Yeah.

And, and so, um, I call up Rich and say, "Hey, Rich," You know, I had accepted a job with this company and I said, "You know, can you advance me the first month's worth of salary?" And he said, "No." He says, "But I, what I will do is you can start tomorrow." So I accepted and, uh, the moving truck showed up and moved us to New Jersey.

Um, it was important for me to graduate.

He told me at the time, he says, "Don't worry about graduating.

You, you, you've got, you got everything you need, um, and, uh, you'll do, you'll do well with it." And I said, "I have to graduate.

I need, I n- I [laughs] need to graduate." And, um, so, um, I called up the, uh, professors that I had at that time and, um, uh, or actually called the dean.

The dean t- said, "Hey," um, I, what I asked her was, "Is there any way that I can get at least a passing grade on the classes even though I haven't taken the final?" She says, "Well, you're gonna have to talk to all the professors." Talked to professors and they all said, "You were doing well enough.

Yeah.
