He gestured for Carey to follow him, and the two of them went to the backyard behind the arcade room, where the cooks were preparing dinner.
These cooks were all apprentices signed by Anderson, as required by the manager.
Anderson would teach them real cooking skills, but they had to serve in Anderson's restaurant for ten years.
During these ten years, the restaurant wouldn't deduct their wages; they would get their rest days and salary raises as deserved. The only restriction was that they couldn't leave to work at another restaurant.
In these times, learning a skill is difficult. At first, Anderson was reluctant. He thought he should use them for free for a few years before teaching them any skills.

After the Lance incident, Anderson trusted the manager very much.
Lance brought Carey to the barbecue grill and signaled the cooks to prepare two pieces of grilled meat.
