The understated luxury of Brunschwig & Fils' blue "Verrieres" fabric adds the color impact that one comes to expect of any room that Mario Buatta designed.
Interior Visions: Great American Designers and the Showcase House, 1988
The job I have, though I like it, is kind of a dead-end job. I see no opportunity for me to move up in the company where I work. I work at a place where everyone has been at their positions for decades. A few people have been around since the company was founded in the 1970s. I make between $22-$24 per hour at my job. In NYC, where I live, that can afford me a room in an apartment, and I'd have to have roommates to cover the cost of rent.
But, I need/like the money and stability. So I stay. Furthermore, it *is* a nice place to work. The atmosphere is quiet, and everyone gets along. No tension, no beef, no jealousy among employees. Everyone is highly intelligent, and focused. I've been thinking about having a 2nd job or some part-time thing, but that would require me to leave my aging mother alone, and she can't do lots of household duties anymore. I should be nearby.
