I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
Of all the jobs I've had,it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me.Now l teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions.Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience.If one person steals,it destroys trust and hurts everyone.I can put up with many things,but not with people who steal.lf one of my Players were caught stealing,he'd be gone.
