    The good thingsHe was easy going person, friendly and good mentor. He's a good listener, would go extra mile to help others. He regularly let me know that am appreciated and not just at the times of their yearly reviews. A good boss is one that realizes that when emergencies come up in our personal lives that they should be more important than the job. Takes us for lunch to create a positive work atmosphere.
    The challengesWish didn't resign due to boredom of routine work.
