I did it again. So someone's wrapping up their time and they're calling it. Good. I'm like, all right, you know, we wish you the best. We hope you find what you're looking for and they wrap things up. Come to find out they are an admin over a different Facebook group related to the business. They're the only admin. I'm a contributor, everyone else is a contributor. The moment the group was made, I should have been an admin day one. The other person should have been like a moderator or something, but I should have been admin and I never cared to look.

Speaker 1:

So just a quick word to the wise instantly have massive authoritative control over your assets right away, no matter what. Oritative control over your assets right away, no matter what. Even if you have 100% remotely run business, if someone is going haywire and shooting everything down and burning everything, shredding everything, you need to have a kill switch so that you can stop this and lock somebody out quick. Right now I don't have a kill switch. This person is pretty amicable. I don't think I'll have drama from it. But man alive, how. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Um gosh. Fortunately it's a super small group. It's just like for real. Come on, man. Well, if I didn't learn it, I'm gonna learn it now. But always have the super admin privileges over your own assets. You can't get locked out. You can't allow yourself to get locked out or have controls over your own assets. Super short, we're calling it good. That's where it, that's where we're going. Let's rock and roll.
