Welcome to the Day of Jank Show, part of the Ringer podcast network presented by Major

of America. Welcome to 2022, a brand new year, brand new me, joined with Chris Ying, Noel, we're

going to get right into the show with a pre-moife business about the holidays. First day back after

winter break, it's weird not being in restaurants because I've never had this much time off in my life.

You texted us on what was it? The 7th or the last Monday?

27th or something. You were like, this is going to sound ass-nime, but the people outside of the

restaurant business not work during this week. It's like, oh sorry Dave, first time.

Yeah, so weird. Yeah, so weird. Because what is paying a picture in the business? What is that

week between Christmas and New Year's general link? There's no holiday. Is that a crazy week in the

restaurant business? No, it's slow, but you still are open. I mean, many restaurants are open

Christmas day. We chose many years ago to be open, New Year's day, not everyone is, but because,

you know, I felt like we made good hangover food, but in general, I mean, we've talked about this

before. I'm like sort of back in civilian life, but when you're working in restaurants, you never

want the days off that everyone has off. I didn't know that. When I first started cooking, I got my

first schedule, and I remember like, Damon or Marco at craft, they were like, here you go, and I was

so stoked. I was like, oh, so there's Sundays off. Amazing. And I'm like, somebody's like, you idiot,

that means that you're the most disposable person. You don't want you here. They chose for you not

to work on the busiest nights. Yeah. Yeah. Your liability. And it took me some time, because like,

that first year, two years, when you're sort of entering the world of cooking, you miss the lifestyle

of what you depart, right? Which was summer holidays, vacations. I couldn't even tell you what

what are national holidays today. I mean, like this, I have no idea. I have honestly, you know,

Grace makes fun of me because like, I still don't know the days of Thanksgiving and Christmas.
