-: I love working in the restaurant,
I love the people skills and the communication
that I have with my employees and with my customers.
So I love that interaction.
I don't know if I would be totally happy
doing seven days a week, every day at the restaurant,
and that's where my travels and the things
that I do on the road,
so with limits because sometimes
the traveling gets to be too much,
but with limits in a good amount,
the traveling around the appearances on television,
the corporate catering all over the country,
the product testing and promotion.
Working with these companies all over,
not only on their products, but with there employees,
whether it be a session with them
to teach their employees barbecue,
and things like that.
My job changes from day to day, to week to week.
Its never the same thing every month.
It's always different, and I love the change.
I love the newness, and I love learning,
and that's why I love my job.
The most difficult thing about what I do is
juggling everything that I do.
It's not just the restaurant,
it is a lot of other things, and it is juggling,
but it's about delegation, it's about management,
it's about know what your people
and your staff can do and their strengths,
so they can pick up your slack.
I would not be able to do what I do
and go the places that I go
without an excellent staff back at the restaurant
that is covering me while I'm gone.
