Quality

Properly ideated, correctly implemented, and wisely performed Quality is the major profit center for any company wishing to succeed.
Kudos to the old denizens of Possum Hollow and the ones who lived on top of the hill.
"If it ain't broke don't fix" and "Don't reinvent the wheel"
Seriously, the old timers from all walks of life on old PA Route 80 or now PA 286, where I grew up, had the real skinny on the Quality Concept.
I carry those taught bits with me today as I successfully meander my way through the world I know as 3rd Party Inspection.
All of my peers, mentors, and associates from my youth constantly come back in fond memory reminding me of the basic concepts of life, integrity, grace, and values.
We made our deals on a handshake and honored them.
The heirs of this training know who they are and probably still mourn for that simple, but almost perfect way of dealing in the world.
You know who you are.
Who would have ever thought that a shy guy from The Hollow would have ever been privileged to travel the world and meet some of the people I have met.
It was the values taught, cherished, and honored back in the 1950's and 1960's.
In long overdue tribute, I recognize those mentors. May we fondly remember a bit of them every waking day.
The originals and mentors in My life and Yours may now all be gone, let us reinstate the tradition. I know that with the new technical school we are prepping back in the area of The Hollow will continue the concept of integrity.
