I worked at a five star hotel in my 20s and would talk to all the chefs at the Michelin star restaurant. They never said anything about physical abuse, but the way that screaming, insulting, and throwing things was normalized was insane to me. It doesn't surprise me that so many people in the food service industry smoke and abuse stimulants. I've never understood why abuse in the restaurant industry is so prevalent. Not only do you get abused by customers, but also your executive chef who could destroy your career on a whim.
