A photo circulating online had some of us squinting and asking: “Is that really him?” With concert touring on indefinite hiatus during the early days of the pandemic, legendary rocker Jon Bon Jovi took to a much smaller stage: washing dishes five days a week at a Red Bank, N.J., restaurant. For months, the Hall of Fame musician donned an apron and helped the kitchen at JBJ Soul Kitchen, run by the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation, as it cranked out thousands of to-go meals, Snopes reports. But it turns out Bon Jovi isn’t the only higher-up working the floor during the pandemic. Last week, the fast-food chain Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers announced that half of its corporate employees will have to roll up their sleeves and fry chicken tenders while the company embarks on a 50-day hiring spree of 10,000 jobs.
