it's an incredibly high pressure job, even one mistake can fuck up the ENTIRE night, snowballing into a gigantic mess.
And the drug abuse rarely helped in those cases, the stoners were always less angry than the ones on coke, but they were a lot more prone to fucking up too.

You may be something else but ultimately you may be a chef all this time.
Im an engineer and I'll always be an engineer. I took astrophysics at A-level and wanted to look at stars but I ended up looking at electronic signals. It's not the same but similar.

So death, the most terrifying of ills, is nothing to us, since so long as we exist, death is not with us; but when death comes, then we do not exist. It does not then concern either the living or the dead, since the former it is not, and the latter are no more.

However the culture in most kitchens is absolutely atrocious, and it's a hard cycle to break and even harder to ignore.
I still work with food, and I occasionally have to get in the kitchen, but it's not my primary role anymore.
Fair we were actually at a restaurant today the kitchen was so backed up and messed up our table so much because apparently the owner decided it was great idea to leave just 1st week trainies on the line and give head cook time off they comped the whole thing. I did not get much time in commercial kitchen but it can be brutal but fun.

No idea what I wanted to be, still no idea really. Other than happy I suppose, at risk of sounding like a cliche.

I have a friend who is an A&E doctor. He lives in a mansion. Fair play to him he deserves it.
I still take pills I buy from India. He doesn't agree with my choices either.
