  Speaker 2: doing a house cleaning in here, you should try to
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: know there and they walk by them and say hi.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Think of it as someone's mother, someone's sister, someone aunt,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: someone something. Because it is someone something, right, So let's
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: just make sure we respect them that way. They're not

  Speaker 1: They're part of the team, he says.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: And yeah, what'd y'all think of that clip?
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: I loved it?
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I loved it. Well, it makes me anytime I
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: see a coach talk like my dad talked, it does
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: something to my heart because this was my father. Everything
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: he said is that the same things my father would say.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Well, of course your father played football.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, actually he did, so our dad. He was very
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: intentional with relationships. But later in life he became a
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: businessman and one of the things he'd love to do
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: is he'd do business lunches. And he said, you can
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: learn so much about a person how they treat a waiter.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: And so he loved going to and he said, if
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I went to a restaurant and somebody I was working
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: with treated the waiter badly or kind of talked down
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: to them, even with the tone, I didn't want to
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: do anything with them because it was kind of like
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: a test for me. And it's become the same way
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: for me. I feel I judge people based on how
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: they treat people that are doing a service.
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: I've been in that position.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: I've been a flight attend I've been a waitress, I've
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: been a host, I've been in a service position. So
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: I know what it's like when someone does kind of
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: talk down to you. And I would never ever do
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: that to anyone else, but I judge you if you
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: do talk down to somebody that's serving you.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: In some way.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: And I've always like the waiter waitress comes up and says,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: you know, how you doing. I'm like, I'm great, how
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: are you. It's funny to see them react like nobody
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: else in the restaurant has even asked them that that day,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, that's just a little yeah, just being kind.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: I remember, well, first of all, knowing somebody's name and
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: caring enough to remember that says so very much. I
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: remember as a little girl, and the principle I think
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: I must have been in the second grade, third grade
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: and mister no, fourth grade, mister Sanders, walked down the
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: hall and you know, you're like, there's a principal. You're
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: walking back to your class. He said, Well, Hello, miss Sphinx,
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: how are you today? I remember feeling like I was
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: the scene, just yes, like like a rock star, like
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: he remembered me, and I made it. It's a life mission,
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: especially with children, especially with children, to remember their names.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: It matters to them so much.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're absolutely right. In our high school, my wife
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: and I went to high school at when we were sophomores,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: there were nine hundred people in our class, and so
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you had, you know, more than three thousand, by three
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: thousand and five hundred students in the entire school. And
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I swear our principal knew every single kid's name by sight.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: It was amazing and it meant something.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: There's a little girl, Harper. Coach Foules is on the
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: tech team. He's the pitching coach, and Harper was cheering.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: She comes over to sit by me. I love those kids, siblings,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: and she was cheering. She was, Oh, there's Hudson Rowan.
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: He's one of the new pictures.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: She said.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: He says to my name every time he sees me.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: She said, Hudson Rowan and Slade, my son Slade. Every
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: time they see me, they'll say hey, Harper. And she said,
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: I just love that. And I thought, and I told Slade,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: and he went, oh, that's cool, I said, Slade, it is.
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: It's a gift you're giving somebody to remember them, especially
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: when they're younger than you. When they're not you're superior,
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: but there's somebody that's like younger than you, or maybe
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: in the office, someone that's below you on the totem
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: pole to care enough. That's why when we hear about
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: these movie stars, they say, oh, my gosh.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: You know, I was a waitress. So and so came
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: in and she was so mean. I couldn't live it.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: But so and so came in and they not only
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: gave me one hundred percent tip, but they were like,
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: you know, you need to pursue this if you really
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: want to do acting or whatever it was. Then you
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: love them for it. You know, you're like, oh, this
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: is somebody I can get behind. You love what they
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: stand for just by being kind.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: It's such a little thing.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's such a little thing. But if you think
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: about it, we all want to be seen, we all
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: want to see is there's something special about it? There's
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: something important and when a stranger can recognize that in you,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: even if it's just an action that they're doing out
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: of just normal. It is everything.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: And I'll say this, Trump is great about it, Like
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: you have. All of these people who are serving in
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: the White House right time after time after time they
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: talk about how not only does he know their names,
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: but he'll remember to ask about how's your son, how's
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: he doing in baseball? That's true.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: No one really.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: Reports on this because that gives the narrative that he's
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: such a good person.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: They don't want them to see that, but they say.
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: Everybody from the bottom to the top who have worked
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: with him for decades have said that's who he really is.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: He knows you, knows, your family cares.
