i like cooking people food but jesus fucking christ is it a lot of fucking work

I think if you weren't in a cramped kitchen built to make the most out of space while avoiding safety regulations, the work would be easier. And then throw in the lack of shitty managers, bad pay, and bad schedules, and it seems more doable.

But yes, it's still a lot of work.

It would be a lot easier if

I always knew exactly how much food to make. Which is a solvable problem, it's 2024, it's a fucking school, have these fucking kids sign into an app and hit a button telling us if they're eating in the dining hall and if so, what they think they want. If even a fraction of the students used it (and I mean, ideally force them to use it lol) it would still be better than just basically fucking guessing based on "well there were like 200 people for lunch, and they really like flank steak, so I guess let's make.... 70Ib of it??" but then woops 250 show up because fuck you, you needed 100Ib of it

and

if I didn't have to fucking clean up. After 6-7 hours of chopping shit and cooking I am really fucking tired, my legs hurt, my back hurts, and I cannot stress enough how much I don't want to have to wipe down the tables, clean whatever equipment (flattop grill, fryer, steam kettles, tilt-stirrer, etc) I had to use, and sweep AND mop the fucking floors. I'm fucking tired, fuck. Especially fuck this shit when the other cooks basically don't clean up or clean up shittily
