Meth Chef at 5: "Hey RCC, I'm outta here, catch you Sunday." 7, lady I've never met, carrying a pizza walks into kitchen. "Is Meth Chef here?" "Uhh, no, he left a few hours ago." "Well I'm his wife, he texted me 20 minutes ago that he was still here!"

Late to the post but just catching up. Winter at a hotel. Sous chef opening for breakfast sets off the fire alarm with the steamers. Something to do with weather and winter and heat thresholds from steam. Hotel's FULL AND BOOKED. something like over 200 rooms. Front desk went 'okay, since everyone got woken up at 530am, anyone who calls in to complain about it gets free breakfast'. Que an entire hotel's worth of people being woken up 2-3 hours early, all coming in at once, all ordering like its free food and going nuts with special requests, and only two cooks on the line. On the plus side, lunch was slow. Though I suppose this is technically an avoidable calamity, it sure didn't feel like it.

As a new resident of CA I have lots of weed in my house. 3 different strains, one indica, one hybrid and one sativa. I don't even smoke weed, but it's important for me to have it available for my guests as part of the bar set up.

They're always the ones who think they work better trashed, and they're the ones I used to end up having to deal with because they dropped a knife through someone's foot or got into a fist fight with one of the customers for hitting on their FoH girlfriend.

When I last went job hunting I only interviewed at places that didn't serve brunch (or breakfast) and asked in every interview if it was ever in their plan to do so. I haven't worked a brunch in 5 months now. No regrets.

Brunch is so drat bad. Half drunk rich people who mod the gently caress out of everything, hungover young people with mush brain who can't figure anything out and almost all of them are in a hurry for some reason. Just gently caress that whole part of the day.

Brunch is the loving worst. I love eating it, but gently caress serving it. It didn't help that the kitchen was, let's say, unreliable about poached eggs.

I say this as someone who cooked professionally for years, but I don't understand how so many people that cook professionally are so bad at cooking eggs. It's one of the easiest loving things to do.

SHUPS 4 DETH posted:nope, and that should be a dealbreaker. it isn't. For God's sake, keep the insurance. It's like having an electric carving knife in your kitchen -- you never think you'll need it, but when you do, you'll be glad you have it. For years and years and years I had been healthy as a horse, hadn't been to a doctor in ages, just flying footloose and fancy-free. Then over the course of three months, I get gradually sicker, eventually losing the ability to walk, with my doctor not having a clue as to what was going on. He finally sent me to the hospital, where they found a dozen pulmonary embolisms as well as deep vein thrombosis in both legs. In short, I was literally days away from dying. Spent almost a week in the hospital, and would have been staring at more than $70,000 of medical bills had I not been insured. Keep the insurance.
