MTA slide show remembers Schaefer
The Maryland Transit Administration has put on its web site an interesting slide show of former Gov. William Donald Schaefer's involvement with mass transit over the years.
However, it's doubtful that Schaefer would have pleased about the fact that the photos showed he spent a lot of time in the company of Harry R. Hughes, the former governor and transportation secretary, who appears in about one-third of the pictures.
There's no doubt the two men's careers were intertwined, but neither ever seemed to be very thrilled about that fact.
Comments
I only worked for Schaefer for four years in the Manpower Resources office on St. Paul Street. However what I learned in four years was sufficicent to drive my career for thirty years. Schaefer's rules were pretty simple,
1. Genuinely care about people.
2. Show up on time and look sharp.
3. Do enough research to know more
than is expected.
4. "Never let them see you sweat"
5. Always remember rule number 1.
