Show Notes

"I’ll clean toilets, flip pizzas, serve tables—whatever it takes to feed my family. That’s manhood."

In this episode, I share a recent conversation that reminded me of a powerful truth:

No job is ever beneath me.

I talk about:

This isn’t about career pride—it’s about provider pride.
I’d rather work a “humble” job than have my ego keep my family broke.

If this hit home:

Episode Transcript

[00:00:00] Hey, it's Bertrand. And today I want to talk about how I will. I had a conversation with a friend at work and I was telling him, you know, I will go back and serve tables. I'll go back and be a security guard. I will go back and if I have to work a job that people consider below them, I'll go be a cook at McDonald's. I don't mind, I don't mind even going to clean toilets again. [00:00:23] And the reason being is because I'll never say that is not for me, me anymore. I used to tell myself that I'm never going to be a server again. I'm never going to clean toilets again. I'm never going to go out there and clean, right? And just make. And just making it seem as if certain jobs are below me, right? That now because I work remotely or because I got a job making, you know, X amount six figures here or, you know, or make it seven figures in my business or whatever it is, right? Because you could lose that seven figure business, you could lose that remote, remote six figure job which I have, which I've happened to me both, right? Excuse me, I've lost a business that makes me quite a lot of money, not seven figures. And I've lost a job too. That's six figures. And that hit too, right? And understand that remote too as well. So remote as well. Excuse me. So what I'm telling you is that no job is beneath you, especially as a, as a, as a father and as a husband and try to make sure I provide for my family. If I have to go work doordash, if I have to go work driving Lyft, if I have to go work at the pizza shop or go back to working even at Domino's, I'll go flip pizzas and be happy doing it. Because I'm able to provide for my family. No job is ever below me. If I have to go clean houses, I would definitely go do that because cleaning houses actually can equal six figure salary really quick, right? You get paid almost like a hundred dollars an hour to go clean those. [00:01:45] But all I'm saying is no job should ever be below you, right? I don't care how educated you are, I don't care where you are in life. But if you have to roll up your sleeves and go clean toilets, go do that if you have to. No job should ever be below you, no matter where you are in life.
