My 3 Bosses.... pay attention to how you treat others

Spencer Tatum, Donald Smith, Dennis Davis
As you walk along the path of your life, you might want to pay attention to how you treat others.  My three bosses are currently, Donald Smith (Athletic Director), Spencer Tatum (Principal) & Dennis Davis (Superintendent) .

In 1982 when I was a senior at Mercer County HS, the freshman tailback at Harrodsburg HS broke off a long run at the end of the game. That would be Donald. In 1987 I coached the quarterbacks at Mercer County HS and the freshman team. Since we didn't have many coaches, our manager went to the away freshman games with me.  It was fine because he was more responsible than me. That would be Spencer. And, my senior quarterback that season was Dennis.

I had no idea 30 plus years ago  that these guys would someday be my boss.  

An additional blessing is I have been fortunate to coach their sons!

Spencer, Donald, & Dennis have remained good friends of mine over all these years and I am really glad they are my bosses now.  It is also a great life lesson.... on a daily basis, do we treat others the way they deserve to be treated?  You might want to be careful. You may be talking to someone who will be your boss someday!
