Ugh, I knew posting my "hey, what if I Joan of Arc'ed" idea would cause turmoil. I'll just shut up and go back to the kitch --- WAIT A SECOND

Someone literally just posted that they would hire a woman over any man. That's dumb as gently caress. Edit: and if for some reason I need to defend being feminist, 75% of chefs I trained under were women and I've hired plenty of women. But hiring someone BECAUSE they are a woman is not progressive.

Great, that's literally what sexism is, and the opposite of feminism. Men and women can both be lovely or great employees and choosing who you hire based on their genitals is sexist as gently caress. pile of brown fucked around with this message at 05:39 on Feb 11, 2020 |

Can we get back to less controversial topics like how much BOH sucks and how much FOH rules? A little more seriously: I think the people saying they'd hire women over men are mostly talking about back of house, which is a very male dominated area and they are being hyperbolic because they've likely seen a poo poo ton of sexist poo poo happen back of house, and also a ton of sexual assault happen back of house. Not to say the harassment or assault doesn't happen up front either, just no one loses out on a job waiting tables for being a woman

Explain how, I'm genuinely interested how you can determine someone's hirability based on their sex without being sexist. Edit: I hire in back of house, and I've hired qualified female candidates who have applied, but I don't sort candidates by sex because that's both a) sexist, and b) a stupid thing to do Edit 2: how is maintaining a sexist hiring practice helping to end sexist culture in BOH? pile of brown fucked around with this message at 05:51 on Feb 11, 2020 |

It's a good thing I've nothing to do with hiring and hopefully never will. Sorry to get folks all wound up. That said, let's hash out what's worse. Valentine's day or The last Friday of Restaurant Week.

Tails on shrimp in tossed, heavily sauced pasta. Surgery with knife and fork, wasted protein and a pile of shell fragments. I don't understand. I don't understand. Anne Whateley posted:Agreed. If it's something like shrimp cocktail, leave the half-tails on for a handle. If it's a shrimp boil, leave on all the heads and legs and everything, I don't care. But if it's in pasta, gently caress that, I don't want to reach into my pasta and get sauce all over my hands every two minutes.

I can understand this position without agreeing with it. A woman in a kitchen (that's good) HAS to be driven and kick a lot more rear end/haul a bunch more weight to get recognized in the industry; if they have experience, you know they've earned it. But I also think its equally biased to go 'there are lazy kitchen workers that exist, most cooks are male' and leap of logic that to 'dudes tend to be lazier'. What's even more concerning to me is that this viewpoint seems to work for them; and is thusly reinforcing itself, even if its rooted in wrongness. Sextro posted:

Had a 45 top doing all you can drink on Friday. The first order was for 42 of our draught beer and 3 oolong teas which kinda made me laugh for some reason. I just barely survived.

Edit: I would take someone out to a restaurant during restaurant week, I would never eat out on Valentines, if my better half can't cook I can make something pretty good myself and we can either stay in or go to a bar or a club after.

Geez Louise, I didn't think my post would start this big of a slapfight. Sorry, posters/mods. A place I applied for couple months ago to be a cook (I really like their menu and looks like a promising venue) just posted a CL ad looking for a dishwasher. I'm no stranger to dishpit, and I loving need the money. How do I sell myself to this place? Like, I want to say "I will basically do anything short of sucking cock, please just give me a paycheck" but looking so desperate (which I am) ain't a good look either.

Tell them you have experience and are willing to do whatever needs to be done. After that it's just a matter of proving yourself. You might be stuck in the dishpit for a bit but so be it. If you need the money then you need the money.

Whether you'd make preference to a woman hire over a man is simply if you believe in affirmative action. I would hire a not white male given two otherwise equal candidates and call it progressive. Similarly people like my boss think white men are UNDER ATTACK and will give preference to me and other pasty white dudes even if we are underqualified. It's NOT RIGHT that there are MINORITIES in HARVARD. You'll find more of the latter in small towns ime.
