son in law, a hunting and fishing guide, was done wrong by some millionaires who opened a lodge. After moving 3 hours from where they lived, and buying a home, he ended up going back into business for himself. He took them to court, and they did have to reimburse him for the move.
I keep my fingers crossed for you. There are people out there that will screw you over, I've been screwed over a lot of times. You just have to keep going.
You are lucky to be fired. No one in their right mind deserves to live in Texas
I’m quitting, so much less pressure, hard work, and aggravation.
I think that company scammed you out of your money, my friend. I think they do this too many many people and just rotate people in and out to sell their product and then rip them off without paying their commission.
I don’t understand how this company cannot pay you your commissions when you earned them just because they fired you.
Texas.
Sounds like a crazy situation. I am sure you are better off now. I highly suggest the book Extreme Ownership for you. As an independent worker it can be valuable to have a mindset like it is talked about in that book. ua-cam.com/video/u-kyRZLE3hE/v-deo.htmlsi=9Kd5PIer0mLOdNjd
This type of experience is common in Texas. Pursue any and all avenues for remuneration, but don’t expect much.
Thank you Ronald Reagan for taking the advantages of a college education away from so many bright people who could have done so much more.
No one likes Beta males . Especially Texas.
Well you certainly have a potential as a cognitive dissonance coach. I particularly like the back and fort pivot from "I take extreme ownership for what happens to me" and "don't play the victim card" to "I got fired on a random day for no good reason" and "I was about to hit the lottery and then I got screwed" I'll check back in a month to watch the next "I got screwed" video and the first day as an HEB stocker.
If the company is so bad why don’t you name them?
Capitalism is awesome.❤❤
Big losses create, and fuel bigger accomplishments. Your spirit is their loss. 66 now, and humble to be in charge.
Sounds like a shitty company.
WTF I’m hearing you made this talk and I have no idea who the hell you’re talking about make that clear. This is frustrating. Otherwise go quiet just ridiculous. I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about
Pray up God in control it’s hurts I know put he will open doors 🙏🏻
He’s most likely a 1099. He’s not an employee. He’s a subcontractor. What part of Texas is this guy in ?
Hail season for Dallas is in a few months. We have had a number of storms in the last few yrs. The whole DFW metroplex gets smoked every year. I see the sign in the back looks like you’re located in Katy. I grew up there. Nice place. Not the best environment for hail consistently.
@@kyleheard8433 I was a W-2 employee with a salary + commission pay structure. I am located in Houston.
@@Brettpat that’s tough bro. Roofing industry is a beast. Your 1 in 10,000 a year that get taken advantage of unfortunately. Happened to me as well when I first started. Not sure how familiar you are with the Dallas Fort Worth market I live in a city called Frisco. I moved here from Houston 10 years ago. I started my company and I found success. Make the 4 he drive to bring my son to see his grandparents who still live in Houston every couple weeks. Are you at 10:99 now or did you stay at W-2 at your new company?
I'm 1099 now on a 10/50/50 split. I'm familiar with that area but never been
