Shawn, you lighten up whatever you do to make others feel important and encouraged. Best boss ever! As always be safe and praying for you both and your family and Lathan 🙏🙏🙏
Nice to see a young guy in your business on RU-vid shows up for work every day and works hard. Hope some day if he stays with you might run a second truck.
I'm glad to see someone that swaps blades as often as you do. My buddy mows full time all week and changes/sharpens blades MAYBE 3 times a year if that. And never changes oil or anything. That's just insane and makes me mad honestly.
That is foolish! I wouldn't wanna buy a used machine from them. It amazes, and kinda frustrates, me when some folks run things like that and get away without any major repercussions. I had a neighbour who never changed the oil in his vehicles. From brand new, all he would do is change the oil filter and add oil and he never had problems from it. He bought vehicles new, drove 'em into the ground (at least 15 yrs), and parked them out back when he was done with 'em (he's a farmer so he has the room). He's older than me and has been on that property since the early 1960s, so there are a couple of rows of pickup trucks and sedans hidden behind some trees behind his barn. Crazy right?
Great video! Spencer you a great boss. You are amazing with TQ, Lathan in communication. The equipment you provide is outstanding. I love how you and Lathan work together in keeping your machines top notch. You, TQ and Lathan make an awesome team!!! Have a great summer.
Love that Latham enjoys having you as a boss.. and I love that you were listening to NF off video... Just one more thing that shows you are quality people lol 😂
You guys are very lucky that you found lathan he is a very nice young man not too many young men like that are respectful of their elders and I like that me I'm 72 years old and when I see a young man as old as he is just out of high school and everything that gives a very big plus to him and you guys hiring him keep up the good work lathan
That truss holds hundreds of pounds adding a piece of wood to the side of a truss does very little to strengthen a truss.if you add a board or another chunk of strut directly above your existing track you will distribute the weight of several truss allowing you to pick thousands of lbs instead a few hundred..think of how many tons your roof will hold of snow.(one cubic ft equals 20 lbs….10ftx10ft roof 12 inches deep has 2000 lbs or one ton sitting on it)
so....Lathan is very happy and content with you and that's awesome. I'm curious: what part of the job does he prefer...the yard work or the machine maintenance? (he seems a natural for the machine maintenance)
I don't mind either, I have fun doing both. But to be honest I've done maintenance and all that with machinery a Lil more than I've used a mower 🤣, But I've also done alot of physical labor all my life. So In all, I have fun doing either never bothered me
Love it!! All they care about is how fast I work... Oh Lathan, I care how fast you work... awesome man. He is a humble man, will do great!! Encouraging for sure!!
Too many employers care ZERO about how employees are feeling or doing! Employees need to feel the same sense of mission and accomplishment as the person who started or owns the business, and then the teamwork is fun and productive, and working together is enjoyable.
hey, for liability issues....torque blades to recommended specs as on service manual by toro.....most important......when on video, when your employee gets deposed, he will....the truth will come out. thank you for video.
NE Nebraska, farm country....gas is at 4.35 per gallon. I sure enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from you...Thanks! Also great to see you work with your wife and at least not show any arguing or disagreements even though we all know it's not always peaches and cream, lol! Wonderful example to the young people for sure.
Missed you today TQ.....hope all is fine with you and the boys done a great job. Love you all, have a great night and tomorrow will be a better day !!!
I like what you do for Latham both you and TQ are really supportive and are encouraging, which is nice to see. I've just taken early retirement, which was due to a new boss, did the job for 30years and loved it. Had to go as they were totally crap, had no idea what they were doing, had questionable qualifications which I think they bought on line and on top of that, if that wasn't bad enough they were a total bully. While they have been there the team has lost 5 members which is all due to this person.
Oh Lathan when you flipped the cone and it stood right up you should have done the walk off like a Mic Drop LOL Excellent employee.loves to work and gets right at it when it's time to. Tells the boss he really likes working for him. Tells the boss he's making enough money. And always shows up to work. His parents did great raising him he's very respectful and kind.what more can you ask for . Your doing great Lathan I wish all young adults and kids were like you. They wouldn't be out hating on our great country like the do now days. College is way over rated when they come out acting like clowns that no nothing but what their brainwashed with . Keep up the good work and it will pay off. Good work ethics is something to be proud of Great job Sean
Lol - you struck up some fear in that young man that he was going to lose his job. I hope you can see that, his face showed it all. And he is incredibly mild, you have a real diamond in the rough. You are going to have an influence on him for a lifetime beyond just being a "boss". Thumbs up 👍👍👍
don't be sad! I love my job. thank you for everything you have done for me, And everything overall. I'm more than happy to bust my butt for you and keep kicking butt for you sir and madam!
@@rumblechick73 Having gone through having 2 young men who are now in there 30's, you'd only say that if you could afford it. Do you have any idea how much a teenage boy eats! 🤣🤣
I'm in the same boat as Latham with all my former bosses, in fact one was so self-centered that even though he knew I was a single mom with no reliable help after school he kept me on the clock while he called it a day at 4pm all week and I was left to work until midnight most nights. That grueling work life contributed to me losing custody of my son. It didn't help that all the employers in my area had a hiring freeze at the time and I refused to go back to working for Walmart. Now I work at a KFC and I love my boss, she's kind, considerate, understanding and empathetic but she is also going to call a employee out when they need to be but even then she does it respectfully.
