This is a good one.

I also wrote about language today, but I picked on the word "tomorrow." This is a really neat coincidence, and it was fun to read.

Nice! Language is fun and that is a pretty cool coincidence.

I thought right away about "86" and "on the fly." We used to say "CORNER!" really loud, too.

"Hot shit behind you!" was very common as well.

When I first heard "on the fly" I thought that meant it was low priority lol! About 5 minutes later I found out how wrong I was.

Damn, that's a rough lesson.

I think hot stoves and knives taught me some tough lessons! Maybe we could do a collab piece where we air our kitchen injury grievances.

Loved this. I was FOH management for a long time and it was crazyville some nights but nothing compared to the kitchen. I was always in awe of the quality of the food that came out despite of the conditions. Kudos to all kitchen staff.
