And obviously it sounds like, Melissa, you do your own hiring. Anson: We have to do it, yeah, cause, you know, it destroys everything, you know, teams, companies.

And one of the things that really interested me the most about you, Anson, after reading about you and talking to Lindsay Henson here at Eagle Hill, and one of the phrases that she associates most with you and the team culture, was refuse to lose. Lindsay said refuse to lose really stays with her today, and not just as a memory, but really and truly as her mindset and how she shows up in all aspects of her life.