Great video! I'm glad for you guys that Latham is enjoying his boss. From what I can see you are a great boss. I noticed TQ was absent today, I hope she is well. 👍👌👏🥰
I have also been trading with her, The profits are secured and over a 90% return on investment directly sent to your wallet. I made up to $79,000 in 2months trading with her
At least he talks !! The last guy never said anything?? And you guys paid his truck payment and acted like he deserved it! This guy seems cool and willing to learn the ropes . He seems like he could run guys and be independent . Keep him around !!
#team Lathen wouldn’t it be wonderful if he continued to work with you guys and eventually he can have his own crew for summer and winter future goals.
Lathan seems to be good young man. It's good to see a good owner as well. Lots of liars, immoral and unfair supervisors out there today. Enjoy your videos guys and gal.
You have a future team leader with Latham, he knows his stuff, but like every industry you never stop learning Best wishes Spencer Lawn Care, enjoying all your video's.
Good job! Glad to see the maintenance, it is always very interesting. On your chickens, we only clip one wing and that makes them unable to fly. It makes them off balance. Great video, have a great night.
Good video, you kind of put Lathan in a tight spot asking him on camera if he likes the job. He will tell you in private and I know both you and TQ will handle that. I enjoy your videos and hope to reach your subscriber level one day
This was a great video. I've enjoyed watching Lathan learn, and I know you both enjoy teaching him. It's sad, in that most employers really don't take interest in individual employees. You're fortunate enough to be small enough to have the time to do things right. You'll have a long term dedicated, caring employee in Lathan, if you keep it up.
Wow! Great Job Shawn! Great Job laython! It is GREAT to see some hard workers!! I think laython is really liking it!! I mean who wouldn’t with those two workers!!😂
Lathan seems very genuine and hard working. I really love his humbleness. He will give you what you give him. Treat your employees right they should treat you the same and will produce good work in return. Keep up the great work brother
Always remember... "The worker is more important than the work". I worked under a man for 15 years who had this as his motto, and it applied to the hundreds of employees. When I moved on and became a manager for a fortune 500 company, I too, said and followed through with this philosophy. You can't go wrong.
I’m not hating or anything so please don’t think that I like how y’all work and everything y’all have a awesome family as well, I’m a family man and have a solo company
So glad Latham likes his job but certainly not surprised!! You guys aren't just good employers but you are awesome role models!! ❤️ ❤️ Happy for you all!! 🤗❤️
Yah :) everyone keeps forgetting in the crossfire of mad profits that if you give respect to your workers they will respect the company back. its 1000% the best way to motivate someone to do and to be their absolute best. Boss is always a better person when they can get down from their superior high horse to just talk and be friendly to the worker. (i have yet to find that workplace and/or boss). Here it mostly feels like talking to the police and not to a leader when working somewhere and meeting the boss.
I just subscribed to you I like a new employee about he's pretty good but when his teeth are taken care of why don't you just take them out blindfold him to a nice place like a steak dinner and everything as appreciation of his hard work.
Around my lunch time everyday I watch your new vids. Been doing it for years. I can't get enough of your content! I'll be going off on my own in a year with my lawncare and snow removal buisness. Thankyou for the daily motivation. God bless.
I own my own lawn care business I don't cut grass in or it's raining or it's wet but it drives out come on guys That's not good for your lawn mowers or people's yards
I honestly think Latham will grow your lawn care business to new heights. Keep the him satisfied and extremely happy and he will not leave your business. He will train future employees the high expectations you have in place. God bless and may you retire a happy man.
Nathan is learning the ropes well, whatever happened to the other guy you were looking for? I thought you wanted two teams working to take off the work load.
The best boss I had only paid a little over minimum wage, it was fair for the job, and really couldn't afford more than what he paid me. I enjoyed working there so I stayed a little longer than I probably should've but when you're treated like family ( family that's liked ) it was difficult to leave. Never even came close to that type of boss again in my whole life. Last guy I worked for was real rough on me, didn't care I only got 3 hours of sleep or that I'd worked 22 days in a row. Yeah it was me I was working for myself!
Once again sir love your video you do awesome work & I love watching your video. Nathan is a good young man I like the way he wants to learn & I feel you & TQ are a great job at teaching him! I must have missed where TQ is. Did you give her the day off? 😉 Take care & see you all next time ✌ You are a good boss !!❤👋
That was great that you and Lathan were able to talk and make sure everything was going good for him. Communication is the best, and hope that if ever Lathan has a problem/concern he feels comfortable coming to you and/or TQ. He really appreciates you as a boss. He seems to have great work ethic, and the type of employees you and TQ are will only help him grow more.. I keep enjoying all your videos.
Good interaction with your employee and his feedback was a plus. As a employer, your employee will work their best as long as they feel appreciated....
