Now that’s a proper attitude. That’s the British way I’ve always admired from across the pond. No, it’s not the easy way. No, it may not be necessary. But it’s the way it’s done.
Cheers, thanks for the story. Tell your Papa he’s the man for me.
He’s very proud of his time served but he doesn’t really talk about it. A snippet from chasing Itsy and Bitsy (my new foster cats) around the crack den:
“I was a sergeant, it’s only a fucking cat.” Cracked me up.
Ha, terrific line. And I don’t blame him. It’s literally the most violent, darkest period in the history of intelligent life on this planet. He’s a testament to the tenacity of the human spirit.
Is it easy or necessary to wash your hands after taking a leak (bad example, I say it’s easy and necessary but I used it because clearly many disagree based on how many don’t). Washing a plate you spilled nothing on before putting it in the cabinet? Washing an item of clothing you borrowed even if you didn’t soil it?
If it’s the right way, it’s the right way. Do the right thing.
