There are two kinds of people who work in restaurants... 

  1. People who are passionate, driving, and eager to do the work because they aspire to build a career in hospitality
  2. Those for whom these jobs are just a means to an end

And let's be absolutely clear on this... the majority of our employees fall into the second category. Let's stop pretending that we used to have this huge pool of people who were dying to bus tables and scrub dishes. Not true. Never was. So if we're going to get better people, let me tell you a secret... we're not going to FIND them, we have to MAKE them. 

Today's episode is a rant about the state of our employment practices.
