What happens here

The interviewer meets the rest of the G&M Outdoor Services crew: Brock (16), Gage (who previously worked with Garrett), and Jameson (Garrett's younger brother, 18). Jameson is introduced as the key person who manages the labor on-site, allowing Garrett to focus on sales and estimating. Garrett emphasizes the importance of empowering and trusting employees, stating that he wouldn't be able to step away from the fieldwork without Jameson. He also stresses the need to properly train employees and treat them well (with fair pay, bonuses, and a positive work environment) to ensure retention and attract new talent.

Goal: Build a capable and loyal team through training, delegation, and fair treatment.
