This is one of the more unusual pairings. Jeff has never been my favorite, but I do say Jojo brings out good things in him. I want to see how this plays out.
In many ways, Jeff reminds me of Peter Griffin from “Family Guy”.
On the plus side, he’s not a moron, but he has no ‘filter’.
If it’s in his head, it’s out of his mouth – unchanged.
It’s a level of honesty that most people have trouble handling on a first meeting. When we see Jeff in his phone cubicle at work, we get to see him try to ‘rein it in’, & it looks like it’s painful for him, like he’s lying about who he really is.
HA! Crude indeed, but Jeff is one of those people who manages to be crude without any ill intent. Sure, he shocks you a bit, but after that wears off you come to learn that’s just how he is and that he’s one of those rare people who always lives in the moment and is almost always positive and supportive as a friend. I’ve met a couple of people like Jeff in my life and, while we were never really best friends or anything, I knew that I could trust them and that counts for a lot.
I agree with Greg D on the JoJo front, she does appear to have a motivating influence on him and I think her encouragement is why he’s pursuing the culinary degree. Time will tell if he’s interested in a more serious relationship with JoJo, but if I had to guess, I think the fact that he -hasn’t- tried to sleep with her is an indication that he is interested, but hasn’t figured out if she is yet. While it’s easy to mistake his crudeness for a lack of respect, it’s clear from how supportive he is of his friends that he shows his respect more with his actions than his words, which is something I think JoJo has picked up on.
It was a bit strange to me, why it gives so dumb translations of duce 😀 But I like your typos more and more. ReamIIng was also confusing to me, but it was even with one i. But still, typos are your trademark, Eric. Keep em 😀

“Reaming meeting” – where the boss screams at everyone, or maybe just a few special someones, for not hitting quotas. :-\

I believe (or at least hope) that JoJo helps Jeff to get more civilized 😀 But still being peculiar.

I notice step 2 has been crossed out, was it abandoned or completed?
bohemiannightsthecomic
Hahah. I’ll assume since they are not raking in the money hand over fist that it was abandoned.
