This is a great idea and I am honored to be asked on the first day.

I would definitely say that my father had the most influence on the way I approach work. He has always been a hard working man and I can remember one of the things he used to say all the time, "If you did it right the first time you wouldn't have to do it again". This always resonated heavy with me to do the best job I can, even if it's not perfect as long as you gave 100% and did the best you can.
