Dan the man

My dad was a huge influence in my childhood and into adulthood when I started working for him. That was my first experience seeing two sides of one person, there was my father, who I went to church with every weekend until I was in my early twenties, never swore at us and didn’t take a lot of interest in what I was doing. Then there was my father the boss who cursed like a sailor would yell at you for screwing up and had to know what you were doing on the job. I did have a couple of other bosses that were very influential in my life and one I’m still very good friends with forty years later. People come in and out of our lives some just pass through others leave a permanent mark.
