Two little kids who could barely speak a lick English were banging on my back door. they live in the courtyard building next door to the restaurant, somehow or other a sandal ended up on my roof (we are a one story flat top building.) I retrieved said sandal, almost killing myself in the process. I made a deal with the kids to clean up all the helicopter leaves in our backyard for 5 bucks a piece.


They did a more thorough job than anybody who works for me, past or current.

Thanks, Trumps's America!

More than likely. They were plucky and industrious though. Not like our kids.

$5 for each helicopter? Very generous of you.

Reinforces my theory that any good restauranteur is a true capitalist.
