Aroddy Morejon has quite the memory. He also makes quite the first impression.
As a 16-year-old working in a Hialeah, Fla., hardware store, Morejon just happened to mix the paint for Mario Amador, who was painting a door for his mother. On the spot, Amador offered Morejon a job with Miami-based A&B Pipe and Supply. At that moment, the stars weren’t aligned. Morejon couldn’t commit to travel the long distance to A&B headquarters on his bike.
