So, we 00:15:02.299 --> 00:15:05.159 had to make sure that all the different systems, 00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:09.049 the airline systems, the the rail system and 00:15:09.049 --> 00:15:13.590 so on and for example the hotel system because 00:15:13.590 --> 00:15:16.269 once you get to Nice you got to go to Marriott 00:15:16.269 --> 00:15:21.669 or to wherever all right so we have to make sure 00:15:21.669 --> 00:15:25.269 that whoever is making the reservation on your 00:15:25.269 --> 00:15:29.370 behalf is connected to all this system and find 00:15:29.370 --> 00:15:33.830 availability and book for you and then it will 00:15:33.830 --> 00:15:36.230 come on one record which they will print and 00:15:36.230 --> 00:15:39.080 give it to you And then you will know that on 00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.720 such and such date you're going to go to DFW 00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:45.659 to get the airplane from American Airlines to 00:15:45.659 --> 00:15:48.480 London, from London you're going to take the 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.519 high speed train to Paris or Paris etc. And then 00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:56.100 when you get to Nice you book, you arrive, you 00:15:56.100 --> 00:15:59.259 take a cab and you know enter and say okay here. 00:15:59.820 --> 00:16:03.159 and so on. It's transparent because you paid 00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.240 your fare. Now go ahead and make it happen. Okay. 00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:26.929 Okay so pretty simple, isn't it? Yeah, I'm sorry 00:16:26.929 --> 00:16:29.490 because it was talking to me at the same time, 00:16:29.490 --> 00:16:32.529 so I... Yeah, you're fine. But what made you 00:16:32.529 --> 00:16:36.070 disconnect from the job, the corporate job that 00:16:36.070 --> 00:16:38.750 you had? What made me what? Disconnect from the... 00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:50.220 is their downsides and they got rid of my department 00:16:50.220 --> 00:16:54.340 it was a quality area and they estimated that 00:16:54.340 --> 00:16:57.100 you know the development should have their own 00:16:57.100 --> 00:17:02.059 quality so therefore they didn't need a quality 00:17:02.059 --> 00:17:06.279 area quality you know department so they said 00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:09.369 adios and you know basically I have been there 00:17:09.369 --> 00:17:12.349 for such a long time, so they didn't want me 00:17:12.349 --> 00:17:15.710 to be there any further. You know, they have 00:17:15.710 --> 00:17:19.950 their own reasoning. Yes, of course. So, that 00:17:19.950 --> 00:17:24.390 was it? That was it. Interesting. Now, I try 00:17:24.390 --> 00:17:41.549 to do other things, you know? Yeah. switch positions 00:17:41.549 --> 00:17:45.230 before you fully left? One second, one second. 00:17:49.089 --> 00:17:52.450 I'm sorry, what? Did you try to switch positions 00:17:52.450 --> 00:17:56.109 before you left? Before they, you know, got rid 00:17:56.109 --> 00:17:59.250 of your department? Oh yeah, you know, they always 00:17:59.250 --> 00:18:01.609 tell you, okay, but it's last minute. You have 00:18:01.609 --> 00:18:04.250 a month. Of course. You know, you have a month. 00:18:04.849 --> 00:18:08.029 And unfortunately, you can't find anything in 00:18:08.029 --> 00:18:12.619 a month. Yes. So they knew they knew that they 00:18:12.619 --> 00:18:14.900 had to downside they had to reduce the number 00:18:14.900 --> 00:18:18.059 of employees especially the one that I've been 00:18:18.059 --> 00:18:22.319 there the longest because then It's money that 00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:40.099 they saving I got to a point where I tried to 00:18:40.099 --> 00:18:53.680 do other things. I even tried to... You know, 00:18:53.759 --> 00:19:00.140 it didn't work. Because I got fed up, you know, 00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.119 from working for corporate America. So I wanted 00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:08.099 to... to buy a franchise okay i i tried decalage 00:19:08.099 --> 00:19:11.140 okay it was around the time when the virus came 00:19:11.140 --> 00:19:13.720 and there was something in the contract that 00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:16.319 i didn't like they didn't want to remove and 00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:19.460 also you know i mean you putting lash you're 00:19:19.460 --> 00:19:22.759 so close to the client right right now the virus 00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:27.529 you know it's it's that time when the virus exploded 00:19:27.529 --> 00:19:32.150 and so on so it was you know get over unfortunately 00:19:32.150 --> 00:19:35.869 i had to 8b 8b court road yeah yeah yeah sorry 00:19:35.869 --> 00:19:41.309 sorry sorry yeah i got it yeah so eventually 00:19:41.309 --> 00:19:44.609 yeah you have to find your own yeah okay and 00:19:44.609 --> 00:19:49.890 uh but but uh i recorded for almost two years 00:19:50.170 --> 00:19:55.190 but in the end you know I had to step away because 00:19:55.190 --> 00:19:59.369 for two reasons one look on track and two I checked 00:19:59.369 --> 00:20:06.950 to see time to break even what I estimated wasn't 00:20:06.950 --> 00:20:10.089 going to happen because of the virus there were 00:20:10.089 --> 00:20:14.029 too many unknowns so I was set up for failure 00:20:14.029 --> 00:20:17.869 so I didn't and I you know I of course you know 00:20:17.869 --> 00:20:23.039 the only thing I had an MBA plus the work that 00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:26.960 I've done. And with that, I estimated that it 00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:31.240 wasn't going to work. So therefore, I gave up. 00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:35.599 I said, OK, well, let me cut my losses. So I 00:20:35.599 --> 00:20:39.500 have a question. Considering I'm 27, I'm curious. 