Recently I have been added to the FoxPro field staff . It is a title I am quite proud of but not for the prestige and the hot chicks that come with it . I am proud of it because of the people that I have been able to meet and associate with it . I have always considered myself a pretty good judge of character and the first time I had a conversation with Mike Dillon I knew right away he was a man with what many are lacking these days . Moral fiber .
He called me one night right after I had been booted off of a forum for doing nothing other than stating why I thought another call was better than his . he called an apologized for it even though he had nothing to do with me being escorted off of my puter chair . We then started a conversation on why I thought this certain caller was better than his . It was a great interaction and he never once was defensive or rude even one time . I could tell he was listening and sometimes listening or lack of is what interferes with someone or something improving . To many times these days everything becomes a urinating match and then before long this guys mouthing this guy and back and forth . then were calling each other out and looking to meet up behind the woodshed to settle it out . Its easy to and boy how I know because you would be hard pressed to find someone out there with a worse temper than I . Age and children have seemed to help me become a more understanding person and father . How can I expect my children and friends to carry themselves with class if I myself cant even perform it . A true test was presented to me not long ago . A neighbor had broke into my truck and stole my rifles and wallet . He was caught a few days later and my rifles recovered . A week later after he had bonded out he approached me as I sat on my porch . Now for a guy who at one time fought somewhere every Friday and Saturday night just because he liked to most thought for sure we would have went to fist city . He came to apologize though so I asked him for a spare smoke and welcomed him to sit next to me . We had a good talk about him getting his life back together and the road that was ahead of him if he did not change his ways . For me this was a medal of a achievement for me because I knew I was changing for the better . Im better sure god winked at me as the fellar walked back to his home . These days there are 10 fold more callers and calls out on the market and just because I like this one and you like that one . It doesn't mean we have to resort to rudeness or hostilities . Give an opinion with class and respond with class . You will sleep better because of it . So far everyone I have been involved with in the FoxPro family has handled themselves with class . A man once told me surround yourself with good people and good things will happen . Its contagious . Carry on . I know its hard to bite your lip and I got scar tissue built up heavily but we can do it . smile Let er buck boys and keep on keeping on .
