Quit Your Day Job with Steve and Jill
Jack Butala: "Quit Your Day Job with Steve and Jill." Jill, I thought you always said "Wait, wait, wait, don't quit your day job yet." What do you mean, "Quit your day job"?
Jill DeWit: Oh, my goodness, have I gone off the deep end now?
Jack Butala: This is what happened. We're having lunch, and Jill came up with this brain child called "Quit Your Day Job with Steve and Jill." We decided to do a quick podcast about it, and see what you think.
Jill DeWit: OK, so here's what's happening. More and more people are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, and it's getting closer and closer. I actually had a person call me today, and the reason he reached out to me today, and it was so great, was because he was in a car accident this morning. It was a fender bender. Everybody's OK, but he was on his way to the office. It's an hour commute, both directions, and he's like, "Something has got to change."
Jack Butala: What's his first name? I had a conversation with somebody just like this too, but no car accident.
Jill DeWit: Ben.
Jack Butala: OK. Mine's Patrick. You go first.
Jill DeWit: All right, so my guy Ben, who ... We've been talking off and on since I want to say June or July. I can't remember. Anyway, he's been thinking about making some changes in his life, and he's HR in Dallas, and works for a big company. Anyway, he's got this hour commute every day, and literally got in a fender bender. Rear-ended some people, didn't stand a chance this morning. It was one of those [crosstalk 00:01:28]
Jack Butala: Is he a member now?
Jill DeWit: He is right now.
Jack Butala: OK, good.
Jill DeWit: Yeah, he is today. That was it.
Jack Butala: My guy is too.
Jill DeWit: Yeah. Ben reached out to me today and said, "All right, I got to make some changes. You and I have been talking about this off and on." Now it's good, it's forcing ... It's growing into our own new project, which is setting people up to quit their day job. Our way of doing it just happens to be through land slash however, there are many different ways that you could do this.
Jack Butala: What do you think? What else could be a good way? Knitting sweaters?
Jill DeWit: You know, yes.
Jack Butala: Really?
Jill DeWit: Sure, why not? OK, come on. Do you not watch "Shark Tank"?
Jack Butala: Oh, yeah. Sure. That's a great example.
Jill DeWit: Hello. Come on. We've all seen "Shark Tank."
Jack Butala: I'm going to take notes in my own podcast right now.
Jill DeWit: Who would've thought the lady that came up with CitiKitty ... You know what that is? It's like a ...
Jack Butala: What the hell is CitiKitty?
Jill DeWit: Oh, my gosh. [Erin 00:02:33] in our office bought this, everyone, this is hilarious. CitiKitty happens to be a "Shark Tank" child that went bananas, and now she's so popular she's been showing up on "Shark Tank" with other products. She figured it out. She's an awesome entrepreneur. This just happens to be the first thing that got her going.
CitiKitty happens to be a potty-training device so you can teach your cat to pee in the toilet and do everything in the toilet. I'm not kidding.
Jack Butala: What?
Jill DeWit: I'm not kidding. It's CitiKitty. It's basically something where it's like, somehow you put litter in the toilet, and eventually you take it away and the cat knows to p...
