 Well, the other deputy mayors report directly to me. I had no idea I was going to be in public service. A friend of mine suggested that I join this little agency that had just come off the ground until I get a real job. That was 28 years ago. The most important thing is to reach the objective. I don't care about the noise, I don't care about people complaining, I don't care about any of that. I care about getting from point A to point B as quickly and efficiently as you possibly can. Working at SCA, and then the Department of Design and Construction, what we did was work really, really hard on a blueprint for change and to move things forward. And now my job here is to work on that exact same thing for all the agencies. What you aspired to be in the days when I was growing up was a wife and a mother. Those are the things that we were brought up believing were part of our job and part of our life. I come from a large Italian family. Astoria was such a terrific place to grow up. Everybody knew one another. My mother was a single parent, divorced when I was three months old. She had to work full time. Watching her manage and juggle all of those different pieces and still be such a loving, warm person kind of influenced me a lot. There's no rules anymore. Nobody says you must be married. All three of my girls, they have a different life now. So just do what it is that you feel good about. I have a daughter who is a single parent and she works in government. There is such a reward in government. Certainly you're not making a lot of money, that's for dawn sure. But there's something to be said about knowing you've impacted a lot of people. I think the greatest leadership lesson I've learned is that nobody's perfect. A person may be an expert in one area and not know how to turn on the computer. So once you accept that and you surround yourself with all kinds of different people with different skill sets and you get to know them and you are loyal to them, they will be loyal to you and you will get the very best from them.
