Working healthcare, I tell all other healthcare / first responders “I hope you have a boring shift” (every once in a while a younger person objects, but they are almost immediately hushed / corrected by their senior coworker).

But it occurs to me that many office / sedentary workers might not find this to be a blessing. What would I say to a desk worker that might be equivalent?

                To eat: Pistachio ravioli — Not only is it the best savory dish on the menu, it’s vegetarian and cheese-free. I also like to sell this, as it generates positive reviews and repeat business, since we’re the only place in town that sells anything like it.

                To sell: Avocado toast with house-cured salmon gravlax — I like to eat this, too, albeit vegan for myself; but the quick pickup time, bright color contrast, and great flavor make it one that people remember positively, and seeing it on a nearby table often makes other patrons ask “what is that and can I have it?” It’s also a good utility item because the kitchen can make it all day, so it’s a breakfast-y option for those who missed the breakfast menu cutoff. And of course, with the optional salmon add-on it’s the most high-dollar item at breakfast, driving sales and percentage-based tipping.
