I was told a story...

"I worked for a catering company when I was younger. The company often did catering for events in many different banquette rooms at once. The rule was that you can eat the left overs (preferable untouched (unordered ones)) from your guests only. So sometimes you got fillet minion and other times you got meatloaf. Someone got meatloaf for a month straight and had enough and complained. The owner didn't tell us all we couldn't eat the food anymore, he fired the asshole who couldn't stop crying all the damn time."

When I heard that story I was watching my boss fire a coworker.

Now, why was he firing my coworker? Because I have worn VANS or Sketchers my entire life. And I was supposed to be wearing a shineable leather shoe. But my performance wasn't hindered and many guests asked for me by posing the question, "Can we get that guy that wears the different shoe?"

Sometimes you get a bad apple in the bunch, but it doesn't mean you can't bake a pie with the rest of them.

Keep on baking those delicious pies, Steve!
