I know from experience that mixing friendship and business can burn you if your not careful. I helped a kid get jobs at 2 different companies I've worked for. Both times it ended up reflecting badly on me in some way. I learned from that. I knew from my own past experience in the military that friends is friends and work is work. I believe your friend hired you for 2 reasons, 1) you can seperate the two, and 2) you have the potential with experience to do the job well. A real friend won't set you up for failure, he'll set you up for success. Having said that, I'm glad things are working out for you and that the new position is not only a step up, but a challenge for you. It also reflects well upon you that your trying to educate yourself about the position and not relying soley on your friend. ThumbsUp02.gif
