I’ve always liked our offices, and I never thought the view would change.
When I started working for my new boss, I was glad that my friend and I both had offices with great views.
On the 15th floor, where my friend and I are, we can see most of the city. Our boss said that view was there to motivate us, and he was right. But one day, when my friend and I woke up, we were sad to hear that the building next door was falling down. People might wonder why that was bad news. Well, I’ll tell you why. They were going to build a big skyscraper there, so we’d have to say goodbye to our beautiful view of the city soon. My friend and I watched the current building slowly go up, and we said goodbye to our view soon after. When I was the only one in the office one day, I saw that they were working on the roof. Next door, a big commercial roofing project was going on, and roofing companies were hard at work up there. I had never seen a commercial roofing crew at work before, and it was a cool thing to see. In the summer before, I had a residential roofing company come to my house to fix the roof. I have shingles on my roof, and I needed them to fix my shingles. This happened after my friend and I saw a big storm with strong winds pass through the area. It was the only way to keep from having to replace the roof. But it was so much better to see a commercial roof project.
