The Bear’s Non-Negotiables, Ranked by Negotiability
Sorry Carmy, most of these feel extremely negotiable.
Personal hygiene Carmy unfortunately does not elaborate further on this point, but one can assume that this means that everyone at the restaurant should wash their hands frequently, bathe regularly and things of that nature. It is also an incredibly stupid policy because drafting a new menu each day is time-consuming, having to buy so much food will be expensive and absolutely no one will care if the menu is different every day except maybe food snobs like Chef Joel McHale, who is the person Carmy is obviously trying to emulate and impress with this list. If he means respect the traditions of The Bear/the sandwich joint formerly known as The Original Beef of Chicago, I guess everyone should just keep on yelling constantly, locking themselves in the walk-in at the worst possible time, and pulsating with panic and anxiety.
