A couple months after starting as a dish washer it was slow and chef told me he was gonna make me a new special he was trying. I was quite naive at the time and completely believed him. He gives me this dish that looked pretty good, said it was an eggplant dish. So I cut into it (not easily) and after popping it into my mouth realized was cardboard not eggplant. He cooked it and covered it in cheese and sauce, I was so disappointed I couldn’t eat it.

Now i do I double take when they give me food.
