00:13I'm Linda Sinkowitz. I'm the founder and CEO of Fight Voter Fraud. We are a 501c4 non-profit
00:22organization that basically only wants one vote for one legal voter. We actually have that
00:29trademarked. And to have clean voter rolls, clean elections. That's what we strive for.
00:40My first job was when I was eight years old. My father was a semi-pro bowler and he was
00:48on the
00:48circuit. So my brother and I would go and keep score. And I did that from when I was eight
00:53years
00:53old to when I was 12 years old. And I used to make extra money by helping the bowlers correct
01:02their swing and where they should stand. So I actually really enjoyed that. If I had to say
01:10my favorite job in my life, that was it. Because they would bring me soda. They would bring me
01:17potato chips. They would bring me candy. And I'd get tipped at the end, as well as paid
01:23by the tournament to actually keep score.
01:31I fired them. Quite honestly, they were doing a little more things that were not exactly
01:39what you should be doing in our work environment. But normally I let people explain
01:47why they feel certain ways and why they're doing certain things. But if somebody does something
01:53nefarious, no, that doesn't cut it.
02:01Always do something for a complete stranger every day. What that can be is like someone who's
02:08pulling out of a parking space, give them the room. You go through a toll booth, pay for the guy
02:14behind you. You go into a store, a convenience store. Either the person in front of you or the
02:20person behind you, you pay for their meals. And just tell them to pass it on to somebody else,
02:26to a complete stranger. And I'll tell you, you get lots and lots of smiles from people.
02:32I actually have had people start crying after I paid for their groceries in the store.
02:37But do something for complete strangers.
02:45Honesty. Always honesty with people. I'm not one who gets into gossip and talking about other
02:52people. And if I ask you, does this look nice on me? Please be honest. Tell me the truth.
03:00Which unfortunately sometimes is what I do. One time when I was working in one of the stores that I
03:07was
03:07doing some sunglasses with, a woman actually put on a pair of sunglasses and asked me how
03:13she looked. And she had a smile on her face. And I told her, you look like a bug.
03:20I said, those sunglasses are not for you. Let me help you find a pair that looks much better.
