The Dishwasher and the Idiot


Once upon a time, there was a
young Chicano who had dreams
of owning his own restaurant.

He worked as a dishwasher for two
years, but one day the cook did not
show up, and he was asked to learn
how to cook.

It took time but he eventually learned
the trade, since that was his passion
he stayed in that position for a few
years and eventually, he decided to 
go to school and become a chef.

During this time, there was a young
loco who, used to make fun of
him and call him busboy, wimp and
other not so nice names each time he
passed by the corner liquor store
on his way home.

But he just ignored the insults and
kept going his own way instead of
choosing to follow the wrong crowd.
While the idiot, kept getting deeper
and deeper in trouble.

A few years later the used to be
dishwasher opened up his own small
restaurant, which became very popular.
One day a customer asked the young
restaurant owner how much he made
per week.

The young man replied, “Oh about
a hundred thousand dollars per week.”
Right then, a customer came in and
said that there was some idiot outside
bothering customers and asking for
spare change!


Can you imagine a vato loco who thinks 
he’s all macho asking for a spare quarter?

Young people choose a career wisely,
because in this life we each choose and
make our own destiny!
