biz town

Have you heard of Biz Town? According to Jared, it is the coolest place in the world. You can check it out http://jaeasttennessee.org/biz-town/. He went last week with his 5th grade class and other 5th grade classes from around town. Every one is assigned a job and you do that job for the day. You get a pay check and get to spend it around town-allowing others to do their jobs. Each business had to take a loan out at the beginning of the day and had to figure out ways to make money and pay it back by days end. Jared was the CFO of the radio station. He and his fellow CEO and CFO officers decided to play the part and wear suits.

As you know, Jared doesn't get overly excited about many things. He is a pretty even keel kind of guy. Few things send him into non-stop talking. Some past things that did this to him were...Dungeons and Dragons, superheroes, and chocolate lava cake. We can now add Biz Town to the list. It was right up Jared's alley-hard work, responsibility, and helping others. He talked about how busy he was, especially when the CEO went on break and he had to cover for him. "I would be doing like 6 things at once" he said with a smile. He even had to step in and do a TV commercial. At the end of the day he said his desk was covered in papers, but they were able to pay off their debt early enough that he went over to the Pilot gas station and helped them out.

I know that what ever Jared does with his life, it will be a success.
