I once attended a party precinct meeting leading to a presidential primary in Texas. The chair was a young man in his early 20’s. He was obviously very full of himself and considered himself a political expert.

About half way through the meeting, he started to by-pass some of the time-consuming procedural steps.

Suddenly, someone yelled from the back of the room, “Jist do it right!”. Turning around, we see a grizzled old white-haired man with a five day growth of beard, wearing dirt-stained coveralls.

The startled young man said, “Well…alright.” and led the group through the correct steps.

Two weeks later, a court ordered a group of other precincts to re-meet to correct their procedural shortcuts.”

Moral: It is usually better and faster to “Jist do it right” the first time
