Working in a kitchen, by yourself, on a busy Sunday, doing brunch, full house.
Hundreds of orders later a breathe of air outside.
On your way through the restaurant, stopped by an older couple and thanked for delicious food which domino effect makes everyone else at other tables perk up and say thankyou.
Makes one long 12 hour Sunday…worth it.

For an English exam this year I had to write an essay on “the power of thank you”. It was a stupid essay, but did make me realize how much a simple thank you can do. So thanks, Chef, for the thank you to the people who said thank you to you… it reminds us what an effect simple kindness can have.
Bet you felt bad about spitting in the scrambled eggs after that….LOL JK!!!
