That was the beginning of a close friendship with Jay and
his family that continued through college and for the next
fifty years, long after Jay had died. I worked part-time at the
store a few hours a day during the summer and long hours
during the Christmas season. I worked hard, a habit I got from
my Jamaican immigrant parents. Every morning they left
early for the garment district in Manhattan, and they came
home late at night. All my relatives were hard workers. They
came out of that common immigrant experience of arriving
with nothing, expecting that the new life ahead of them would
not be easy. Jamaicans had a joke: “That lazy brute, him only
have two jobs.”
After I’d worked at Sickser’s for a couple of years, Jay grew
concerned that I was getting too close to the store and the
family. One day he took me aside. “Collie,” he told me with a
serious look, “I want you should get an education and do well.
You’re too good to just be a schlepper. The store will go to the
family. You don’t have a future here.” I never thought I did, but
I always treasured him for caring enough about me to say so.
