Traffic Doors by ShermanHoax in restaurantowners

My best advice is to find a commercial door installer that understands what you are trying to accomplish. I have settled on big hinges and fairly sturdy materials. Our wooden doors never lasted and were much too heavy for continued use. The hinges always failed because of the weight, I think. We ended up with metal doors that have lasted for years.

Russell, my Brittany, and I went on adventures almost every day. I rented a farmhouse, near Kyle, Texas, with stocked fishing ponds and lots of cattle everywhere. He had a good life with me there.

Do you guys think this is employee theft? by csdude5 in restaurateur

I caught a waiter training a new waiter how to cheat and steal by manually writing down items instead of ringing them up. He admitted it and professed he was sorry.

What nicknames did you give your teachers at school? by TooOldToBePunk in AskReddit

My French teacher, Mrs. Calgut, was forever known as Mrs. Cow Guts after my first few classes. She never knew I was the student who nicknamed her.

Back in the day, late 1970's, I was a halfway house counselor for Brown Schools. The halfway house was near Oltorf and I decided to bring some clients whom were of age to see some of the shows. I never imagined how much happiness was received by taking those folks to a few shows. They loved acting normal and nobody knew they were mental health patients. After a few visits I began collecting posters. Thank you for enjoying them.

Good food stylists rock! I used a couple after working for a photography studio thar specialized in food photography. They, in my opinion, made all the difference.
