Do these maintenance workers have, like, an accountability, like something that they have to report what they actually do every single day?
Eva Trimble
1:53:50
Absolutely.
1:53:51
And we're monitoring that every on every single day.
1:53:53
So all maintenance workers, skilled trades, they work off of a handheld device.
1:53:57
They have clock in for their work orders.
1:53:59
We're actually able to monitor their labor in real time in order to see how you know, what their what their time is per work order.
Kristy Marmorato
1:54:08
Okay.
1:54:08
Because I think that needs to be investigated a little bit more only because of the fact that I I get the text messages to my phone.

They said they came and cleaned, and it's not the right location that they cleaned, or it's just an old picture of some sort.
