5 Reasons Why I Feel Jealous of My Friend – IT Guy from Nix Solutions
The major goal of each adult is to get on well in life. I seem to cope with the task. I have started a sole proprietorship and work for myself full time.

That is why he always keeps tight to his promises. He has 4-5- close friends among Nix Solutions’ staff. He acquainted me with these nice guys, and we used to have a good time together. Besides, he has about 10 colleges that may easily join us at countryside BBQ. In general, the office environment is rather pleasant and suggest spending with colleges either leisure or work time. No need to speak about money. Ukrainian IT-specialists are referred to those professional category that would not come cheap and can raise capital for a year (by the way, he works in the company 6 years).
My working day is not scheduled. Sometimes I start at 11 a.m. and finish at 16 p.m. But I also have “shift” beginning at 7 a.m. and keeping to continue at 20 p.m. My salary fully depends on my productivity and the number o units sold without taking office environment in account. My “cry babies”, I mean clients, partners, and customers are not always nice. You know, rich man's joke is always funny!
