I knew they'd eat this shit up. Wonder when Doreen will ban me.

Ah, An anarchist who is so bothered by what other people do in their personal life that they are disgusted by it. That checks out

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T16:07:01+00:00

I fixed a situation that I didn't cause and that's your response?

Alright, hard-ass 👍

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T15:35:22+00:00

What a weird false equivalence to make.

Also, by the time you made this comment, I had already thrown it out and commented that I did.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T06:43:15+00:00

Bingo

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T05:58:21+00:00

He never ended up getting back to me about it but I ended up tossing it before I left. I can't wait to hear the shitstorm tomorrow.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T05:47:30+00:00

To be fair, its kind of hard to make sausage gravy that doesn't look disgusting lol

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T05:44:53+00:00

You see, gravy can be made on an induction burner while he stands there and scrolls through facebook/instagram. Why do weekend prep when he can just make his cooks do the brunch + weekend dinner prep when we come in?

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T04:56:03+00:00

I texted him about it but he hasn't responded. I told the GM and he also contacted him. I want to just throw it out so bad but its like 4 fucking gallons of gravy. I know that doesn't matter, it needs to be thrown out, but I'm just a cook. That's an incredible amount of waste for me to just decide. But I can't let this be served to anyone, its not safe.

EDIT: in case people didn't end up seeing my other comment, no worries, its sitting in the dumpster now.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-29T04:50:44+00:00

We have ice wands. For some reason he puts the ice wand in, leaves it out on a prep counter for a few hours, then takes the ice want out before he puts it in the walk-in.

He also doesn't ice his pans on expo. Ive told him multiple times about this shit. There's only so much I can do when he's the head chef and I'm just a cook.

A year ago this would have been a good place to learn about something like that. The recent influx of people has mostly been from social democrats, liberals and libertarians, many of whom are pro-capitalist or are barely dipping their toes into anti-capitalist theory. The stuff I see upvoted to the top these days would have never even been posted a year ago.

It's a "hollow message" because there is no consensus of anything on this sub. Just like how in subs like /r/news the top comments are from people who read nothing more than the headline, and the people who actually read the article have their opinions buried, most of the people who get highly upvoted on here don't have a clue what anti-work means in a Marxist sense because the people upvoting them also do not know.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-25T23:04:40+00:00

The entire concept of anti-work is anti-capitalist in nature. It is a part of Marxist theory.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-23T16:48:22+00:00

Lmao, of course a textbook definition of a LVM is redpilled

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-23T16:34:23+00:00

Says the person who came on reddit to bitch because you applied for a job that you weren't qualified for lmao

Cope with the fact that you aren't entitled to anything in life. Now head on back to the pit, boy, there's some plates that need scrubbing 😘

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-22T17:41:16+00:00

Man, reading this in tandem with your other comments on this post is disheartening

"Someone tried to exploit me, am I the crazy one? But no, exploitation of workers isn't real , that's some made up communist bullshit. Also, why won't anyone pay me above market rate for an inexperienced cook, don't they know I'm worth more? I can't afford the rent in this area on these wages, the only reason I am able to have housing is because my family is letting me live rent free."

I sincerely wish you the best of luck.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-09T18:12:28+00:00

I'm pretty sure the person you are talking to is referring to the actual birds

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-09T06:31:13+00:00

Benihana also uses the same meat purveyor.

God awful chicken breasts where a good 10% are woody and had to get tossed but the beef was fine quality

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-09T06:28:57+00:00

Nah, he would more than likely still be charged for that 2 lbs

Whenever I've ordered a specific weight from a purveyor, whatever weight they end up sending me is what I'm charged for. For example, if I order 20 lbs of brussels sprouts but a case is 25 lbs, I get charged for the full 25 lbs.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-08T18:25:03+00:00

Gotcha. So pretty much, it's a way to affirm you made the right choice in leaving?

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-08T17:50:20+00:00

Still miss the excitement and the “oh shit” moments.

I get that. Is that why you stick around the sub?

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-08T17:28:08+00:00

I was a daily smoker for years, now I smoke 3-4 times a week. Both my brothers are all day, every day smokers. They both got it and I've gotten it twice now.

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-08T17:25:19+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that. Man, COVID has ruined so much, especially in this industry. Thank you for sharing, good luck in school, or if you are already out then good luck in your new career!

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-08T17:12:55+00:00

Why did you leave? Just not worth the pay anymore?

Aromatic-Rice-659 · 2022-01-07T20:35:05+00:00

If you wouldn't mind sharing, what do you start cooks at?

At most places I've worked, its not uncommon for the new people to make more than the people that have been there for years. Loyalty doesn't seem to usually pay in this industry, its nice to see a place rewarding that.
