Love this. Pacing is great. I would’ve been fine with another false ending to the dreams. I know you’ve mentioned HSJr in some of your live sessions. This def has some of that Tappy Tibbons vibe to it, maybe some BEE too with the Paul Allens and Patrick Batemans taunting him. Can’t wait to read the book.
Nightmares are an interesting side effect of working in a restaurant. You have not embellished here. Every restaurant related nightmare I’ve ever had is as intense and disturbing as the one you describe here. Elevated prose. I always appreciate your writing Connor. Well done!
That’s some heavy shit weighing on your psyche brother. Again man the flow is so good. If it makes you feel better I’m sick from reading it in a moving bus. I started when we were stuck in traffic and couldn’t stop when we started rolling.
That was so stressful, man. Well done, I look forward to reading more. Love learning new words, too - "mise-en-place" - everything in its place - a phrase I crave daily.
That was f*ing unbelievable! At first, I couldn't believe they were treating you and getting away with it. Then I realized it was just a dream! 🫶
Thank you, Yolanda!

Thank you, Matt! High praise indeed.
Damn. If the people who say that the 'afterlife are like dreams' are correct. This has got to be one of the lower circles of hell.
Indeed.
This is my hell.
Thanks for the comment, Matthew.
This is a mood! This hit hard! Bravo.

That's restaurant work!
Thank you, Rachel!
Waitress nightmares. In the weeds. My wife still has them occasionally even though it’s been 30 years since quitting the “service” industry.
It’s a rough life, brother.
Thanks for reading.

Thank you, Tristan! Glad it... made you sick. (I am.)
Heavy indeed.

Thank you, Victoria. It's a common term in fine dining.
