War is hell. Stop the killing everyone.

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

Look at everyone’s reaction here.

<5% tried to make it to an exit.

<1% addressed the threat.

Everyone else was frozen in place or hit the deck instantly.

@Morbidful Horrifying footage

@TElliott125 It’s your fault bro.

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

Masonry & concrete contractor here.

Mid-7 fig gross revenue

Approx 23 employees, ~15 installers.

We shoot for minimum 40% gross profit on our estimates.

If we hit end of year net profit above 12-18% we would be stoked.

[BowTiedBroke @BowTiedBroke]

Can anyone who is in a specific trade biz chime in on the profit margins for your trade? I’m guessing if starting own biz after a few yrs, margins for most trades are 30%+. Larger the size, less margin. If chiming in, state trade, number of employees (you only or you +X number)

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

@CBCNews Yeah... and?

It's accurate

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

Earn loyalty from those around you.

Give loyalty to those who show you they deserve it.

Recognize disloyalty & remove snakes from your life.

Always be an asset ✅ Don’t be a liability.

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

On Loyalty:

Loyalty is a double-edged sword 🗡 I have many stories about the dangers of misplaced loyalty and the rewards of well-placed trust in the right people.

This is what I have learned from it…

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

Loyalty can only be earned through

admirable deeds,

professional conduct,

following through on your words & actions,

and mutual respect.

@telfordk No wonder our country went to shit

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

@TheRealKeean @LeslynLewis How about “retrimand”

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

@BowTiedBroke You should have married a woman who allows you to be who you are.

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

@EdKrassen He’s not wrong

[Joe Pike @LifeOfDefiance]

It takes time and commitment to be able to do this.

Especially as a chick because women are naturally weak.

[AJAC @AJA_Cortes]

This is seriously impressive. Most men cant do this, let alone women

Legitimate 1% physical fitness ability, she trains serious.
