Do You Own It? - Part 1

Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO, just a little over a minute of investment for a lifetime of results.

I went to bartending school, I got a job at a club in Hoboken, and a month in, the owner sits me down, and he’s got a long, you know, a long printout, and there’s one line that’s highlighted, the name was Gary. Gary sits me down and says, “Hey, Carl, you know I just wanna review your job, how you’re doin’. Your colleagues seem to like you, you work hard, you’re blending well, you know some things I’d like to see you work on but, so far you’re off to a pretty good start. Right? And he said, “I brought this spreadsheet here ‘cause I wanna show you what we judge your performance on.” I said “Okay.” I assumed it was the yellow highlight and he said “You see that line where it says ‘liquor cost’? That’s your line, you own that.” He didn’t say you’re responsible for it, he didn’t say.. He said “You own that.” And it’s supposed to be between 19 and 21 percent. That’s what we’d like to see. If it’s under 19 percent we’re going to assume you’re stealing from the customer. If it’s over 21 percent we’re going to assume you’re stealing from us.”
