Al Bajaio
From Al Bajaio ...
As the wheel of life turns, today I am celebrating the life and legacy of one of my most valuable colleagues, and friend, Jay Chiat.You may all know me by sight, reputation, or simply by working with me at Chiat/Day. My name is Albert Bajaio, the owner of Bercat Construction Co. who built all the floors for Jay in New York City. I am now twenty five years young in this photo.
Jay and I had an interesting relationship - he respected what I could do for him and I respected his wit and his cutting edge creativity. Jay hated looking at any switch plates on the walls, don’t ask me why. Every time we inspected a floor, I would try to either hide the lighting switch with my back or I would position him so he could not see them. Jay had his way!! We finally designed the floor with a central switching system so I would not hear his sarcasm.
Jay had a big heart, he was a great philanthropist, he helped anyone who needed help.
Jay, I will always miss you.
