Direct Quote by Brian Flores
“I think everyone likes direct. They might not like it in a specific moment, but... I'm always gonna push 'em to do more. That's just me. I try to be truthful and honest and transparent, and if they don't like it, then so be it. And that's OK. I think they respect that and they know where I stand.”
