Jeff Bezos' girlfriend, Lauren Sanchez, shared on Instagram how the Amazon founder is still using a desk he built during the initial days of starting the company. As per Fox Business, Bezos turned a door into a table to save money shortly after setting up Amazon. After Sanchez shared the post, many people were in awe of Bezos and even appreciated his hard work.
"After all these years…When I walked in on him working this morning, I took this picture. I just love that he is still working from one of the first desks that have been around since the beginning (see next slide). This is where countless hours of hard work meet the heart of day one. Here’s to the endless pursuit of what’s possible," wrote Sanchez in her post. (Also Read: Jeff Bezos’ old video on banning PowerPoint at Amazon meetings goes viral)
