Who are the actual owners or operators of the company itself? Yeah, like, for instance, as an example, they bought a company back in four years ago that had three operators. It was two brothers and a sister and one brother passed. And the sister was really never acclimated to the business in the first place. So when I was speaking to Jeff and John, they were a little nervous. They said, no, it's perfect. You almost got a rudderless company. The people running it are the divisional managers. They are waiting for an operator to come along and take this company and show them how to get to the next level. So when you see something like that, you see good bench strength, you see good clientele, you see good culture. But the operators themselves, the owners aren't kind of in it. Not. It could be tremendous upside, because when you blend the culture and really get everybody on board, that's a sweet thing.
