What would it take for you to quit a high-paying job?
For one former bank executive, it was helping out at the prawn mee eatery her husband had started.
On Tuesday (Nov 10), Seth Sim, the owner of Da Shi Jia Big Prawn Mee, shared the story of how his wife, Yvonne Tan, ended up joining him on his F&B journey.
“I never imagined that a woman working in a bank in Singapore would marry someone like me, who sells prawn noodles,” the 36-year-old said in the Instagram video. “She even quit her job and stayed by my side for 10 whole years.”
Recounting his younger years, Seth shared that his friends would often introduce women to him as his demanding work schedule at his father’s seafood zi char business left him with little time to socialise.
“When I was working for my father, we would work until closing time, which was around 1am or 2am,” he recalled.
Among the women Seth had met through these introductions, Yvonne stood out with her willingness to share expenses on their dates, rather than expecting him to pay for everything like the others.
In fact, she called the waiter over and offered to foot the bill.
“I thought it was strange because it was really the first time a women had paid for me,” he said.
This was one of the occasions that made him realise she was someone who was willing to help lighten his burdens.
