The people’s skills to deal with customers have you ever thought of working on the sales side I don’t think I’ll have attitude for it in certain agree I don’t talk to people but could I do it I’ll I’ll I’ll me rag a little bit it’s I lose I mean I

Deal with people you know when it was just me and you when I just take deposits and I I can chat to people through all the warranty without boring them yeah but could I do it day in day out no no no I don’t we’re all suited to

Things I could I couldn’t do it I do I do chat to people I mean before I S one I remember when you saw remember you forgot to put the zero at theend do you mind me telling about that that one so way sold her I I had to go
