Okay, so I would like to tell you about the day I missed a meeting call from my apprentice chef because I overslept. The story starts like this: it was summer break between grade 10 and 11, and I wanted to try the experience of working at our day. I wanted to know the feeling of what my parents were facing.

They actually hired me, and I worked for them for one month. It was a valuable experience, but missing that call was definitely a setback for me.
