It is the fate of the Property Manager to toil at the lower employments of life; to be rather driven by the fear of evil than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage or punished by neglect, where success would have been without applause and diligence without reward. While others may aspire to praise, the Property Manager can only hope to escape reproach, and even this negative recompense has yet been granted to very few.

As Property Managers, we all have learned primarily
through our mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions
rather than by our exposure to fountains of wisdom and
knowledge.
