Document Summary
During the summer of my freshman year in college, i worked for a small private landscaping company planting shrubs, seeding new lawns, cutting grass, and tending flower gardens. The company was located in my hometown of seaview, n. j. , which is a rural community on the coast about 80 miles from philadelphia. The company was owned and run by joe brewster, a 45-year- old man who had lived in seaview all his life. He had started the company some years ago and not only handled the paperwork (payroll, bills, estimates, and so on), but also worked along with the crew six days a week. The crew consisted of five guys ranging in age from 17 to 20 years. Seaview and had gone to the regional high school, which was located in seaview. Only two of us were attending college, but all had been hired personally by joe following a short, informal interview.