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.019 If you could go back in time and give your 27 00:20:44.019 --> 00:20:47.980 -year -old age advice. What would it be? What 00:20:47.980 --> 00:20:50.200 would it be? What advice would you give yourself 00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:59.680 at the age of 27, just going into life? This 00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:05.880 is if you could go back of course. You were gonna 00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:09.380 say you're 27. Yes and I'm curious what since 00:21:09.380 --> 00:21:12.700 you are of course you're older than 27 but I'm 00:21:12.700 --> 00:21:16.519 currently 27. What advice would you go back to 00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:19.339 give your 27 year old self? What advice could 00:21:19.339 --> 00:21:23.039 you give yourself? For what? Just life. You're 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.180 heading into life. You're 27 heading into life. 00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:27.660 What advice could you give yourself? Life. Okay. 00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:36.059 First of all. Okay. I have two plans. Main plan, 00:21:36.299 --> 00:21:39.220 backup plan. Main plan, backup plan. Yes. Okay. 00:21:39.779 --> 00:21:41.980 Just like when you go to school, I have kids, 00:21:41.980 --> 00:21:46.599 you know, and they're in college and I tell them, 00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:50.420 you know, and I said, you know, and especially 00:21:50.420 --> 00:21:53.960 my son, he's going to his second year at Texas 00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:57.319 A &M and he said, he said, dad, can you send, 00:21:57.420 --> 00:22:00.519 he's over mom. Yeah. He said, dad, can you send 00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:04.400 me something? And then he said, no. For that, 00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:07.740 I got a B in that thing, you know? Yeah, the 00:22:07.740 --> 00:22:09.160 little thing, of course. Anyway, anyway. Like, 00:22:09.240 --> 00:22:11.200 can you give me a little $5? By the way, I got 00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:14.019 a B in gym. Could you send me a $20? I'm not 00:22:14.019 --> 00:22:17.039 working. Yeah, by the way, I didn't get a B in 00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:18.619 Spanish. All right, next. I said, you know, you 00:22:18.619 --> 00:22:20.819 should call me more often, by the way, but it's 00:22:20.819 --> 00:22:24.670 okay. Of course. call me other than for money 00:22:24.670 --> 00:22:28.589 okay you know it's all right i laugh but it's 00:22:28.589 --> 00:22:31.569 okay yeah it's natural that's just life eventually 00:22:31.569 --> 00:22:35.490 they'll learn especially when they there's some 00:22:35.490 --> 00:22:37.730 of them you can tell it's when they have their 00:22:37.730 --> 00:22:40.730 own children that's when they will really learn 00:22:40.730 --> 00:22:47.849 you know but anyway um so back up plan yes just 00:22:47.849 --> 00:22:52.109 like you know you go you go i was a premium student 00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:55.740 Okay. And then, you know, I noticed that I had 00:22:55.740 --> 00:23:00.640 tremors. So I said, I cannot be a doctor administrating, 00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:06.279 you know, a vaccine or doing surgery and so on. 00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:11.059 And my hands are not, you know, no. So I still 00:23:11.059 --> 00:23:13.700 finish the bachelor's degree, but I end up taking 00:23:13.700 --> 00:23:17.200 computer science. Okay. Where I'm going with 00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:23.349 that is because that, you know, One time I was 00:23:23.349 --> 00:23:29.829 putting the report into the computer and I put 00:23:29.829 --> 00:23:32.650 something wrong. Okay. And the computer came 00:23:32.650 --> 00:23:35.269 back and said wrong entry, please re -enter. 00:23:35.609 --> 00:23:38.630 Now I said, wait a minute, you know, how can 00:23:38.630 --> 00:23:42.509 you? And I checked, the computer was right. So 00:23:42.509 --> 00:23:44.730 I went, you know, I was talking to my advisor, 00:23:44.910 --> 00:23:48.029 I told him that. That was bad. Okay, of course. 00:23:48.410 --> 00:23:50.589 And the advisor said, well, why don't you stop 00:23:50.589 --> 00:23:55.849 taking, you know, photography, Spanish, and take 00:23:55.849 --> 00:23:58.730 computer science as your elective. Right. You 00:23:58.730 --> 00:24:02.410 know, that way you will see if you like it. And 00:24:02.410 --> 00:24:05.109 then I started taking, and I was making A's. 00:24:05.309 --> 00:24:10.150 I love it. And then, you know, when I noticed 00:24:10.150 --> 00:24:13.630 that, I talked to him and said, well, I said, 00:24:13.769 --> 00:24:16.829 well, would I get another diploma? He said, no. 00:24:17.069 --> 00:24:21.130 you will get a bachelor's degree and you can 00:24:21.130 --> 00:24:23.849 get a second major in computer science. I said, 00:24:23.970 --> 00:24:25.829 no, I want another bachelor's degree. He said, 00:24:25.930 --> 00:24:27.630 well, then you have to take all the classes. 