Oh how I miss you. I even miss the steam burns. I gotta actually cook hard boiled eggs now at the new place. And steam veggies/tortillas. Fucking rice, dammit. I gotta do it all like a peasant.

They told us the night before. We are working out of the prep kitchen with everything on ice and supposedly a “limited menu”. lol nope. We have no ticket system set up and the guest seating is so far from our prep area that the servers are running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
My question here though: our menu says we have certain things that we dont and then doesnt say certain things that we do. So, possibly, could this be a legal issue? Should i call OSHA lmao?

ETA: Its 98 degrees outside so the ice is melting like a mf

Plating was good, but I wanted more of that pan sauce!

Kinda bittersweet. I accepted an offer for an inventory coordinator position and I’m really excited to start my journey in supply chain / logistics. It’s been real.

Enjoy a picture of my favorite bean salad with local produce, said produce, and my favorite labels printed by my annoying coworker.

✌️🤙😬

Forgot we're in rural Maine, guy got us a case of glizzies, fuck my life

They fired my lead cook. I'm a chef at a small corporate chain. He and his gf just had a baby. 6 weeks ahead of schedule. Kids on ventilator in the NICU. My boy calls out. I cover, thrice over. No problem with me. I raised this former dishwasher to Lead in two months, and he put in the work and earned it. Today I get a frantic call from my gm warning me to stay cool. And she filled me in that our dm came down and fired my Lead, under the guise of a standard 90 day probo.My gm put in her two weeks. I made dinner for 60 people. Tf man

Photo semi related (98 cups total if you're curious). Im a very picky eater and not very adventurous person, always have been, and thus have never had issues with allergens other than strawberries, which makes my face and mouth hurt a lil. I started working in kitchens under the impression I have no real allergies. HOWEVER its as tho working in a kitchen suddenly has me suffering for my life. The melon mix we use makes me cough (???), the roasted tomato juice got on my arm once and I broke out in hives for a few hours, i avoid the thaw and cooks walk-ins as much as possible cuz it feels like im choking on nothing if Im in them too often. It's like ive developed random allergies to the most pointless shit. And I can't take benadryl cuz that's the one drug I decided to abuse as a teen (like an idiot, i should have just vaped) and now my body is unimpressed by the recommended amount yet taking more ignores the Anti Allergen part and skips straight to the Passed Out Asleep At My Desk On Break part.

I wash my hands constantly, change gloves every few minutes basically, and I would wear a mask if the kitchen wasnt 90 degrees and my glasses didnt fog up from them.

Wtf am I supposed to do other than cope lmao </3

I think I need a to take break from this sub... the title sums it up.

The dream: It was the middle of dinner service, the new trout dish is ordered and my mise disappears! Like all of it. I'm running around a huge, unfamiliar kitchen looking for my mise (bc someone probably just moved it?) Borrowing from other stations and prepping on the fly. Other cooks not working dinner service (like banquets n shit I guess) were all around, walking through, moving stuff. I'd turn around and the stuff I just prepped on the fly would be replaced with something else.

There was a younger cook like whoa your gonna make that again right now? As if I had a choice. There was banter. At some point someone turned the lights out over my station which was too big and spread out. So weird.

I'm disabled from chronic illness, I don't work at all anymore and haven't worked the line in a long time. So I guess my question is: what the fuck? Lmao I just wanted to take a nap, I have a fucking headache now.

For context that ceiling is s lot higher than I can reach as I am short and it is above some stairs.

Lol

Dude just walked in with his entire family and is currently wrapping up his meal 😭 I knew he had a house in the county here but I did not expect this.
