I'll make this short. I've been blessed. I started as a laborer in 1961 and am now a VP of a very,very big national construction firm.
I love the construction worker and learn from them every opportunity. The construction worker wishes every day he could talk to a big boss and help things out. The worker can get to me. I visit the jobs three days a week and take great pride in eating lunch with them out of my lunch pail. They laugh and called me a puss- for eating out of a cup with a spoon and then they do the same. They bust my ass and I greatly enjoy it. They are my guys. I love them and they care and respect me. Today at lunch- Willie said " Boss I hear you like cigars- I smoke the best, said Willie". Willie pulled a cigar out of a drug store pack- placed it in his mouth to give it a good wet, and handed it to me- " saying- now Boss try this- it is as good as one gets." I could feel my balls tightening up, but I said " shit Willie- that sounds good- let me try it." End of story- it was one of the most enjoyable 1/2 hour smokes in my like. Only because they laughed at me- and they got it back in return. Life is good is one makes it simple. God- I love the working man who takes pride in his daily craft. Willie is proud because he got off on the big boss-me. I'm very privilidged because for 30 minutes Willie let me be a part of his life.
My stories will never get better than this.
