(peaceful music)

2
00:00:06,190 --> 00:00:09,030
- My name is Joe Renteria.

3
00:00:09,030 --> 00:00:11,930
I served 20 years in United States Navy

4
00:00:11,930 --> 00:00:14,303
and retried as a chief
photographer's mate.

5
00:00:15,380 --> 00:00:17,963
As you work up to be a
chief that you start with,

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:20,750
there's certain obligations that you have

7
00:00:20,750 --> 00:00:22,223
to perform yourself.

8
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,413
Certain steps, certain duties.

9
00:00:28,130 --> 00:00:33,130
The most important one is dependability.

10
00:00:33,430 --> 00:00:35,330
That's the main thing.

11
00:00:35,330 --> 00:00:36,963
When you become a chief,

12
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,907
that's the first thing
that you would think of,

13
00:00:40,907 --> 00:00:42,547
"That man is qualified."

14
00:00:45,300 --> 00:00:48,910
You have to maintain a good relationship

15
00:00:48,910 --> 00:00:50,113
with your personnel.

16
00:00:51,460 --> 00:00:56,460
Always be honest,
trustworthy, and dependable.

17
00:00:57,710 --> 00:01:00,820
You're looked upon that you have

18
00:01:00,820 --> 00:01:02,210
a lot of wisdom and so forth.

19
00:01:02,210 --> 00:01:06,750
You have to be able to
exercise some authority

20
00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:11,750
to be able to lead and the only
way that you can do that is

21
00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:16,910
to realize that you're just
not giving them orders.

22
00:01:17,370 --> 00:01:19,960
They have to depend on you not only

23
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:22,200
because you're the leader but
that you're gonna lead them

24
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,963
to whatever objective that
you're gonna be going to.

25
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:31,820
A chief should do, that be as somebody,

26
00:01:31,820 --> 00:01:33,803
a teacher, a leader.

27
00:01:37,010 --> 00:01:42,010
I don't care what chief and
what specialty he is in,

28
00:01:42,330 --> 00:01:46,400
you'll find that if he sees
that you're interested enough

29
00:01:47,260 --> 00:01:51,010
to pay attention to what
you're due to learn,

30
00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:53,690
he's gonna do it, he's gonna help you

31
00:01:53,690 --> 00:01:57,505
to try to learn your
job and do a good job.

32
00:01:57,505 --> 00:02:00,255
