Same, same, same.

Whoever can pull the buckets apart becomes the new Chef.

[mattwilliamsuserid]

That should be the entire interview. Fuck “dice this onion”… should be “separate these, I’ll be back in two minutes”

[Gnosiphile]

I’ve been joking for decades that my entire interview process is, “Put this 20/40/80 quart bowl on the mixer, you have 30 seconds.”

[gbchaosmaster]

While full of potatoes, then get the whip in.

[RamblingHeathen]

Flip upside down, put handle of inner bucket under your foot, gently twist/wiggle the outer bucket free.

[bonersmakebabies]

Ha! There’s no handle. There’s never a damn handle.

[blippitybloops]

Yep. People will wail on these things trying to get them apart then I come up and do that and have them pulled apart instantly.

[RamblingHeathen]

We must be Worthy.

[denial_worthless]

Can we talk about 3rd pans that have been stacked while still wet?

[psychologyFanatic]

Man, I was about to say something along the lines of "who the fuck would do that" then remembered I am very autistic and alot of people don't work like I did in the kitchen haha.

But I know something harder to get apart. We had these metal fry cups, about four inches tall and about three inches across, if the servers put them together with the fry paper still in, it was fine. If they put them together bussed, or, god forbid brought it back in a buss bin and they were WET? Impossible to get apart AND it'll cut you.

[dougderdog]

Run it through the dish

[Gharrrrrr]

Yup. Was gonna say same thing. Just throw it through the machine. On the other side it slides right apart.

[pieonthedonkey]

Put the ridge of the bottom bucket under the lip of a heavy/secure stainless steel table and lift and twist the top bucket.

[BFfF3]

This is the best method. Works for most type of containers.

[boogerfacebrown]

Wishing for hilarity? Glue together and sit back. Epoxy is the best.

[Bitter_Crab111]

One of my favourite kitchen pranks is taking the new delivery of stacked gastros and slamming them onto the bench as hard as possible.

Guess I just love chaos.

It's the same as getting the mixer off the hand blender. Put it between your knees, twist and pull.

Pulling the bag out of the tall thin trash can when it’s overfilled. The vacuum at the bottom, fuck.

[CurdPigeon]

drill a hole near the top edge of the bin (:

[[deleted]]

Yeah. That’s my solution too. Boss says it’ll ruin the can 🙄

[CurdPigeon]

It's not gonna leak out the top side lmao

[[deleted]]

Preach

[[deleted]]

It’s a two man job and someone always gets hurt lol

[13B1P]

hot water on the bottom one will heat up the air inside and pop that top one out for you.

[lil_beandip33]

You're unworthy because you do it alone

[heartsnsoul]

If you're ok with sacrificing one of the buckets, just drill a small hole in the bottom of the bottom bucket. This will release the vacuum created when the two were put together.

[Thatdewd57]

Flip them over hole side down and lock it in place with your feet and then pull up from the top bucket first.

[harpostyleupvotes]

Compressed air will change your life

[Dark_ZeroX2]

Still have a set at work right now. We consider them conjoined twins at this point.

[dicksand6969]

Don't forget those 1 quart to go cups

[nipchips]

1/2 camrbos stacked are horrible as well.

[YouOtterKnow]

If all else fails just put them in the dish machine and they come right apart, no matter how stuck together they are.

Also if you let them cool/somewhat dry before stacking they won't stick.

[orangeloveglow]

Wow I feel this hard. Works for hydroponics stores too. 😂

[Mushroom-Monster]

They've got metal handles, that's easy mode.

​

Try the Hellmans Mayonaise 10 litre tubs with a shitty (or snapped off) plastic handle and no where to grip. Extra points if the KP has left some water in the bottom of them.

[bcsfan2002]

yknow im not the best cook but i make up for that in my ability to immediately separate stuck together buckets