00:24:27.930 --> 00:24:30.670 But the good thing was, and that's where I'm 00:24:30.670 --> 00:24:35.410 going with that, is that I had taken some computer 00:24:35.410 --> 00:24:38.950 classes as elective and those were core classes. 00:24:39.769 --> 00:24:44.500 So when you do go... and you're taking, you know, 00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:49.599 your major is such -and -such, try to get your 00:24:49.599 --> 00:24:55.079 electives in your second, your alternative, your 00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:57.339 alternate major. Of course. You know? Yeah, yeah. 00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.799 So that way, if you have to switch, you won't 00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:03.640 have too much... To really worry about. Exactly. 00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:08.000 Because you would have already been far ahead. 00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:11.099 Okay. You know, ahead of the game. Okay, and 00:25:11.099 --> 00:25:13.380 then... I think that's pretty interesting just 00:25:13.380 --> 00:25:16.460 to have a backup plan. God forbid anything goes 00:25:16.460 --> 00:25:19.279 wrong. Always, always. In life, always have a 00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:22.339 backup plan. Okay, so question, my next question 00:25:22.339 --> 00:25:27.880 to you. If you could describe your future in 00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:31.180 three words as of today, just based off how we 00:25:31.180 --> 00:25:33.839 are living in today's society, how would you 00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:50.440 describe your future in three words? I'm curious 00:25:50.440 --> 00:25:57.319 yes a crazy place right now so I'm like how would 00:25:57.319 --> 00:26:00.519 anybody that's older than 27 describe their future 00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.059 as of today in three words I just want to know 00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:13.859 Three words, right? Three words, then you can 00:26:13.859 --> 00:26:26.980 describe it. Okay. Cautious and... You want to 00:26:26.980 --> 00:26:29.900 get over? I'm trying to find the word. I have 00:26:29.900 --> 00:26:33.299 to do that. I'm trying to find the word. Cautious 00:26:33.299 --> 00:26:41.519 and... You know, when you're not rushing, you... 00:26:41.339 --> 00:26:47.000 patient. Okay. Cautious and patient. Okay. Cautious 00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:49.880 and patient planner. Cautious and patient planner. 00:26:50.220 --> 00:26:51.839 Yeah. So cautious, patient planner. You have 00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:54.960 to be cautious. Okay. You have to be patient. 00:26:55.460 --> 00:26:59.440 Patience is a virtue. Yes. You know, you do not 00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.599 want to regret. The patience. That you rush into 00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:07.279 something. Yeah. You know, and especially when 00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:10.799 you're hot. You know, you do not want to make 00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:15.500 decisions, you know, when you're hot. You step 00:27:15.500 --> 00:27:21.339 back. Yes. You step back, and you know... You 00:27:21.339 --> 00:27:25.299 recessed. You recessed, you assess, you know, 00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:29.920 and then you said, okay. The thing is, remember, 00:27:31.539 --> 00:27:35.960 let me just pull there. You're too good, I love 00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:45.660 it. Was I supposed to go in there? No, you said 00:27:45.660 --> 00:27:48.299 perfect. This works right here. No, this is perfect 00:27:48.299 --> 00:27:51.539 right here. Okay. Personally, my three words 00:27:51.539 --> 00:27:57.759 would be doing my best. Doing my best for the 00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:00.099 next future. Excellent. Three words. Doing my 00:28:00.099 --> 00:28:05.319 best. Excellent. You know why? I'm on Facebook 00:28:05.319 --> 00:28:08.640 and this person has something, you know, about... 00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:11.339 You have to forgive yourself. Say it again. If 00:28:11.339 --> 00:28:15.720 you did something and you find out that, you 00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:19.480 know, it was the wrong thing, forgive yourself 00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:22.279 because knowledge is power. At the time when 00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:24.859 you made that decision, that is the knowledge 00:28:24.859 --> 00:28:27.339 that you had. Had you had the knowledge that 00:28:27.339 --> 00:28:30.950 you have now... then you would have made a different 00:28:30.950 --> 00:28:34.369 decision. So therefore you have to forgive yourself 00:28:34.369 --> 00:28:38.529 and learn from that. Know what you don't know. 00:28:39.009 --> 00:28:41.329 Be okay with learning, but know what you don't 00:28:41.329 --> 00:28:44.869 know and know that it's more to learn, it's more 00:28:44.869 --> 00:28:47.269 to come. And do what you're doing. Doing your 00:28:47.269 --> 00:28:51.789 best. Which is, you know, knowledge again, knowledge 00:28:51.789 --> 00:28:55.250 is power. You don't have all the knowledge. But 00:28:55.250 --> 00:28:58.869 if you ask question, You learn. You will add 00:28:58.869 --> 00:29:02.390 to your knowledge and it's gonna be better.
