406 and I agree—great people in our section.

Summer of 1993, summer before my freshman year. Got a picture with Shaq outside of the field house after some dude stole the hood ornament off his Cadillac.

Loved that camp experience.

Planning on heading home after the game Saturday and will hit 190 to get to I49. I have a couple of recommendations for a good meal as we get out of town...

1. Soileau’s Dinner Club
2. Steamboat Warehouse
3. Mama's Fried Chicken

Thoughts on those and anyone have something they recommend over these three? Thanks!

For now we say we want to keep this rolling and no real exit plan. We have had PE ask if we are interested in exploring a purchase or merger with a different kind of staffing firm and we have been in such a build, build, build phase, we haven’t entertained the conversation.

Big things that slow us down—
State filings in all the different states.
Month end close outs and accurate P&L review.
Devoting a balanced amount of time for future growth and strategic planning, sales and recruiting planning and development, and diversification.

We’ve got a seven man sales team, five recruiters, an office manager/accounting admin, and ops director who runs payroll and workers comp (for now), and a recruiting manager, myself CEO and my partner, COO.

I’ve been in the business for 15 years. Last company I was with, I was a franchisee of sorts and we had a very forward thinking CFO. He understood employee law, workers comp, finance, taxes… he was kind of like a general
Manager. I don’t know if we need that position as much as we need a controller.

We currently have 700 employees working for us across the country.

We ran at $15-17 million for several years and then jumped to $25 million in 2025. This year just exploded providing manpower for data centers. I’ve acted as ceo/cfo along with what I’d call two staff accountants. We average about 42 day turns on invoice to collections so money has rolled in well. We run a very lean business…

Canadian buddy of mine is on bourbon street with another buddy in August about 20 years ago. Eating like crazy. Drinking like crazy. Shites himself on bourbon street. So drunk, he gives no cares.

Tries to clean himself up, rolls on through the day with shitty boxers.

Gets back to his room and his buddy has shacked up with a girl and they are both passed out.

By rhis time my Canadian buddy is sober enough to realize what he did so he takes his shite stained boxers and puts them right on top of the girls’ clothes.

She wakes up the next morning and thinks the guy she hooked up with shite himself before they hooked up.

To prove he didn’t, he put the boxers on to show they wouldn’t come close to fitting him.

Some great laughs from that story.

Coming into town Friday through Sunday. Foods we like:
Poboys--
Great breakfast--
Great gumbo--
Fried seafood platters--
Great fish
Fried Chicken

Give me your best--non touristy, but not crazy high-end.

We are in town to gamble, eat, and drink. Land Friday morning at 8:30 and don't fly home until Sunday night at 9:30 p.m.

One case of coors light longnecks in four hours. One beer, every 10 minutes, for four hours.

First two hours were easy. Second two hours I’d run out of time and have chug to catch up.

In an eight hour day, probably way more, but that four hour stretch was impressive, imo.

I'd personally use these guys:

Correct me if I’m wrong on this but deductions should include:

1. Management fee
2. Mortgage interest
3. Supplies for the property
4. Yard and cleaning fees
5. My work and travel to the property to do work

What am I missing and is the above correct?

I went to fourth grade with Gary Redus’ daughter. CSB, I know.
