I was enjoying some food and beverages with my best friend Leslie, when I noticed the cook from the kitchen smoking a cigarette outside. He had beautiful thick arms and calves covered in tattoos. The food he made was tasty and I noticed every time I went to the bathroom, he was working his ass off.
Before I left, I handed him a card through the kitchen window. I wrote that he made tasty food and has lovely tattoos. About an hour later, he sent me the following email. "You handed me a card through the kitchen window. It was very nice and very pretty. Thanx. I just got back from Cambodia and tonight was my first shift. The gesture was awesome seeing as it was the first from a stranger since my return home and I'd been slammed all night. Rad."
Folks, that right there is what it's all about!
And, just as a side note, I'm not only looking for people who make me tasty treats and have attractive physical qualities ;) I'm also looking for deeper connections. The two I passed out so far, just happen to have made me something delicious and employed things that I love: facial hair and tattoos. Cheers to an awesome St. Patrick's Day!
Having worked in busy restaurants myself I can imagine how cool that was to get after a long night!
