EP309: How You Do One Thing Is How You Do Everything W/ Tyson and Slayer

Today's episode is a heated discussion between the Eric and his two guests, Slayer and Tyson, about the importance of attention to detail and maintaining high standards in one's work. Eric, clearly frustrated by a crooked registration sticker on his expensive truck, argues that "how you do one thing is how you do everything," emphasizing that even small imperfections reflect a lack of pride and care. Tyson and Slayer share their own experiences with poor workmanship in their respective fields, highlighting the potential for minor oversights to lead to significant problems or even danger. The conversation evolves into a broader discussion about leadership, training employees, and fostering a culture of excellence by inspecting what you expect and providing both positive and constructive feedback.
