I Tried Butler Academy

because the trays are dirty and we don't want to leave any marks and then exactly what you want to do is make sure everything looks at three. o'clock, okay ladies and gentlemen 12 15. so we have 12 minutes, you have to hurry, you have to do these things, but you also have to do them in Perfection, laying out the napkins, they are all already folded, but you have to make sure that This is looking to the left. We have five minutes left. Absolutely two men. Feel free to use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up what you saw. Good job.

Thank you. What a whirlwind. It's fun. It's exciting to learn the actual rules of how things are supposed to be done. not because they are right, but because it gives you a feeling of comfort. I want to come here exactly because of that, you know, I wanted to learn what makes something look so comfortable and I'm actually a programmer. I have never worked in hospitality. my life in no way, yeah, yeah, never, I mean, this is the gold standard, yeah right, like if you go through this, you survive these 10 weeks, that's how exhausting. The activity of everything has to be perfect, there's a different way to approach the level of detail and I just wanted to know that you know the table is set and although I think we got it totally right on the Mississippi River, the test is not over yet.

It's actually a two-part test where I'll have to give a speech during the meal so I can practice my public speaking. Ladies and gentlemen, lunch is served, ladies and gentlemen, enjoy your lunch if everyone would raise their cup of tea, congratulations. to Mr. Come Here, who got the job. Oh congratulations of course we wish him all the best and fantastic well done the pressure is on he got the job but he hasn't graduated yet so make sure you do it sir. Don't ask me to investigate anything, but you said he might be ready to give a speech if you ask him right.

Are you ready? I think it's wonderful. We'll find out shortly. You don't have the topic yet or if you like difficult or easy. Well. she used to speak in public, so it shouldn't be too easy, oh, let me think, um, Venus, indeed, Mr. Foreigner, my lord, ladies and gentlemen, I am very excited to tell you today a little about our solar system and specifically Venus , wait what you are about to witness is hugely embarrassing and most people would never let this see the light of day so before we watch this incredibly embarrassing moment in my life hit subscribe thank you now you can know that Venus is one of our planets. previously there were nine and Pluto is no longer one of them, unfortunately we have heard the phrase Men are from Venus, women are from Mars, actually I think it is the opposite Men are from Mars when women are from Venus, but What this really reminds me of is the vastness of space and what there is to explore a few years ago I had the pleasure of training with NASA astronauts at the Johnson Space Center in Houston Texas I personally have a great fear of space maybe some of you have had that dream that you are George Clooney in gravity going out into the immensity of space.

I have definitely had that nightmare a few times and this experience was amazing for me to face that fear head on and consider if it is a real fear that I have or it is completely irrational. That experience really taught me that some of our biggest nightmares are in fact irrational and that sometimes we can even control. I won't be going to space anytime soon. Thank you very much foreigner, it lasted one minute and 39 seconds. One minute 39. I think that's a record of the shortest three-minute speech ever, okay, yeah, uh, short, off-topic, off-topic, not so much my concern, but you didn't come full circle and you're not very entertaining in regards to your body posture, very rigid. try to keep eye contact at all times thank you, thank you sir, I think that was pretty bad, maybe the part is not the talking part, it's the making things up part, it's like, why am I talking about Venus?

I'm the damn circle, it is what it is. a circle doesn't feel like sometimes you're disappointed what's the point and also like you're behaving like someone you're not because that's how I feel now all the other things I felt like I'm just not being myself it's very It's strange, I would say it's quite natural, but at the end of the day, as stewards, I would say what they are teaching is that you really have to transform and adapt at the beginning and you're right, what am I going to do? It has to do with the ability to talk about Venus for three minutes, but the point of being a

butler

is correct, it's not about us, it's about pleasing him and if he wants to talk about Venus and whatever, we have to give that speech of the way he likes it and I don't know, you know it's just one of those things.

I think attending something like this is also a test of ego for you, at least that's what it was for me. You know, you've probably heard of technology. Increase in San Francisco and New York navigating that life. Am I getting too comfortable? I would say: How many people would love to have my job and my salary? And I began to wonder: Am I really improving not only financially but also? as a human being, I go down to the basics, you know, the way down is the way up, it's like you can really humble yourself to do a job like this, you're in a very good position to be a leader. my final exam I must admit that I feel tremendously unprepared and since I have failed each and every assignment that has been asked of me up to this point, this is my last chance to save my final grade.

Good morning Miss Curry, good morning sir, today we are going to take a look at how to set a table and then you will have to memorize it and make an exact copy. Okay, got it right, let's get started. The cover plate now has to go down exactly in the middle, where then What you need to know is how far from the edge the plate is and that should be exactly two centimeters what now follows is the cutlery and you are measuring exactly two centimeters from the edge of the plate four four two centimeters two centimeters the dessert Cutlery whose distance you guess two centimeters is fine four four eight and this is how the table is set, it's beautiful well, I'll give you five minutes yes sir, are you up for the challenge?

Challenge accepted, a professional

butler

should be able to set a table for two. in five minutes, so time starts here. No, can I make your phones do calculations? Why would you need a calculator? You have one minute 10 seconds left five four three two one hands up well, it doesn't seem like much, right? It takes a lot of time to measure everything in mathematics, calculating in hand is a very important thing, but not only for setting the table, but in general in life, we should not rely too much on our mobile phones to do that, sir, yes I am allowed.

Ask, yes, is there any practical reason to measure each item on the table? Okay, no, if I can take a seat, get down, pretend to be a guest, now that you have the bread in your hand and want to put some butter on it, take the knife. The hand holds a knife in the right hand, yes, so it was supposed to spin, no, it goes on the plate. The first thing you see is that some people would position their knife like this. I'm pretty sure you've seen it before. Try it. taking the knife is a very uncomfortable movement, no, that's why the naive one goes here tries to take it and that's what we always think about when we do something at the table, which way would be easier for the guest anyway I still want you to put the table, slow down and try to be as precise as possible.

Thank my Lord. I originally came to this school to learn how to take better care of myself and manage my own life better and after my first few lessons I became very frustrated. Seeing how bad I was at everything and everything seemed so arbitrary and meaningless, I quickly began to question every rule I was taught, but the more time I spent talking to students, the more I began to understand why I was wrong, it's not a job What can you do without having a passion for it? Sometimes we start at four in the morning and finish the next day, but we always have to do it with a smile.

It is a very rewarding job. It is simply a consolation that you provide the idea of ​​being comfortable every time. That you are with them, gratitude and a smile will be the greatest rewards you can get. If I can wake up, open the door for my mom to cook her some scrambled eggs, her favorite, and she receives the joy of that, it is something that money cannot do. can buy, it's not really about the wine glass on the second course being two centimeters from the charging plate, it's about creating a moment for someone else and while I don't necessarily agree with many of the rules or how they are criticized things here now I can appreciate the desire of the students to strive for excellence and want to serve others in the process three two one hands up the measurements are slightly off oh, I guess we will still have to train a little on that the amount The maximum number of points you could achieve would be one thousand, by calculating it you could receive 580 points, which would give you a certificate of attendance instead of a diploma at graduation and, although I failed my final challenge, I am very grateful to have been able to meet so many .

Incredible, talented human beings who have chosen to dedicate their lives to others.
