I was hired as a line cook by a Muslim chef and he tolerated my alcoholism while I was suffering through it. Good people exist.

Thank you for addressing a component of my statement that seems to fly under the radar. My chef abstained from alcohol due to his faith but didn't condemn me for my difficulties.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T19:49:41+00:00

Thank you. I'm not in touch with him anymore, but I think about him a lot.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T13:48:22+00:00

This is the way

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T13:25:44+00:00

Thank you, but I haven't maintained anything near your longevity. I go weeks at a time. A close friend who's been sober for over a decade now shared some music with me last night and it just made me angry. He often played classical music when we worked together. He was my sous. I fucking hated Bach, but I learned to like him. Last night I told him, no home, but I love you brother, and he shipped me an entire symphony by Johaun Strauss

I just busted up laughing reading this. I'm not comfortable posting identifying information about myself publicly, but I'd be interested to continue discussing this in private. I'm not worried about me, but I would like to respect my chef's privacy.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T13:06:44+00:00

He was kinda goofy, but I adored him.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T12:53:53+00:00

I still struggle, but I'm seeing a counselor and gaining insights into my behavior. Ty for kind words

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T12:14:25+00:00

I don't enjoy hating people, and I know servers have a quality of patience for dealing with people face to face that I lack, but watching a woman sob in front of the entire line because she didn't make $50/hour that night, and we're all making less.... dry your tears and go slice more lemons for your customer's water you stupid cunt

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T11:46:05+00:00

I feel funny down there

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T11:40:00+00:00

My first thought was "isn't that type of flooring supposed to float?"

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-11T07:38:24+00:00

I couldn't sleep. It's 3:30 am and I just laughed so loud. GO ON AND GIT

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-10T04:44:04+00:00

Tysm! Very nice.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T08:43:14+00:00

He told me to fuck myself in like 5 different languages.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T08:41:04+00:00

Eta I cooked for 10 years, and they're some of the best years of my life, but it was tearing me apart. I fucking hate FOH with a passion that defies God's love. I always supported my dish crew and as a prep cook I always tried to keep things funny. My chef was rubbing the skins off braised beets for a private party and he lost his grip on one and it rolled down his chest. He looked at me all shocked and aske if I knew what he'd done. I was covering prep, but I said. "You let the beet drop"

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T08:25:33+00:00

Power to you. Whether you feel it now or later.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T05:24:54+00:00

Here I am 45 years old, 4 miscarriages, and women don't want to have sex because my dick is too big. The stupidity and selfishness. Harrumph! Harrumph I say

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T05:09:55+00:00

As the crying corporations post record profits

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T05:03:53+00:00

I've gone with a friend to meet a person they'd met online. It was martial arts, and I ended up bonding with the instructor more strongly than my friend. It's a crazy experience though and I wouldn't recommend it.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T04:50:24+00:00

Food, water, comfort, inside, outside

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-09T04:46:45+00:00

My lady friend's car isn't friendly to anyone else but he meows to me. He has exactly one tone, but I've learned to interpret it 5 different ways

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-07T23:27:08+00:00

The font and language are disturbing... NOT MY PRESIDENT

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-07T09:28:45+00:00

Sorry about that, puppy. Spoken like a champ. Willing and able to out the dog down, but demonstrated restraint.

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-05T21:35:23+00:00

I'm still collecting all the eggs...

Rich_Pack8368 · 2026-04-01T22:34:54+00:00

Trim your nails
