Me? I just try to be a bit goofy in my normal posts, I tend to write small novels for my posts, so it's easy to toss some levity in, especially self-depreciating stuff.

I agree to the point the the 'human' side is germane to the business. Plating and cooking don't mesh. But seeing the boss in the shop at the wheel is personalizing the business well enough. I've seen too many businesses where the owner is obscure.
Sure, when you boil it down, all business inner offices are strikingly similar, but the shop end (ir the business is producing a product) is as different as there are businesses. Put the owner in the shop enough for the credibility.
My grandfather used to say he could sit at anyone's desk at a 25 employee business and do their job and he wasn't afraid to tell them that, in a supportive way.
