    On January 30, 1980, the narrator learned an important lesson about personal boundaries while serving a customer. A drunken patron offered Gert a significant amount of money for a night’s work, which Gert declined, despite the narrator’s initial surprise at the offer. They discussed professional limits and the potential of monetary influence on integrity. The conversation shifted away from work to lighthearted topics about pigeons and historical anecdotes from the kitchen, demonstrating camaraderie among the staff.

    An amusing mistake occurred when the narrator misread an order for truffles instead of trifles, resulting in confusion in the kitchen. After being criticized by a head chef, the narrator went to fetch the correct dessert, only to mess up again by taking the wrong dishes for delivery. This incident added to the chaotic atmosphere, which was typical of a busy night in the restaurant. Finally, Mister Mand entered the kitchen with perfume samples, causing excitement among the staff as they clamored for a piece of the unexpected bounty, showcasing the comradery and lively dynamics within the restaurant's team.
