But can you tell us a story, Pat, from your childhood, something that happened to you that shaped the kind of leader you are today? The way I can answer that is talk about my dad a little bit. The retail automotive business is grueling, grueling hours. The dealership opens at 8:30 and it closes at 9. My dad was the type of guy that was there when the when the dealership opened and he was there when it closed. And I thought it was just normal for your dad to get home at 9:45, ten at night, and that's when you had dinner. Not only to my dad's work, really, really long hours. But he was also gone every single Saturday. And then you know what, 20 years into his tenure in into the automotive business, they start opening on Sundays. And somehow, some way, my dad always found a way to be present. If he had one off day a week, he didn't take it. And why didn't he take it? Because he would leave the dealership to come to my practice and coach my grade school games. And he was one of the best coaches I've ever had when he was coaching St. Vivian Grade School, 5th grade basketball. 1986. My dad did that with everything he got and he poured his heart and soul into into those boys that he was coaching and taught me that. That you fight and that you dive on the loose balls. You don't bend over to pick loose balls. You're always can be the toughest, hardest working player. It doesn't matter if the ball goes in. You might not be the tallest, you're not might be the biggest, you might not be the best shooter, but you can always, always hustle and outwork people.
