He has worked in several restaurants during that time and we keep running into one another. Having this long-term relationship has made me very aware that servers, cooks, and washers, along with the night cleaning crew and the kid who parks cars are all people with lives just like me.

Guilty as charged. But I do think your point about being aware of human beings behind clean plates and cutlery is very valid.

File this under Lesson's Learned at Mother's Knee -- OR -- more of ella's blah blah. :) I suppose there’s one in every crowd – somebody who takes something light and sees something serious.
