I was always taught the only thing you do before the first flight of the day, that you don't need to do subsequently, is check for water in the fuel tanks that may have accumulated over night.
I would call that statement into question. If you take on fuel, it is always a good idea to check the sumps/ low points, and that goes for jets too.

It helps avoid those unexpected moments of quiet contemplation.
