Despite knowing this, Keith, Christine, and Richard have all chosen to dedicate their time to building their careers in this industry which they compare to a “disease”. The trio reminisce when they first caught the working bug and how different the younger generations entering the industry are now. The Media Instilling Fear Keith and Christine continue to stay firm with their stance against the vaccine mandate and how it remains an anti-restaurant industry. Richard joins in and sees how politicized the pandemic response has become, instilling fear among civilians and forcing vaccines to those who refuse to take it.
