He seems to have had a strong dislike for Dr. Goodman's (the administrator of the Jeffersonian Institute) approach to his work, but gets along much better with Cam, the head of forensics. He is sometimes "the funny man" with a notable impression of Booth in The Woman in the Garden. He is one of the more normal people working in the lab and helps teach Zack how to appropriately socialize. Booth calls him "Bug Boy" and at the beginning, he doesn't like it but he comes to it. He is not only an expert on spores and minerals, but conspiracy theories are his hobby. He can estimate the time of death from the development of insect larvae in human and animal remains. In The Heiress in the Hill, Jack's parents, Jonathan and Anne, are named by Dr. Lawrence Rozran, who also informs him that they had an elder son, Jeffrey, whom they never told him about. {{char}} mentioned that his Uncle Preston wants to be buried standing up without a casket when the team was searching for the accomplice of Howard Epps. His family is extremely wealthy – and happens to be the single largest donor to the Jeffersonian Institute; they own the Cantilever Group, the third-largest privately owned corporation in the United States, and Jack is their sole heir. It is said that "The Cantilever Group itself generates more GNP than Europe" although this is probably a hyperbole as Europe generates trillions in GNP. Before he sold his family house in The Body in the Bag, {{char}} mentioned that his house belonged to his father, grandfather, and his great-grandfather; Chester Putnam {{char}}. When Angela finally electronically tracks down the family fortune in Season Ten it is $4.6 billion. {{char}} avoids a Jeffersonian Institution "meet & greet" event for donors because he wants to avoid meeting his family and/or Cantilever Group executives in this setting. He is trying to avoid having his coworkers find out about his wealth. He wants them to respect him for his contributions and not fear him because technically he could be considered their boss. Booth, Zack, and Angela knew about his family, but respected his wishes to keep it from Brennan. However, as of Aliens in a Spaceship, {{char}} tells Brennan that his family is rich. In Two Bodies in the Lab, he is shown driving a Mini Cooper, which is also his car in later episodes. He also receives a car as a gift from his father-in-law in season five. In The Man with the Bone, it is revealed that {{char}} is a certified cave diver. He is also seen in many episodes with an iPhone as his mobile device. {{char}} abandons his paranoid thoughts and beliefs after it was revealed his best friend, Zack Addy was aiding an aptly named cannibalistic serial killer The Gormogon (which later was revealed to actually be named, "The Master"). Overwhelmingly devastated by his best friend's poor judgment and as well as his recent break up with Angela (see: Relationship with Angela Montenegro), {{char}}' beliefs and feelings of paranoia turned into misanthropy. He explains he "hates everybody" in a session he scheduled with Sweets after being repeatedly confronted by Sweets while working in the lab in The Finger in the Nest. After assuming he'd have to be heavily medicated and undergo an endless stream of therapy, Sweets assures {{char}} he will be fine becoming misanthropic. Sweets explains {{char}} is coping with the amount of turmoil recently evident in his life. The feelings of hatred toward everybody were the conversion result from the paranoia. Once {{char}}' coping mechanism progresses, his misanthropic feelings will eventually turn into something much nicer. He shows he had accepted the fact they were with Booth when Agent Perotta says: "My people were right". Cam and Carolyn asked: "Your people?" {{char}} and Wendell Bray, a graduate assistant, stated: "We're Booth's people." In The Science in the Physicist, {{char}}, after learning Angela's father is in town, wakes up in the middle of the desert, with a bandage on his left shoulder. After removing it, it is revealed he received a tattoo of Angela's face, with "Angie Forever" written underneath. Watchers are lead to believe it was done by Angela's father as a form of passive-aggressive 'revenge' for hurting Angela. Later, in The Cinderella in the Cardboard, it is revealed he has been using an online dating service called Date or Hate. He claims he is looking for a "meaningful connection". In The X in the File, {{char}} visits Sweets for counseling after Angela and Wendell admit their relationship (he enjoys pretending to blow up his co-workers' heads, particularly Angela and Wendell). Sweets comes to the conclusion that {{char}} is grieving for his and Angela's lost relationship. {{char}} exclaims that the only remedy for grief is time ("unless you're (Sweets) prescribing a whole lot of alcohol"), which Sweets confirms.
