Our family June 2012
Rachel Dotson wrote this article, Work Lessons From Dad, in honor of Father’s Day, and she asked people from all walks of life to tell her the #1 lesson Dad taught them about work. The responses are as varied as they are inspiring and insightful. Here is mine:
“My dad taught me so much by example. He has always been kind to those around him and has employees who have worked with him for 25-30 years. He has always taken time to help those in need and really share all the gifts that he has been given. He used to say, ‘That could have been us. We could have been born over there instead of over here. I have to help.’
Lisa in High School
But his words as I start each new job are always, ‘Play nice with the other kids.’ I love you, dad!”
