There are so many different things that happen. Last time when we talked on the podcast, I talked about my brother who's incarcerated and how we both went to the public school system. He didn't even graduate from high school and I did. It's hard to finger point where the issue happened, but I feel really honored and grateful to God for that.

I don't know if I would say that I have the best temperament because I have a temper. But I will say that I have remained true to who I am as a person. But the whole reason why I got involved in public service in the first place is because of violent crime in my community where people were dying, where our homicide rates were significant in the 90s. And it is...

just amazing to see us in a better place than we've ever been before. And I've always said it is always the will of the voters that I'm going to respect and be grateful that I had the opportunity to serve.

I think so a little bit, yeah. I didn't talk about it much, but when the mayor calls you and to not return the mayor's call, that was pretty offensive. Or to sit in a meeting with me and to look at my chief of staff and talk to him and not talk to me directly.

In the moment, I'm like, hi, I'm right here. Nice smile. And I'm the one who makes the decision. And then I move on from it. I didn't come from money. I come from the hood. I didn't have built in relationships with a lot of these people, but I did do what I could to try and reach out to people and develop those relationships and make sure that my door was always open.

So even if someone opposed me, which, you know, I had a member on the board of supervisors who was just the worst person to work with. That person's name was what again?

And so what I've always said is, look, I may not like you.
