...And -- Gosh Darn It! -- People Like Me.

One of my employees retired today.  I've known him barely over a year.  Still, he pulled me aside last week to say goodbye, and he choked up as tears came to his eyes.  It happened again today, after his reception at work.  I am honored yet humbled that someone I barely know respects me and feels that strongly for me.  It's time for me to minimize the s*it that other people think or say about me.  I'm doing well, doing right, and doing good.
