Here's a little story for you. I hope your Thanksgiving went better than this!

I worked at a restaurant that prepared Thanksgiving for 50 to 70 tables of people. We did not advertise, so we had 2 tables total the whole day. We ended up with just staff and family eating.

It was fast food serving. I took food out to people. It was the Fourth of July. We could not get orders to come up bc there were so many to run. It was a nightmare. I cried. People waited half an hour while some people waited five mins bc of the way our system loaded drink only orders vs food&drink orders

2007 damn I was like one year old. Probably drooling everywhere while this was happening

Mathew Bartell

I know you said he's Australian, but I'm still picturing Chef Joey lol

Lissie

This sounds insane 😱

Jasmine Bautista

Not your fault— straight up the hotel's fault.

Katie

I’ve felt that nightmarish blur while serving too many times. 😂

You mean there is life during waiting when it's not a nightmare blur? 😂

Thanks for sharing!

Oh man - this may have happened in Los Angeles, but it sounds SOOO DALLAS.

ScorpionsFatality

Oh gosh that sounds terrible... Glad you got through it. But happy Thanksgiving to you as well!

Karen Schwenk

What doesn’t kill ya….gives ya material

VelvetJazz

WOW… That’s so restaurant work. The perfect storm hits and there’s no place to hide! 😬😳😬

Christine Martin

This story 😭 I’m so sorry man. Ps your Australian accent is just fine.

Francene Starr

Thanks for this -- it's fun to see your various characters flit across your face momentarily as you speak....I especially love the glimpses of Pickles! xxxooo

Did you stay long enough to experience Thanksgiving the following year, hopefully set up for success, Drew? I felt this to the core. At the FS Maui, we have the same group you speak of from December 20th to January 5th EVERY YEAR. It's called Festive. These families have been coming here for 25-35yrs. These families have had children and have grown. They carry on this tradition. The hotel has changed over the years, but during Festive, it reverts back to the 'good old days', so the blur you're speaking of exists for 2.5wks, not as bad as what you experienced tho. We actually have a Festive board that lists ALL the families and their preferences, allergies and ridiculous demands. There's a family that flies in a huge box of bagels from NY. Another family has their clothes/belongings mailed ahead. A few of the families get together to have BBQ event and literally has hula hoops stored at the hotel for one of the many contests during this event. Insanity!

I’ve just paused a couple of minutes in. I’m Australian & I was in the UK from ‘98-2004. Aussie chefs were ‘flavour of the month’ internationally for most of that time. The moment Drew said ‘his name was Sean’ I thought ‘bet he was Australian’ 🤣🤣

Rebbie

Shudder.

Eden Sommerville

Wow, you win, that sounds like a complete horrorshow! "Why is everyone ordering the turkey," I'm dying

Suzanne Harle

Kinda like the reverse of my experience in Australia when I lived there for a few years. At Christmas when it's 100 degrees outside, the Brits and Americans were heating up the kitchens like an inferno with roast turkey, potatoes, and fixings. Meanwhile, the Aussies grabbed champagne, rotisserie chicken, and cold salads and headed to the beach for their family gatherings! Seems Shawn the chef had not experienced an American Thanksgiving yet. Probably his worst shift too. Strewth!
