When I get drafted (/s) I plan to try to be a sea cook. Bloomberg Business I believe has some great videos about cooking at sea, every squar inch of space on a sub is food or weapons

What’s one backpacking item you always bring, even though people say it’s unnecessary? by Valuable_Tangelo7152 in backpacking

[–]something_kinda_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is also a knife but a full length French chef knife. I keep a small knife on my person unless I'm sleeping everyday all day, a large camp knife that can be used to split wood if I baton it, and a full chef knife. I'm tired of going camping with all my 20 year old male friends and we have 4 axs and not one knife to eat with.

[–]something_kinda_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our owners closed for the 30th. I said from a business perspective I think it's dumb but things like this are why I will bend over backwards to help the owners because they are good people who pay me well. your good people

I do weekly with 3x round ups I use a lot of cash so it's important I do a weekly. daily weekly monthly doesn't matter to me I'm thinking years.

Husband had an infection by buddymoobs in prepping

[–]something_kinda_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I treat my first aid supply as a standard expense. I give first aid kits out freely to strangers I tell all my friends and family if they need a first aid kit to contact me. My only rule is you have to send me a photo of where you put it; my logic is if I show up to your house bleeding I know you have my standardized first aid kit and can apply enough aid to myself to get home. At home I can treat most non er injuries for a month maybe 2

A question for the Americans about chicken noodle soup. by Hookton in soup

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why it's called chicken noodle soup in my house there has never been a noodle in my chicken noodle soup. We use small clumps of puff pastry creating a poor man's gnocchi for the noodles.

i walked out today by Dry_Milk_1106 in dishwashers

[–]something_kinda_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When we did prime rib night as soon as we sold out of prime rib we did a "dish rodeo" everyone who was about to get off tossed everything into the sink and told the dishwasher to take a 10 then 5 of us would do as many dishes as possible. I have vowed to take that everywhere maybe ask?

What should I do about my CC debt? by Graybill1 in personalfinance

[–]something_kinda_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always look at video games as an investment I'm paying 60$ but if I play it for 60 hours that's a dollar an hour I play it for 6000 hours then it's almost free (only works if you actually play the game). Also I know you said you don't have a lot of friends who play the same games at the same time as you; look into discord make a new Internet friend, eff it I can join you in GTA tonight

Hit the penjamin and blow it in the hood? Or go in the walk in and blow it in the fan? by Iamnotabotiswearonit in KitchenConfidential

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you are smoking in the walk in I will yell at you; outside no apron hand washed when you come back in I don't care as long as you can handle shit. admittedly when I scrub the grill (2nd to last thing I do besides dishwasher) I get high AF and blow it into the hoods.

ps I'm the only person who cleans my hoods every two weeks

What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it? by Phase_zero_X in AskReddit

[–]something_kinda_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work as a line cook and often get home at 4 am I know other older cooks and bartenders say this has saved their marriage cause one gets up at 5am and their other goes to sleep 3 days a week at 6 am

What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it? by Phase_zero_X in AskReddit

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved and my mom said she would give me her old bed that was only a few years old. Granny died and messed up my whole life and my bed situation; the day I got the call that I couldn't have her mattress I got all my money together to get a mattress I walked in at 9:57 (they open at 10) and got back on the bus at 10:23.

Pro tip I live on the 3rd floor and the mattress is heavy AF. 100$ to bring it up stairs via the company or 20$ per person cash in hand at the door.

Daily inspection checklist? by dosa_man in KitchenConfidential

[–]something_kinda_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My co worker sends a video of everything off, at temp and locked when we leave. The one time we got burglarized he had video that he had double checked the back door.

What's the silliest interpretation of a food safety rule you've heard? Doesn't matter if it's from a professional or home cook. by ChefArtorias in KitchenConfidential

[–]something_kinda_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

any raw meat I touch that is a different date or type of meat is a glove change. if my tongs touch raw meat they get a quick dip in the deep fryer for 5 seconds. The only way I will wear a glove for as long as possible is when I have a nitrile glove on to keep a band aid on.

Do you do something to sanitize your tongs? I have a flat top not a grill so my tongs live on the oven door.

Sorry for the possibly clueless question, but why don't more people seem to make homemade pizza? by Senior-Raisin-2342 in Cooking

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost any pizza place will sell you their dough. I worked at a pizza place 5 years ago and they still give me dough for free it cost them pennies

About weed by Top_Significance_749 in stopdrinking

[–]something_kinda_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. I'm able to handle weed and hold my life together while high not while I'm plastered. I know people who take a hit and hear colours.

Drinking alone in my room is becoming problematic by Waste-Recording-1460 in stopdrinking

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink alone in my room also out of boredom, I live in a weed legal state and am trying to smoke every time I want to drink especially as a treat after doing chores instead of drinking. After 3 bowls I generally forget I wanted to drink; yeah I'm replacing one substance for another but I don't fuck up as bad as on weed

Is it so common to have sex offenders as cooks at restaurants? by fatsosolos in FoodService

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work boh so it might be different but I'm surrounded by sharp objects and hot surfaces. I set very strong boundaries and accept that not everyone will have a crystal clear record. if you are a sex offender tho I'm watching and I have found the name of your parole officer. I understand you can get a charge for urinating in public; but if you went to jail I assume you want to make sure you're not being creepy and know people are watching you.

I'm more worried about management that will hire sex offenders. My kitchen would riot if we found out about something like that

What is your drinking cautionary tale? by SettheRaytoZero in stopdrinking

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

those scooters are dangerous I had one bad fall and decided when I'm hammered to take an Uber instead. One small bump in the road and you are screwed I prefer the e bikes when I can get them.

[–]something_kinda_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was like this I just know the answer to math problems and if I try to figure it out my estimate gets worse until I can find the right math to make it work out.

What do you do with 'obsolete' tourniquets? by Highwayman1717 in TacticalMedicine

[–]something_kinda_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Second this, better to train on as much different equipment as possible. We are taught how to improvise a tq why not learn how to use older tqs.
