He has prided himself on his career. 1 I guess I had taken his work for granted.

4 He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business.Day by day, I watched him build it, On evening I asked if he needed help.“Only if it doesn’t affect school,” he said.I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months.
