My dad Liam once made me re-caulk the entire bathroom tub at 6 a.m. because I'd rushed it the night before — "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing so you don't have to do it twice," he said, smoking a cigarette on the toilet lid while I scraped silicone off tile. He wasn't being mean, just showing me what pride in work actually looks like when nobody's watching. Still hear his voice in my head every time I catch myself cutting corners.
