Because I think it does when I, 9 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 2: you know, when I see young kids coming to work 10 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 2: here and what they're learning to be on time, not 11 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 2: because they'll get in trouble, but because the curtain goes 12 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: up at a certain time and you know you have 13 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: to be ready. It teaches you to be kind to 14 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 2: people you probably don't want to be kind to because 15 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: they're not being kind to you. It teaches you to 16 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: you know, the collaboration that if you don't hoover the carpet, 17 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: then somebody will sit there and not leave a tip 18 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: to the way to you know, there's all this kind 19 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: of thing that goes on in a restaurant, and I 20 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: think it does prepare you.

I? 21 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 3: So do I mean I think you know, when people say, oh, 22 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 3: my son, my daughter can't get a job, I was saying, no, 23 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: you can go make coffees in a predamante because they 24 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 3: won't be making much money. You know, they might have 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: a law degree or whatever, a degree, but they'll be 26 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 3: learning so much valuable things, so many valuable things, just 27 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 3: about how to read something. I say, walk up towards 28 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 3: the counter, you learn. How do I approach this person? 29 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 3: Am I very friendly? Am I standoffish? Am I concerned 30 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 3: about them? All those tiny little things that are so 31 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: valuable in any job as you go go through life. 32 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I used to notice a thing in in restaurants. 33 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 3: I'm sure you've noticed it too, that there are certain 34 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: people who are going to have a bad time. 35 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 2: Yeah. 36 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 3: And I don't know what that is and it and 37 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: part of it is they expect of that time. But 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,399 Speaker 3: they expect to have that time because they're going to yeah, 39 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 3: and it's they're not imagining it. Their food was bad, 40 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 3: we did forget to bring the whatever it's. 41 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: Do you do? 42 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? I also I know what 43 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 2: you mean, and I've also experienced it. I've also experienced 44 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 2: a person who comes in and says, you know, I 45 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: want the best table in the room, and I go, well, 46 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: you know, Lucy and Forred like that one, and my 47 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: husband like that one, and we don't. We try not 48 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: to have the best table. But yeah, so right away 49 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 2: before they come in, there's a problem. Yeah, because there 50 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: is that kind of as you say, they're walking and 51 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: prepared to have a tough time. 52 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: And then they have it, and then they have it. 53 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 3: That's the That's the thing I don't understand is that 54 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 3: they make it. It's true, the terrible time they think 55 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: they're going to have they then have. Yeah, And that's 56 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: the thing I do. 57 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: You find that when you were doing stand up and 58 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 2: when you were doing. 59 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 3: That's a right show. 60 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: It's a respecting thing. You don't think people come to 61 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: your show. 62 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 3: Expecting to just like I think when you're just a 63 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: stand up on a bill, then people can hate you 64 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: because there's someone else on after you. But by the 65 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 3: time they're buying a ticket to come and see you, yeah, 66 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 3: they're kind of invested in enjoying it, like they've decided 67 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: they like you enough to buy the ticket. So there 68 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 3: was a kind of a contract that we were all 69 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 3: together in a good hoping to have a good time space. 70 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: I would say I feel that it's a theater or 71 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: even the movies where it goes anywhere. I think I 72 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: sort of think, Paul, you know what, I go with 73 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 2: the idea that what's the worst that can happen? The 74 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: player could be boring, the movie know, the food could 75 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: be overcooked, and somehow I guess I'm sort of then 76 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: I can get super critical. I'm not, but I do 77 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: feel the crime committed, yes. 78 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 3: But I do feel that it's the horror of hype, 79 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 3: you know, the movie even for the restaurant, yeah, which 80 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 3: are so hyped, but it's it's just food. Yeah, but 81 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 3: I'm eating it. 82 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. And if it's bad, I think, you know, go 83 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,679 Speaker 2: for the people on Wall Street to steal your money, 84 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: or go for the people who commit more. So, all 85 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: this actor is doing is getting up on a stage, 86 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 2: you know, and you know. 87 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 3: Doing something learned most of it. 88 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: Do you eat before show or after a show? I 89 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 2: mean kind of maybe neither o both that's good and. 90 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: That there's catering before the show. There's you know, cardboard 91 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: box or something. So I'll shovel that down me and 92 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 3: then if I've got friends at the show, we'll often 93 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: go out for dinner afterwards, so I'll have to. 94 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: I often asked that of actors. You know, do you 95 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 2: eat if there's a matinee? Do you have lunch before? 96 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: Do you wait till after? We always my friends who 97 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: are actors tend to want me to come and then 98 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 2: go out afterwards. You know, we go out for dinner. 99 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 3: You can relax that afterwards, something in your belly. You 100 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 3: need a bit of fuel. 101 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you care what you eat? I mean, do 102 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 2: you know? 103 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 3: You just they bring it to you and it's just 104 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: whatever whatever they're making that day, and I will eat 105 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 3: it like I'm not a very fussy eater.
