THIMK

Due to the intersection of last night's query about suicide and today's word, I guess it's Think About Dad Day.

He had a one-(not-quite-)word sign on his desk at work, I presume to remind him to pay attention to detail. It said 'THIMK," and - I presume - served as a reminder to avoid obvious mistakes by looking back over your work.  He had a reputation around the workplace for developing circuits that functioned as they were intended to the first time, without any redesign or rebuild required.  I'm sure it was this discipline of double-checking himself all the time that resulted in his success there.
