A friend of mine
works for a sushi place. When I worked for a steakhouse, the shop owner never
let us eat steak. But the owner of the sushi place is generous. All the workers
can eat sushi as much as they can. What an envious workplace! That must be the
most ideal place to work.
But my friend does
not eat sushi anymore. He goes to the convenience store and buys precooked food
as his lunch and dinner. At the beginning of the job, he enjoyed sushi every
day. But two or three months later, he started to get tired of it. His
coworkers also didn’t eat sushi.
Sushi is delicious
and expensive. But if we eat it every day, we may get tired of it. We dream of
eating expensive special meals every day, but it should not be like that. Most
Japanese love to eat sushi, steak, and boiled eels, but we should not eat them
every day.
Dear friends, even
if we become rich, we should not eat the same thing every day as it would
reduce the value of our favorite dish. We should eat our favorite dish once in
a while. It makes the dishes special to us.
