I had a similar conversation as an OCdt with a MCpl while in basic, when I asked him (after the course was completed) "how bad our rooms really were": "Your room will never be perfect, but that was never the point. If you remove every speck of dust in your room, I'll pull the vents covers up and pull dust from in there - It'll never be perfect and I'll make sure of it. Your future in the CAF depends not on you being perfect, but on always striving to learn from your mistakes and striving for perfection. Which is why I will always find dirt."
It's been a while and that conversation is obviously not verbatim - but it was I took from it.
The little things in life matter - if you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right.
