Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you are a thin 14-year-old. That was me in 1940—the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City’s Pennsylvania Railway Station.
After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I’d like to join them, think, "Everyone else is doing it." When I got home that night, I told my father what I wanted to do. "You give an honest day’s work," he said, looking at me straight in my eyes. "They are paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that." I followed my father’s advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
Of all my jobs I’ve had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that struck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with the people who steals. If one of my players was caught stealing, he’d be gone.
Whether you are on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can’t trust one another, there’s going to be trouble.

C、Don’t follow others to overcharge the passengers.
