indy-and-beauty - The Monday Morning Memo

Come. We shall look for beauty where it might be found.
And if it be not found, we shall create some of our own.
Homemade beauty is the best anyway.

– Indiana Beagle

“You can always tell when a person has worked in a restaurant. There’s an empathy that can only be cultivated by those who’ve stood between a hungry mouth and a $28 pork chop, a special understanding of the way a bunch of motley misfits can be a family. Service industry work
develops the “soft skills” recruiters talk about on LinkedIn – discipline, promptness, the ability to absorb criticism, and most important, how to read people like a book. The work is thankless and fun and messy, and the world would be a kinder place if more people tried it. With all due respect to my former professors, I’ve long believed I gained more knowledge in kitchens, bars, and dining rooms than any college could even hold.”
