Each week, Jerry Schappert and Bryan Baird recap some of the most interesting posts from the Pest Cemetery Facebook Group.

If you’re not a member, you can join here: PestCemetery.com

The first post discussed was by Ed Gregorich. Here’s what Ed posted:

“Just left Jeff Bagwell’s house.

What famous people have you met on your PC route?

Others for me:

Ray Childress

Tillman Fertitta and

Joel and Victoria Osteen”

While in Oakland, Bryan bumped into Clint Eastwood. Jerry mentioned that, although similar posts have appeared in the past, the answers continue to get more interesting as the pest cemetery membership grows.

 

Bryan then brought up the “raccoon in a tank” video. Jerry shared a few funny raccoon stories.

The hosts then covered a video posted by Andrew Flores Joaquin. Jerry pointed out how messy trucks equate to wasted product. Bryan agrees, organized/clean trucks are a necessity.

The last post discussed came from Michael Burns. Michael asked about hiring family members.

Both hosts have experience in this area. Nearly half of Jerry’s company is made up family, while Bryan recently employed his son on a full-time basis. The guys discussed the advantages and potential problems when working with family.

To close the episode, Jerry appreciated the vendors of the Pest Cemetery group. He encouraged the vendors to share more video

Until next week, take care!
