LJI Week 14: Barn Raising
Who lost the extra front door key?
Are we going with Sysco or U.S. Foods?
Polish glasses. Polish silverware. Polish every flat surface in the kitchen thatt hasn't even been touched. Yet.
"Hey! We got aprons! And...they're....red."
"At least it won't show the blood of the noobs."
The air conditioning has already stopped working. The ice machine leaks. Towels get employed. A box fan is purchased. Shift beers get upped to two a day to escape the heat.
"Do you have power to sign a check? Or can you forge a signatue?"
Learn to play cheerfully clueless about why the kitchen radio seems to only play 80s hits on your shift.
Where is that damned key again?
It's a labor of love. Or madness. Or just a desperate search for a place to belong. A home. Or at least a place that won't leave you scrambling for a job in six months.
"Who the FUCK decided to put quinoa on a BAR menu!?!?!? We need a staff meeting!"
Big smiles, folks. We open on Friday. The 13th. I have my chefs knife in my right hand and a left shoulder going numb propping this up. As long as I am standing, it will, too.
