remember that old saying any job worth doing is worth doing well...i guess it has a lot of meanings but this one touches home...my friends son in seattle he is only 18...works part time at a gas station..yesterday he knew that people would need gas desperatly for carrs..generators etc...now all roads were blocked for 11 miles between his house and his job..no one else could get there to open the station...he walked that 11 miles in waist high water at times to open that station so the locals could get much needed fuel...im proud to know this young but wise man..this is what that doing a job well above and beyond is all about..it restores my faith in the new generation they are more in tune with reality at times then we are...everyone else is doing fine..most rivers have crested but not going down yet...well i just wanted to share this story of a young man who in his own way helped a whole town...have a great day ive got work to do..lol..yours mike
