I never worked with any stereotypically fat chefs or cooks

I can tell you that their mortality has nothing to do with their weight though, and everything to do with the insane amounts of drugs that they do while working 10 hour+ shifts until 5am

Some of the best training I ever received in the kitchen was from a coke head from the 1980s. After talking to him for ~5 minutes about his life choices I quit the industry.

when i was 19 i interviewed at a chilis restaurant and they gave me a job in the kitchen 5 minutes in because i was able to explain the difference between a franchies and a corporate chain restaurant. like the manager was legit suprised i guess this was a difficult question for a lot of people

then a bunch of hurricanes hit the area, this was polk county florida, before i even showed up for my first day and i moved to the west coast and will never return to florida again

This is every office job I've worked. I sometimes have to wonder if everyone feels like this and if so how is anything actually getting done.

I got a job in a brand new restaurant once. For those not in the know, they hire like 200 people and then cut it down to like 60 after the first weekend. I had never worked in a resturaunt before, but I quit 3 years later. I suspect it was because I wasn't high as gently caress that first weekend, and could follow basic instructions.

They just use it as punishment in high school because the teachers want revenge for having to read it 3 years earlier.

My old employer assigned tasks to be completed at a rate of X per hour, based on the task, and monitored when you started and completed them, then you had to upload them into a system for performance review. One day they made the mistake of trusting me with a highly complex project, so I lied nonstop for a year and sabotaged all of their automation efforts so I could get away with doing jack poo poo. They figured it out the day after they fired me and started an independent review of my work :lol:

owned, bitches
