Like, if you don't know what the current financial state is, And, Okay, you certainly maybe those are very interested into it, right? So, i mean i i find i don't know how you could feel about them at this point but i find that's pretty outrageous. I did too. Not father ever agreement and not pay you right?

Yeah, and And i felt like i'm worried about paying mr. Man is not to work. Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah. Uh, also You know, when they gave me a severance pay at that, like That was treated just like another employee in a. Up to a 80 80 hours. Severance pay.

Like any other employee that i was a shareholder, right?

But mr. Mathis I talk to him, probably. Five times already since this happened and You always says that what they did was not right, but he didn't. Yeah. But who cares the pizza? But it doesn't make it right. Like that's worth it. I think. Yeah. Yeah. He would be in an equity and not do anything to fix it.

I mean, then was going to have to see what he is returned, right? I agree. Now, i think it's important to like Do something about it now. Have already though and before that are even for, if they had paid in They're annotated with bigger, understand positive. So i mean if you're comfortable sending that email, i think a good plan for us to be receive to send the email and then follow us with a And one or three weeks.

And, Uh, get it last week. So this, i i would ask for the miss payroll. And, Ask for the letter, the value. My shares. Is that right? Yeah, and they need to purchase the server purchase this year. So you need, you know, the notification of the value of the shares, we need them.

The first stuff. In one of my conversations with Ed Mathis, i did ask him. Because i have the 401k loan. That i had to pay off. After i was, i was let go at our conversation with him on his phone and i said, I i do have a alone and now with no payroll, i have no way of paying it.

Would it be possible for you to buy my shares? Uh, for the amount of the loan that i have, And, At the time, he said that he was going to talk to the other partners somehow, You can go about. Buying my shares. And then, Yes, and then he also said that Angela might be interested in.

Buying my shares.

I mean, i think that they have their variety care shares. I think the question is just like that, what? Friends.

Um, i i think we need to pick automatic in my opinion from like a more important. Hopefully. And let's say, if i look at their own agreement with them things and they're not trying to fix it. We're gonna have to. Do. That's a great place, but

And so, i'm not sure. You know, why they approach disagreement? They're lack of deeply like i don't know because other partners attending to give up. And doing what they couldn't pay, maybe, i don't know. Yeah, i don't know while i was there. There were One partner that left. They did the letter right away and she got paid and then another partner.

Left which they refuse to pay him. So it went on and on, he left in 2019, but they finally come to an agreement and actually one of the conversations i had with Mr. Mathis after I was the in october that tiger james was looking to get paid. And i think they starting to pay him and mr.

Math has said that to me he said that they didn't want to pay him. And then the other partner that left was Scott. And according to the shareholder agreement, when you leave, depending on the value of the firm, the year, when before the year prior to year leaving, and that's the value of it of your shares with 2022.

There was, no, there was no Profit. And but they are willing to negotiate with Scott because he is now a client and because i'm not there anymore. I don't know what. That negotiation is. Yeah, but i mean i know you're going to go shooting with you, there's just ignoring it i like oh okay now, right, right, and you know, better than they had to give you that notification, right.

And I don't know. I mean nothing. What can you tell from that? For 15500 instances? 5500, and we think about, like, Their profitability or at those anything. Not really good because it only says i mean all unless you plan participants that i don't know, this would be planted or third because it's worse and And i thought i was a planet were, you know, because it looks access.

I think that's actually just for the summer of kids but i think it's for the just before we came from

There's a Thank you that now. The other technically, i'm still a shareholder. If we don't come, To an agreement before the end of the year. Should i be Receiving their financial statements. Yeah, i think so. I mean, it just starts with their violating agreement at all. Right? You know, not to provide people notification.

Media. You're still in push. You're still at your older. You should still be inside of those to all of the perceptions of Agreement. So maybe that's another thing to follow us onto this created again. That's true. I can ask or copy of the The third quarter. Financial state. That was a great idea, too, because it just shows on why they need to deal with this with you, right, right?

Like hey, you have said all these things. It's so important shareholder and your son and then education from the current book.

Okay. Think this is a The meeting. Yeah.

Is really messed up and i just really hope that i'm They made this, right? And it seems like, you know, You're going to have to make it uncomfortable for them to do that, and if you can do that without a lawyer or not lose the month, of course, you get back to the board speed.

Great. But as you can you know, then we're willing to have to produce some straightforward points here.

They think you could. I've cover noted. Oh, cobra, notice? No, i didn't get.

It wasn't on the health insurance plan that she had this whole and vision insurance but it's so semi would And things though. But, I think i'd like you really wanted to buy the cobra. I would have been say Letting air for now and i'm going to see my friend that is like a potential plane.

You might pursue later.

All right. Well, i'm sorry to talk to you. It's hard enough solution to go a little bit. I'm having to spend the next few months trying to get what road and kind of continue people. So i'm so sorry for how they treated you and Standard think that what it would like when you were there, too.

So, hopefully, nothing else this week. You want to figure out better? Thank you. Um yes. The other thing was mr. Mathis, when i would have conversations with him, he would Sometimes make a remark like, You know. Their one side lean. They're not going to keep your round. Uh, Virus, because he was like, your big is Applicator.

Yes. I mean he he mentored me to To run the business. Because in his mind, he said that None of them have a business. Um, Business talent. The lack of better words. And he wanted me to run the business part of the firm. And every now and then he would say, Once i leave, they're going to they're gonna want to put someone else in your position.

And, you know, as soon as this happened. And i was actually surprised to hear from Angelo and she emailed me that don't come to the office, we're going to have a zoom meeting. And i and i just asked, why can't i come to the office and She said that we will discuss that.

And that was that was it? Well again, i'm really sorry, thank you this way, but i hope that kind of difficult to, you know, get Which we need out of it because it's not making any sense but they would hold on to these shared for you and she's seeing them kind of learning other people out.

You know, there's only You know, it may mean that it will take you hiring order. Continue to get it from them but i like to see just really try first. And, you know, even if you do need to hire us like Video understand our for the disease instead of the letter first.

And before deciding, whether you need to financially, go ahead and pursue playing the court. And, you know, all these preparing but it does. That way, that it costs you less. But at this unfortunate situation, i'm really sorry. I wish i could find out how they're going to treat. Uh, Scott Evans when You know, as far as it shares, Like i said, when i was there, they were talking about.

Um, because if we go by how the shareholders agreement is written, That his shares have no value but because his client now, Um, they were talking about Offering him. Some value, but Now that i'm no longer there, i have. No way of knowing having a treatment. And i wish there's other value.

That's all you need to do is You know, trying to work with them and you know, have some land matures Of treating you. Well, you know, and i don't really feel like doing something to do that notification, you don't even know, right, right.

All right. Wow, like i said, i'm really sorry to get you this way. 40 years. You can't make any progress on your own. So if you want to go ahead and send an email message speaker so we can Like right next to unless they've already got on page view, which would be great, okay?
