Job Well Done

My best friend has been living in the states for a very long time. He was a good comedy bar performer here and had been earning good amount of money before he decided to try his luck in the U.S. He tried different jobs from bagger, to bus boy and other blue collar jobs that he haven’t even tried doing here.

After all his sacrifices and persistence, he finally lands a job that he really wants to do. He was accepted as a new member of a group that performs in different bars. Though it was difficult for him cause they constantly moves from one place to another, he finds his new job refreshing because he earns bigger and at the same time his doing what he loves best, to make people laugh. He said that it is much harder to move from one place to another (thanks to New York Movers for making it much easier) than to make people laugh. I knew he was telling the truth even before, he always finds ways to make a joke out of nothing. He is truly a born comedian.

The most important thing why I think my friend is so successful. His not just persistent, but he always put his feet on the ground. He never forgets to look back where he was from, see it has been 8 years since he left, and this was my seventh email from him in 2 weeks.
