Things I learned from Phil . . . .

1. It doesn’t matter what you’re doing , always produce, complete the assignments that you are given it may require work after hours but that is the price of success.
2. Never be too proud to ask for help.
3. Remember it doesn’t matter what you do at work or what your title is - you are yourself at home.
4. Some of the most historic deals in technology don’t happen in offices but at hole in the wall restaurants.
5. Wienerschnitzel is open till midnight!
6. Remember it doesn’t matter who you are or who your boss is - what ever mom says is law
7. Have fun tonight, but remember if you do something stupid I will bail you out of jail. We will have a talk and you don’t want to have that talk.
8. One of the most productive ways to get one intern to finish a project, have him share a room with and intern who snores… Really loud.
9. You can never have too many cables - who knows when old tech can come back in style
10. Just because you get a video games doesn’t mean you will have any time to play it
11. Do your best
