  When Monica was fired from her job as head chef for taking free steaks, she took a job at the Moondance Diner, which fortunately for the real staff, does not force its employees to dress in 50s garb and wear roller skates, as she had to do on the show. She did meet Pete here though, who turned out to be a millionaire.
