How big is your cock?

Can you touch your bellybutton with the tip of your erect penis while standing up straight?

Get a job at a diner cooking food, whats the big fucking deal? What are you gonna become a professional boxer now or something.

What are you planning for your last meal?

You ought to know this.

who gives a fuck how it's spelt, in the restaurant we call the station "Gar-mo" it doesn't matter.

>I was well respected even by the head chef of the restaurant.

Why the fuck does that matter?
You spent your life trying to please the people above you. Fuck off, you wont receive your fathers love here, son.

>Why the fuck does that matter?
It really doesn't matter now, but respect in the kitchen is the currency we go by. It's obvious to me you have zero days of work in an actual kitchen.

point out one sentence where i am whining.

The stress and pressure get to ya?
I know way more ex-chefs than chefs. Getting burnt out is a sad part of the business.
If you where good why not try to start something of your own. Doesnt need to be fancy to be good you know.
Or just an hero. Pussie

I'm 22 years old with little money but a car and I'm going into my last year of school (for psychology because i want to be a therapist).

Between now and completing my masters degree however, which is at least 3 years away, I need to work for money.

I'm currently a line cook at a Big Boy restaurant in my town (I know that's low brow but I do indeed "cook" some foods at the very least), and I'm enjoying it so far. I'm new to this and wondering what advice you would give a new line chef who may need to be in the industry a few years or more?

I am not going to say that pursuing a career as a chef is bad. It's not for everyone that's for sure. Most of the chefs I Knew in the restaurant have serious drinking and drug problems. That's how they cope with it.

If you came into the job expecting it to be like what you see on TV, it's totally wrong.

If you 'enjoy' cooking, do it as a hobby and work a job separate from it. I once also loved to cook, but working as a chef for 2 years has sucked all the joy and motivation from it.

The main take-away here is to keep work and enjoyment separate.

i'm a spoiled rich 21 year old and really wouldn't mind working in a kitchen. but it'd feel awkward next to a bunch of juans and pablos working their asses off along with other jobs probably. i've already worked in fast food. what do?

Funny enough, there is only 2 hispanic people on the line for my restaurant and they are both american born. They are both sous.

All the porters and food preppers are hispanic and don't speak a word of english. They are hard workers I give them that.

If you absolutely hate hispanic people, you should definitely not work in the culinary world. They do the majority of the labor intensive but menial jobs.

The pay is garbage, The sous chefs told me they work 80 hour weeks on a salary that equates to 800$ a week before taxes, and this is for a Michelin starred restaurant.
