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

The Flight from hell
So, here's the story from my flight back from England. I flew back from Gatwick airport, which was a blessing in disguise because Heathrow was a nightmare. The people I was traveling with all had earlier flights than me, and since we had to check out of the hotel, I just went to the airport early. 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 »Karaoke
So, last night a few friends and I got together and went to a Karaoke Bar on Christmas Eve (what else will Jews do). We're sitting down enjoying a few beers, then my friend goes. "I think Eli Manning just walked in and sat next to you". Go »Roommate Solution
So, the roomie didn't take the job, so we're stuck together for the near future.. Go »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 »
