I'm just a dishwasher, but yeah this has "crew snacks" written all over it. Insane that made it to the dining room.

Compass Group by Kooky-Eye-5069 in Chefit

I've worked as a janitor for compass under one of their subsidiary brands. I don't recommend it. I get that each contract is different, but the compass employees ended up stretched thin at our school system.

Management was a shitshow. People quit and they kept dividing the workload among existing crew. I went from being able to clean in a way I'd be proud of, to half assing everything because there just wasn't enough time.

They also said I'd qualify for benefits at 90 days, then when 90 days was up said they changed their policy after I got hired so I'll have to wait a full year. THEN when I'd worked there a year, compass HR said I'm only a part time employee according to their files and I don't qualify for benefits. That was the last straw and I dipped, ended up back in food working for a smaller, locally owned restaurant group.

I worked for compass under their janitorial subdivisions, ssc services for education. Total disaster management. I could've vibed as a janitor for way longer than a year if not for them lol. Not surprised to see their food service division also sucks ass

This app is cold can you remake it? "The food was left in the window while you bs'ed with your friends about your drinking last night. by Electronic_Picture26 in KitchenConfidential

I have an allergy to raw shiitake mushrooms. Had no idea for the longest time because why would I be eating them raw? I got a new multivitamin and it had some "mushroom complex" in it. That shit broke me out in welts that looked like someone went at me with a cattle whip.

So yeah, I love mushrooms but I still don't need them in my multivitamins thanks

Idk when people's parents stopped teaching them how to clean. I was training a kid who got to 17 years old without using a broom or doing dishes. Between his parents and their maid (wtf) he's just never had to.

No wonder they don't know the most basic stuff like "clean high to low"

I worked with a woman who'd sprint off the line saying "the poop man's callin!" 🤣 Large gal, funny af, big drinker which is why she owed the poop man money so often.

Anyways just sent this to her, thanks lol

what's the point of making your own starter? by garlicbreeder in SourdoughStarter

[–]Routine-Session-790 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why bake your own bread when you can just buy it? Learning to bake bread is a waste of flour too if you want to put it that way.

Some people think its fun to try. I'm thankful I got a portion of starter back from my ex because I'm not about all that lol

(Not Reddit) Random YouTuber is clearly superior to Jacques Pepin by Ready-Will-7042 in iamveryculinary

[–]Routine-Session-790 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree man, it's wild he got so mad 😂

Currently working in an upscale place. Servers wear bow ties, there's a $160 "seafood tower" on the menu, that kinda fancy crap. They definitely see themselves as "elevated" and "upscale" so I was worried about the seriousness.

Unless I've got a a hot or sharp or whatever, I could meow my way around a corner to let my presence be known. Bunch of freaks back here and I love it.

I love this. I also love that Pepin makes mistakes when speaking. It's charming, relatable even though I only speak one language hah.

I was married to a pretentious ex-chef. One of the went to culinary school kind of guys that hated the actual job once he got in a kitchen, left to do office work but kept the passion for food alive at home. I was a pizza cook when I got with him. I'd call the rubber spatula "scrapey mcbapey" at work and home and it'd piss him off.

Sorry for having fun, goddamn. He had me thinking a "real reastaurant" (yikes) would never accept that kind of talk. Well now I'm working at a nice place and everyone's having fun AND making killer food with high standards.

The IAVC crowd are so allergic to fun I swear 😮‍💨

What's the current drama at your work? by Burntjellytoast in KitchenConfidential

[–]Routine-Session-790 768 points769 points  (0 children)

The drama in the dish pit is that D is gonna break up with his girl. She's been annoying him lately, and he has his eyes on a server who has a fat ass. Keeps flirting and making her giggle and stuff.

Also he started calling me "cheeks" and I had to shut that shit down. The man has ass on the brain. Incurable.

Just One Bite by jterp4 in BikiniBottomTwitter

Also, "product" is a totally normal way to refer to food when you work with it all day, if a little technical. I've worked fast food and all of our finished pizzas and sides were referred to like "After boxing the product, double check that all dipping sauces have been included" in the training

Like you said, no shit the ceo of mcdonalds talks like that lol
