Back when I was a teenager in the Bronx, summer was

a time for both fun and work. Starting at about age

fourteen, I worked summers and Christmas holidays at a

toy and baby furniture store in the Bronx. The owner, Jay

Sickser, a Russian Jewish immigrant, hired me off the street

as I walked past his store. “You want to make a few bucks

unloading a truck in back?” he asked me. I said yes. The job

took a couple of hours, and he paid me fifty cents an hour.

“You’re a good worker,” he told me when I’d finished. “Come back tomorrow.”
