That's the best part for me. 91 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.240 It's one thing to talk about this in the abstract. 92 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:10.040 It's one thing to say, Oh, children are being fed 93 00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:13.040 twenty five thousand each and every week. That's kind of 94 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:16.279 hard to really wrap your mind around. But when someone 95 00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:20.040 comes up to you and says, Chef Bruno saved me 96 00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:23.639 and my family, it makes it much more tangible. It 97 00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:27.040 makes it real and you can see how lives are 98 00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.480 being changed each and every week. 99 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:31.680 That's why and. 100 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:34.639 I do recommend people actually come down to the Anaheim 101 00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:39.160 White House. Meet Chef Bruno, talk with him, find out 102 00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:42.560 how he does what he does, how he makes this 103 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.480 magic every single week. Have him introduce you to some 104 00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:50.560 of the volunteer staff people that he's who he's helped personally, 105 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.439 who are working here in the restaurant, who will go 106 00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.399 on to different careers. Listen to how he has changed 107 00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:59.000 people's lives. 108 00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:01.480 Don't get me wrong. I appreciate each and every one 109 00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:02.319 of your donations. 110 00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:06.279 I do, but it's also more important to learn about 111 00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:10.079 the actual people, not just the process, but the people 112 00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.199 who he's touching, the people that he's feeding, the lives 113 00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:17.839 that he's changing, the families that he's rehousing. Once you 114 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:23.319 hear that firsthand, you get a more complete understanding of 115 00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:27.160 how important not only this night is, but how important 116 00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:31.399 Caterina's Club is to help people as best you can. 117 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.319 Right where you are. We're not helping people, and there's 118 00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.399 nothing wrong with it, but we're not helping people who. 119 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.680 Are on the other side of the country per se. 120 00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:44.240 We're helping kids right here that you would presumably pass 121 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:45.680 each and every day. 122 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:51.079 And it's so simple, it's almost difficult. It's so simple. 123 00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.480 You think, well, I can't really be helping that many children. No, 124 00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:57.240 it is that simple. 125 00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.480 Every single donation that you you have is going to 126 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:06.360 be feeding children. It is an A B proposition. With 127 00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:10.240 your donation, children are being fed.

I'm 193 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.159 I'm willing to bet that your grandmother or mother has 194 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:15.879 special recipes that they won't give you yet. 195 00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.360 Yes, which ones are those? 196 00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:25.559 It's like the ones that they make occasionally on like 197 00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:29.360 family dinners and everything, and so it's like roast or 198 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.200 just like these desserts I don't know, like pork chops 199 00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:36.720 like stuff like that. They keep like this special recipe 200 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:38.799 in a book, but then they like how to the 201 00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:40.799 Way books, so I can't find it until I'm older. 202 00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:41.440 Okay. 203 00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:45.399 As a part of this internship, I know you're learning 204 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:48.960 something every single day. What surprises you about what you 205 00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:52.480 learn is it like. For example, some may start in 206 00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:56.240 the hospitality industry and they're surprised at how much work 207 00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:57.559 is it's involved. 208 00:10:57.960 --> 00:10:59.639 Has anything surprised you so far? 209 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:01.120 How much people like bread? 210 00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:05.120 I happen to be one. Just keep the bread floid. 211 00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:08.200 What else have you learned or noticed? Lowell? 212 00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:11.120 I've learned a lot about how to communicate better with 213 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:15.120 customers and how to address their needs and how to 214 00:11:15.159 --> 00:11:17.159 do it in like a timely manner, and also how 215 00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:20.000 to be in a fast paced environment without getting like 216 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:20.960 overly stressed. 217 00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:25.240 Customer service, I believe is probably the most difficult facet 218 00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:28.639 of any industry. When I say you're front facing, you're 219 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:32.320 dealing with customers, You're dealing with people, maybe they've had 220 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:35.919 a bad day, maybe they're just naturally impatient, and you 221 00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:39.519 don't get to have a bad day at least on 222 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.240 your face. How did you go about learning how. 223 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:43.840 To manage that? 224 00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:46.440 Well, if I ever feel like I'm just having a 225 00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:49.279 really bad day, I'll take at least one minute to 226 00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:52.720 myself and then I'll recollect my thoughts and know that 227 00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:55.960 I have to do this in order so everybody else, 228 00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.759 like I don't bring anybody else down. And so I've 229 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:01.399 learned from that and from there on I've always had 230 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:02.480 like a smile on my face. 231 00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:05.600 How involved is Chef Bruno in this process? Still? How 232 00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:08.519 often do you see him? Is he hands on? Is 233 00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:11.200 he pulling you aside and giving you personal advice? How 234 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:12.080 does he work with you? 235 00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:15.639 He's basically here almost all the time I'm here, and 236 00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:19.200 he's always just going around, especially in the kitchen, and 237 00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:21.960 he's making sure we have like everything we need to 238 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.240 do and that we do it correctly. 239 00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.399 What are the different facets of hospitality that you're learning. 