Summary
I work hard at everything I do, no matter who I do it for. I'm always the first one to clock in and the last one to clock out because that's just how I grew up. I take great pride in my work and always give it my all. In 13 years at Goodguys, I haven't missed a show. I have a streak of most shows on the road.
