<human>: A few years ago I was working at a restaurant that had just been opened, and as a budding young chef I was excited to learn about all the things.

However, I was unaware of the shady business dealings that were going on upstairs.

The owners of the restaurant were new to this kind of financial venture and weren't really sure how to run things. Even though it's best to have guidance from someone who knows the business, they had an invisible partner who was a notorious cheapskate and was constantly belittling the owners.

The place unfortunately opened during the recession and the winter so it wasn't that popular to begin with, but the invisible partner had persuaded the owners to cut their losses and sell.

Naturally, this upset all the staff and none of us found out until the day the restaurant was going to be shut down. At the time, it was just the head chef in the office and me in the kitchen doing some prep.

The chef had been on MSN messenger for an hour or so until I stopped by and asked him what was up. He simply said, "Go home, Spiders4Breakfast. I'll call you when I find a new place." 

So when I was just about to leave, I took ALL (about 2 dozen) assorted pastries and fruit garnishes and never looked back.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: You don't tell the staff about closing the restaurant until the day of, you won't be needing your pastries anymore.
