Yeah, a bit of a lead in, I guess, into why you started it.
5:08
Of course.

So a few years ago, I was working in the trucking industry, and it was a very rigorous job.
5:15
And it took so much of my time in my life and time away from friends and family.
5:21
So eventually, I made the decision to wind it back a little bit.
5:25
And while I was reimagining myself and figuring out what direction I wanted to go in, I got a bit of a job at Coles and sort of hung out there for a bit.

And I think to build on the back of what Luke said, we often have, you might not care, you might not care whether it's burial cremation or the music or if it's in a church or if it's in a park or whatever, but reflect that because then you don't have your wife or your brothers or your your parents or whoever's you know left behind to think to themselves well i think this is what luke would have liked i'm pretty sure but if you've got that as you would have experienced been written or spoken verbalized or whatever then it's it's a lay down was there here's what we're going to do um off you go do you see that often ben or is it more the minority where it is planned out like that

I could relate to your dad.
33:21
I guess part of it sort of drew into the social side of things as well.
33:26
Macca's started as a fast food chain, but in Australia, I'm not sure what it's like in other countries, but Australia, it really started to lean on the McCafe side of things.
33:36
And so that became a really good social spot.
33:38
She wasn't, I guess, she wasn't a coffee stomp like I am.
