    1. "I just think that when you take a job, you have this vision and you think of all the reasons things can go right. And so when it came out yesterday, it was just a real moment. It's something that you put in all this time, and you see the girls work, your staff work, and so, to see it come up, I know that we're not done yet, but it was a moment of like, you did it. Like, you did it, they did it." - Jordan Clark, Guest
