FINALLY!!!

Yesterday was the first day of august and at the beginning of the summer the Chefs Table told me to call back in august. So i picked up the phone at a slow hour of the day and called, but the chef was unlivable. The waiter said that he wanted my contact info and that was probably the best news i have herd all summer, not that that ment anything, but the face that they didn't say no, I gave then my e-mail (witch is the best way to contact me due to me not having a cellphone.)

Today I woke up to do the thing I hate most in this world (and if you read my last post you would know what I am talking about, but if you did not I am talking about yard work) so after I got home I was pretty tired and a little bit angry, I picked up to liters of Cokeacola and walked to my computer and as always I checked my face book and e-mail, as I was looking threw my e-mails I say that a chef troy had e-mailed me, and this is what it said:

Ethan,
Sorry I didn't have time to talk to you today. I would however like to have you come by the restaurant so I can meet you. I think you would have a great learning experience here at CT.
Would this be an official internship? or just you bettering yourself skills wise?


Call me on Tuesday if you get a chance.

Thanks!
Troy


I was slap jawed, the chefs table! one of the only fine dining restaurant in the Provo/Orem area sounds like they want me to work with them! yes! My emotions instantly turned into joy and excitement!
I could not get My hopes up to high though. I read the e-mail at about 1:30 PM, I did not want to call in the middle of lunch service. so I waited till 3:00 PM. I was almost instantly connected to chef troy, And the words that I wanted to hear most was said in that phone call "you can start tomorrow". I was amazed, his only concern was insurance stuff, and all I have to do get my parents signatures saying that it is not the chefs tables fault if I get hurt.
So I start tomorrow at 9:30 AM! I will have a lot to tell you about when I get home.

so in summary: The summer just got better.



It was like a wonderful late birthday present (which was a couple of days ago).
