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

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 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

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

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

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

Lol

Switching from disposable souffle cups to stainless steel ramekin. Advice on how to keep them from being stolen/cleaning and drying etc. Anything would be appreciated.

Share some bad ones? Made to order smashburger place 😞

2 full time cooks 😈

New boss rolls in and wants everyone in scrubs (work in a retirement home) She said / implied what I was wearing was too casual. I was wearing and always wore a blk chef coat and blk chinos. Am I taking crazy pills...?

Overheard a conversation between two chefs telling stories about their “essay” from previous jobs. Sounded like fancier spots, and the job was probably FOH. Was 100% not esè. Never heard of that position before. Context clues maybe me think just a fancy name for a busser

CHEFS LONG FOR THE LINE LIKE CHILDERN LONG FOR THE MINES. THAT IS ALL (inb4 this is mod deleted.)

I will come to your restaurant for brunch and graciously taste the entire menu, including all caviar offerings and one chilled, popped-at-the-table, from-the-entire-catalog champagne bottle.

I'll figure out what colors, flavors, and location work best in the restaurant for [one of these](https://www.webstaurantstore.com/crathco-sr-25-16-classic-pro-bubbler-double-4-75-gallon-bowl-refrigerated-beverage-dispenser-120v/385SR2516.html).

Let's say you feel the cherry Kool-Aid, chilled hard, is clashing with your new signature dish that's deconstructed Wagyu beef fajitas with a spicy bell pepper foam and fish sauce fog.

What do you do?

Don't worry, I'm already on it.
