My Boss
by Scott Horowitz on November 25, 2006

So, I've been at my new job for a little over 4 months now. I have to say I am very happy there, and one of the main reasons is my boss Jim.

The main thing I like about Jim is the fact that when I do something good or important, he'll say "Good Job" or "Thanks a lot". I don't think I was told that once at my last job.

The other thing is that he seems to reward me for good work. I had to go in for work on a Saturday. On top of overtime, he said go have a good time tonight and handed me a $100 Gift card to a nice steak house. I was also talking about how I want a big screen TV, and he said he'd buy it for me as my holiday bonus.

I guess it is just nice to be appreciated.


Anyways, in Marco Island Florida right now for Holidays. Spending time with my niece and nephew. God I love those kids

Roommate Problems

So, let's talk about my life. I moved to Jersey City, because a close friend (and my roommate from college) was going to be teaching here, and it would not be a bad commute for me to work. Teaching didn't work out for him, and now he's looking for ajob. Go »

Moving is not that bad

all moved into my new place. Getting cable was not too bad, and my couch comes next Friday. In other news, I get a letter from my rental agency, it seems they misquoted me on rent, they over stated by $69/month, so I got a check for $138 from them... Go »
