“Funny story, but I did my first lawn care job when I was 16. I had a Science teacher that always had it out for me. That guy gave me more swats than I could count. So, after a big rain, I decided to turn some donuts in his yard. I left some pretty good size ruts and it felt good! Well, somebody saw me and told my dad so he made me go landscape his yard before the cops found out. I did such a good job that my teacher decided to hire me to maintain his grass for the next few years.
After school, I joined the military and quickly developed a special bond with grass—mostly from spending so much time in it doing pushups, low crawls, and even cutting it with scissors for talking too much. Later, I went to Drill Sergeant School, where I yelled at countless trees (they only ever stood still and grew). As a Drill Sergeant, I wanted soldiers to share my love for grass—so I made them eat it, dip it, clean it, talk to it, use it as earplugs, and even give it CPR, because chest compressions are really just modified pushups.” – Curtis Kinsey, CEO
