STACKS OF PLATES

I'm sure you have dined in a traditional coffee shop before, at any point of your life. But have you actually paid attention to how the plates are being transferred from the kitchen to the storage? That's exactly what I saw over dinner earlier.

This big lady came walking out with a big stack of plates of different sizes, which were stacked from big to small, bottom up. Amazed at her skill at holding them together and being able to walk at the pace she did, I took a closer look.

Guess what? Both her hands supported the weight of the stack at the bottom, while her boobs were holding and balancing it right at the top. So that's the trick, hold the plates together by pressing the top and bottom together...

But wait a minute... If her boobs are pressing the plates down, that would mean that they actually have to touch, right? Oops!

Quickly looked down at my plate which I've just polished off the chicken rice, and they look exactly the same! Which means... Oh oh... Too late!

But anyway, I took comfort in the fact that I was not the only person who ate it, 'cus B did too! Hahahaa...
