    Linus is actually a really excellent boss. He puts himself on his employee's levels, doesn't micromanage them, and isn't a power trip. The bosses I have now are like him and makes it so much easier to work for them. They are actually motivating to do the work I do well and not slack off. Good job Linus. My hats off to you.

      @thegreatdisillusionist 6 лет назад +9

      Agreed! Been a long time follower that came in and out of the community and never actually knew the what and why Linus was longer with NCIX. It was very interesting to say the least! I personally always hated the NCIX website/shop lol Felt messy af. Unlike Newegg's. But nevertheless, did a lot of business with them. Anyway, that was very interesting Linus/Luke!

    Hey Linus & Luke, you should do a yearly review of what happened / who came and go throughout the year, what you plans (roughly) are. It will be an extremely interesting video to watch, this holiday season. I know it's late and so but the story you just did was a very nice and helpful content !

      Yeah, honestly I really liked hearing the story of how they started. I guess some of the hardcore techies only want cold dry tech videos, but I don't know, their faces are part of their brand, and getting to know the human aspect of Linus, Luke, and the rest of the team is really nice imo.

    My friend bought a PC from them like 3 weeks ago, but after being told that major delays in shipment in ALL of his parts, he had it refunded. Good thing he did.
    Ended up helping him build a custom one with Black Friday deals, saved like 300$, so turned out better in the end.

      I thought it was obvious since it also said provincial on the other ones

  • @OmegaSyx
    @OmegaSyx 7 лет назад +40

    Not sure if it was answered but the Supreme or Provincial refer to which level of court it was. Provincial courts handle disputes and litigation in minor offenses, the court of queens bench handles criminal offenses and the Supreme court handles larger cases including bankruptcy. This applies to Canada.

    • @Ra0s
      @Ra0s 7 лет назад +7

      Not quite accurate. Every province has a Provincial court system and a Superior court, the specific name for each varying by province. While the Superior court in a number of provinces is called the Court of Queen's Bench, in BC it's called the Supreme Court of BC; there is no "Court of Queen's Bench" in BC.

      Thumbs up for this!
      I skipped to the NCIX topic and was surprised by the amount of information and story i learned. Now i have even more respect for Linus and the channel itself for the respect and dignity he treated this delicate subject, talking openly about former employs, old friends and people who taught him through the years he spent there. He even spoke about ideology diferences and people he dislike with utmost respect.
      learned about business, professional relationships, saw a nice touchy bro fist moment and a peek into LMG story.
      This was awesome, Linus! you dare to question why or if we were still watching xD!

    @a88pockets 7 лет назад +31

    super interesting stuff at the end of the show about NCIX and Linus' involvement. I'd be curious to learn more about what Linus was like in high school and his early twenties. You know before he became the boss and a dad and all that. His story gave me hope that success is nowhere near necessitated by your degree or connections and that hard work and bringing an idea to fruition can really pay off.
    Like the comment to let Linus know that we want a video about his formative years.

    • @cdreid99999
      @cdreid99999 6 лет назад +3

      he is extraordinarily talented and intelligent. Intelligence is rare but not that rare.. a tenth of a percent of people have genius intellects (though imho maybe 10% of that use it). But he understands and connects to people and isnt self involved so he knows what people want to see , hear, know about. That second part is stunningly rare. He's a brilliant communicator.. that part is rarer. And he had quite a bit of luck.

  • @beoldziewski
    @beoldziewski 7 лет назад +13

    Linus, I really liked the part about your thoughts on why and how you moved from NCIX to being on your own. A lot people experience severe stupidity in management but I think are too afraid to jump into their own plans. You had an awesome idea, and when they didn't take it you followed a different path of your own. Taking into account how you affect those you work with is, I think, why you have a good team now.

    Linus, that is the most incredibly sincere and sympathetic way I have ever heard of anybody leaving a company.

DO NOT GET OLED complete shit for PC, I made that mistake with my last TV purchase. They are 8ms panels which is about the same as any 4k 28 inch monitor, some shit TN panel might be a bit faster but looks like garbage.

      "Supreme Bankruptcy" is just the result of illiterate airheads not being able to read "Supreme // Bankruptcy" as _"filing for bankruptcy (Supreme Court)"_ just as "Provincial // Small Claims" in the table cells directly above that *OBVIOUSLY* reads as _"filing for small claims (Provincial Court)"._

    Hey Linus! When I worked at london drugs warehouse, I was suggesting since our distribution was located in Richmond, I suggested doing same day shipping by hiring a little van, and do same day deliveries of pharmaceuticals and whatever but it fell upon deaf ears. I feel for you. I had friends who worked at NCIX and got treated like shit, so I feel bad for them.

    • @EnsignRedshirtRicky
      @EnsignRedshirtRicky 7 лет назад +3

      Unlikely. They have not actually had any stock for a long time. They have been collecting pre-orders and then doing drop-shipping directly from the second and third tier suppliers they were forced to work with. So they have nothing to actually sell off. Their used office stuff would be local only and auctioned off by the court, most likely.

      @skifree0 7 лет назад +1

      TheAstronomyDude, Yes, the Yonge store did do that. But that isn't Linus's idea was. His pitch was to completely move to these "small pickup locations". Even just a drive north you see the massive ncix store on Highway 7. That store was way to large and had tons of unused space. As long as upper management did not close those stores down then NCIX was doomed. The amount of money saved running 1 small store is nowhere near enough to cover the losses on their major store operating costs.
