okay
24:53
um so i used to charge just a 50 deposit which i think is typical in most situations for like contractors and other things but since i'm a small business for me like and at first it was fine but in this specific situation um i was doing this is probably like my third year into my business and it was the biggest project that I've had at the time yet.
25:18
So it was like 60 feet of railing going down, like a guardrail going down a stairway.
25:23
And, uh, so it was probably like a $12,000 job, which honestly I should have probably charged more than that.
25:32
But, uh, so I didn't charge enough to begin with, but again, it was one of those situations where I was just trying to get the work.
25:38
Yeah.
25:39
Um, And the project manager on this job, he just did not like me.
