<VV> Perception is reality ?

[Ron]

Yes, I've known a lot of people who worked and ate at a restaurant.  When in 
college, I had a meal job where you worked for your meals and I had a lot of 
good meals.  My daughter had several restaurant jobs while in High School 
and often ate there with no problems at all.
