Yes I do! And then I wised up and worked the graveyard shift with Nick. I'm glad I was able to accomplish it without too much of the yelling, and I made sure and complimented my guys when they did good.

In all honesty, I tried to have fun with my guys. I remember when Derry was doing stalls in the Seminole, and on recovery he was trying so hard to retract the flaps (now we know there is a "trick" to it). I laughed so hard and called him a weakling. Eventually he got it and he was laughing as well. I could tell you stories!