240 00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:30.200 I'm learning. 241 00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:36.279 A lot about just service and how to address, how 242 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.600 to address people and time management. 243 00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:41.200 How long are your days? Usually? 244 00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:44.639 My days are Usually we only have to be here 245 00:12:44.679 --> 00:12:47.440 for about five hours, but if we want to, say 246 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:50.039 a little bit over time, we can't, and then that'll 247 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:51.320 just contribute to our hours. 248 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:55.759 Have you seen anything which says, okay, now, I thought 249 00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:57.960 when I started, I wanted to do this, but now 250 00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.399 I really really want to do this because I learned 251 00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:02.399 something along the way. 252 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:07.039 It's probably I've always wanted to be in like the restaurant, 253 00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.000 but now that I'm actually here, I've kind of just 254 00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:13.679 wanted to be like more involved, especially in the front 255 00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:18.000 a lot because I like interacting with customers and helping them. 256 00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:23.080 You like to interact with customers, That'll change. 257 00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:28.360 But it's true. What is the best part of what 258 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:28.759 you do? 259 00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:32.080 Yes, you like to interact with customers, But is it 260 00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.480 seeing a smile on one of their faces? Is it 261 00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:38.440 knowing that they're going to come back because of the 262 00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:40.639 service that you've given. What do you think is the 263 00:13:40.679 --> 00:13:41.320 best part. 264 00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:41.639 Of what you do? 265 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:44.879 I think it is because of the smiles that become 266 00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:47.080 across their faces, especially when I noticed they're like a 267 00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:49.840 little like not talkative. I'll make some jokes and then 268 00:13:49.840 --> 00:13:52.240 they'll they'll laugh and it will make me feel like 269 00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:55.600 I'm actually doing something to help somebody. And I know 270 00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:58.080 that in the long run that if they're really having 271 00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:00.320 a bad day, so like given a small simple smile 272 00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:01.159 can help them. 273 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.399 What are you looking for? How do you know that 274 00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:04.879 it's a good time for a joke or not? 275 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:07.720 Because I always know it's a good time for a 276 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:10.200 joke if they're talking about the bread a lot, or 277 00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:12.200 if they just don't seem that talkative. 278 00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:15.240 There's that bread there again. 279 00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:19.200 What do you think is going to be next for 280 00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:22.559 you in your career? Because now you have this is 281 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:24.879 that you can put on your resume. You have worked 282 00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:28.679 in one of the best restaurants in California and probably 283 00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:29.399 the country. 284 00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:31.200 What is next for you? 285 00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.639 I think I can get into a lot of like 286 00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.600 bigger restaurants, high end restaurants with this, especially because it 287 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:42.480 is more of a high end restaurant. And also I 288 00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:45.159 would want to play hereafter so I would get more 289 00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:46.200 of that experience. 290 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:51.159 Would you want to work more as in the service 291 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:55.480 industry or would you want to also see what your 292 00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:57.000 baking skills. 293 00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:57.200 May lead to. 294 00:14:57.879 --> 00:14:59.919 I kind of want to lean towards what my big 295 00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:01.120 married too. 296 00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:02.759 All Right, you don't have to choose one or the other, 297 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.080 but you know you have the whole world in front 298 00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.279 of you, and that's the best part of having a 299 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:09.080 clear vision of what you want to do. 300 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.159 And you're already ahead of the game. 301 00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:14.200 You are ahead of most of your peers, probably all 302 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.559 of them who have any inclination of working in this business.

And then my wife's in the education business, 339 00:16:54.240 --> 00:16:57.039 and you know, she would talk about, you know, kids 340 00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:58.919 come to school and they were hungry in the morning, 341 00:16:58.919 --> 00:17:00.639 and how much different it is when they try to 342 00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:02.159 learn and they don't. 343 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:04.880 Get food in their real They can't concentrate, they can't 344 00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:08.480 I think about how why someone told me long ago, 345 00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:10.079 just try to do what you can with what you 346 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:12.759 have right where you are right And we all have 347 00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:14.240 various levels of what I. 348 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:18.240 Call blessings to be able to help people in various ways. 349 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:20.839 But this seems more personal for you. 350 00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:23.359 Well, it just seems so simple to me. You know, 351 00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:26.000 when you can donate a dollar and you can feed 352 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:28.519 a child one night, at least it's a dollar, and 353 00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:30.839 at least it's one night, you know, So it just 354 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.440 seems really simple. It's a simple thing to do, and 355 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:36.839 it amazes me how difficult we make things in life. 356 00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:40.759 We do make it more difficult than it is. Speaking 357 00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:44.880 of simplicity, you were the guiding force. Correct me if 358 00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:47.079 I'm wrong as to how you can walk into a 359 00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:50.279 Wendy's and you can make your donation and get a 360 00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:52.119 coupon book in return. 361 00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:53.160 Where did that come from? 362 00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:58.640 Well, as usual, it's easier when you offer something to 363 00:17:58.759 --> 00:17:59.759 get somebody to come in. 364 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.920 Oh say that again.
