  • jason_jell_ Sam Knoll: [00:00:00] Man, how are you doing? Jason Jell: [00:00:02] Uh, it busy, very busy. We've we're we've got a couple of big meetings coming up and been prepping for them and, uh, I'll be happy when we're on Christmas break. Let's put it that way. How about Sam Knoll: [00:00:14] yourself? Yeah, I'm, I'm kind of the same. I've just got so many balls in the air. It's kind of nuts right now. So, which is good. So Jason Jell: [00:00:22] yeah, nobody likes to be bored. Sam Knoll: [00:00:25] That's right. Not at all. So, well, this, I knew this would sound weird having me get you on here. I'm going to keep moving around because things bothering me. But anyways, um, because I know you have nothing to do with food service industry at all right Jason Jell: [00:00:45] now, but I knew you Sam Knoll: [00:00:48] had some history. And, uh, and so I thought, I don't know. I figured it could be a little fun just to get you in and just find out. I mean, it's interesting kind of even how you got into it, why you did it. Um, I think do, did you meet Jennifer, your wife, where you were working or did you know her before that? Jason Jell: [00:01:10] No. No, I, I, I, uh, I met her there. I, uh, started, I started in restaurants when I was 16. It was my first real job. Um, you know, before that paper, boy. Worked on a farm, uh, cut cabbage broccoli, picked corn through hay and, um, restaurants were like, it was my first stable job. Let's call it that. And, um, uh, and I remember when I first started, he was, uh, I remember it because they wore these pasta steak and sea house. So is the restaurant and, um, it's a, it's a chain, but it's primarily in Pennsylvania. There's some in New York. Uh they're they're still around. Um, And, uh, I was doing my rotation thing in the beginning where they're doing the walk run and everything. She was bagging trash cans. Uh, she was a waitress at the time. And, uh, they had these, when we first started, they wore these, like, I swear, I was like a little house on the Prairie kind of dress looking thing. Um, there were white with like, like poofy shoulders and like, uh, yeah, it, so I remember, um, I remember when I first saw her. and we didn't date for a whole bunch of years after that, because a couple of years, she's a couple of years older than me. And you know, when you're 16, you know, dating somebody who's a couple of years older than you it's like a big deal now. So we didn't date until I was in college, actually. So it was probably about a half a dozen years or so, but we knew each other, obviously the whole time. That's Sam Knoll: [00:02:46] pretty wild. I didn't realize all of that. That's kind of cool. Jason Jell: [00:02:50] Oh yeah. I got a lot of, I do have a lot of restaurant years under my belt, I guess I should say that. Probably about 10 years I spent working there. I was a dish man, uh, for several years. Uh, that was my, that was where I cut my teeth in restaurant. And, um, you know, then I, I graduated to, uh, two, well line. Like I worked, uh, just the end line where I did all like the. Final finish crap, where they put the new guys. And then I moved over gradually to like try or which is where they put the new guys that are half decent. And then, you know, eventually ended up being a grill, man, doing the steak and seafood still have the, still have the scars to prove it, uh, all over my arms. Sam Knoll: [00:03:35] You too, dude. It was really funny the other day. I don't know why. I found myself like looking at my right arm. I was like, man, I've got like nine or 10 scars down my arm here that I never even pondered. You know, Jason Jell: [00:03:49] and my fingers Sam Knoll: [00:03:50] look like, you know, I've like been fighting somebody in a back alley or something, Jason Jell: [00:03:56] and it's all like little cuts and whatever Sam Knoll: [00:03:58] else from working in restaurants. Jason Jell: [00:04:02] I remember, um, I remember when it was...
