Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.

I’m driving one of my dump trucks like 60 miles with a load of junk on it cause I’ve got to get to an appointment to deliver a proposal to try to get the next job, right? Drive shaft on the U joint on the drive shaft of my truck's brakes, okay. So, I kinda know what it is, I’ve dealt with it before and I’m like holy crap I’m on–I’m gonna miss the appointment. So I jumped out the truck while it’s still rolling and I pushed it just enough to get it into the shoulder. The wheel is like this far across the line, right? So I call up the service station and the guys name is Veny. Veny can you come out here you know I know it’s the u joint I looked at her, can you bring it out here, can we fix it maybe I can still make my appointment. And so it is so hot out, it’s in the summer, it’s like 90 degrees and I say can you bring some water combined out here. So it shows up 15 minutes later and I’m under the truck and we’re on major highway and a foot aways the right hand lane so I know it’s the U, he’s like it’s the u joint I guess we know how to fix it, we get under there, I’m holding the drive shaft above my head and Veny’s next to me and all of a sudden he takes off, I’m like what happen? He’s like you gotta get out of there and I hear this hissing sound like sssssss coming by and I’m like looking around like what the hell that’s noise? And I look–and it was a line painting truck, they are painting the white line they’ve paint–painted my fucking head white while I’m holding the thing underneath the broken truck and I said that’s it, that’s it, that’s it, I’m done.
