no skills

i can absolutely guarantee that a food worker has more skills than me or literally anyone i know in tech

I just want to use my degree.

wow i can't believe you're so unappreciative of the freedom you have to either do work that isn't rewarding to you or die hungry in the streets. these fucking commies i swear

No real social life.

See no future for self.

If these two were better, maybe the work would be a bit more worthwhile/purposeful.

[-] 2Password2Remember@hexbear.net 12 points 5 months ago

other way around. if the work were more purposeful and worthwhile, you'd see a future for yourself doing that work and you'd have more energy to build a social life. pointless work is soul destroying and has an impact on your whole life

Agitating in a kitchen is a fucking uphill battle, if youre reading this, join your union

This. It seems like most kitchen workers actively work against their own interests, and almost fetishize terrible working conditions. I hate it.

I’m grateful I’ve never had a job as a chef. Shit looks so stressful and I feel like I’ll only be one annoying customer away from throwing him into a vat of boiling oil

I feel this describes where I work. Of course, all the departments smoke though (not me though, my grandparents smoked so much they died before they could collect Social Security-that stuff scares me).

"Can you come in on your day off."

At this point, they just automatically add it to my schedule without even asking me. Hence why I'm working another 8 days straight. Why do I get the feeling that our tub of lard manager is just going to have the new hire fill all the lunch cook spots first, so that the supervisor doesn't have to cook all the time, instead of plugging all openings on my shift.

Prep cooks didn't do shit.

Hahaha, what prep cooks. We have one person who has to cook the entire meal, serve, and wash all their dishes. I think we used to have one of those, like 30 years ago.

Lost love of cooking.

I got one cook who's getting here. Took this position, despite it paying half what he used to make, and complains about having to make food of way less quality and healthiness than what he used to make. And then there's the fact that a fifth of the ingredients are not ordered because our cheap manager is somehow less competent at taking inventory than the blind guy who used to do it before him. (It's not that he's incompetent, it's probably because they give him a bonus for keeping under budget, which is probably why our environmental services department has been understaffed on the weekends for the last 20 years).
