There are small gestures that say a great deal about a person. Every time a plumber, electrician, or any worker comes to do a repair at Shawn Asencio’s house, this man goes into the kitchen and prepares a meal for them. It is not a restaurant or a business, it is simply his way of treating whoever puts their hands to work in his home.
What at first might seem like an eccentricity has an explanation that resonated with thousands of people on social media. His reasoning points to something many people overlook: tradespeople often eat standing up, in a hurry, or simply without having lunch while they are on a job away from home. That is why he wanted to offer a place where they could sit down, rest, and feel appreciated after hours of physical work.
A story that invites you to ask yourself when was the last time you recognized someone’s work with something as simple as a hot meal.
@j.asencio13 My husband is very hospitable to everyone and anyone that comes to our house. When we had our backyard done he made sure to cook dinner for the landscapers every day & bought them water and soda. We recently got our front yard done and he made them breakfast 🍳 they sat down and ate together then did the job. I’m proud of the man my husband is. #fyp #foryoupage #arizona #landscape #godisgood ♬ scott street – ☆
