How accurate is The Bear to working in a kitchen?Also, food service thread.
>How accurate is The Bear to working in a kitchen?0%The dumbest scene in the show is when the magic black girl turns on the doordash machine and it gives them a lot of tickets, and the whole staff freaks out about this. Then, after getting funding for the restaurant, instead of just turning on the doordash machine and hiring more staff... they decide to scrap the restaurant which can make money for a fine dining concept.This fine dining concept is going to be staffed by the same crew who can't bang out 50 tickets.Any wagie who even works fast food or fast casual bangs out more/bigger tickets in a single day. When you get to catering orders you can be preppping thousands of items. This doesn't stop the restaurant from ALSO doing doordash, uber jeets, etc.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh we have to make 40 snadwiches these CIVILIANS DON'T UNDERSTANDahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
>>21572884kek that was my thread, I'm glad people still enjoy that post
>>21572888based plagiarist
>>21572870As a chef I can vouch for the show. 100% real.

>>21572870"Cooking" and "Restaurant" movies are some of the most boring, god awful drek to watch. Holy shit they are baaad.Who fuckin cares if they're accurate. I can tell you now that yes, it's hard. Is it scream and cry and piss yourself like a baby hard? No. Thats probably 90% of those films. High drama for no reason is gay and disingenuous.
>>21572904AAAURUGHUGHUGUGUGUH YOU MEAN I HAVE TO COOK FOOD IN THE JOB I GOT IN A KITCHEN NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i dreaded every car that pulled into our parking lot. it's really demoralizing
>>21572905Lmao exactly. Drama like that is gay as fuck.
>>21572906you still do because you're still a wagecuck
i worked in fine dining for almost ten years and can say it is army prison levels of dramatic gay and retarded, havent watched this show but if its dramatic gay and retarded id say theyre giving the industry a fair representation. >its a sandwich standthe right kind of gay retard influencing the right crew of fatherless dickriders can even cultivate these levels of intrigue and drama at a simple sandwich stand
>>21572870>food service thread.I decorate cakes for $17/hr. The amount of first world issues with customers is mind boggling sometimes.
>>21572904 this
>>21572941it's sideways
>>21572945>it's sidewaysLet me be a dirty phoneposter in peace dammit
>>21572948looks good
>>21572884they could just set an order limit per person
>>21572952Thanks. Petite fudge crown. Choco cake with fudge between. Fudge iced and choco buttercream rose. Toasted almonds was a custom request. I hate doing the torte version.
>>21572948how much does the customer pay for this?
>>21572968i've never eaten at a fancy place but i think that's why they require reservations, helps keep food cost down
>>21572993The petit is $11.99. The almonds weren't an extra charge.
I work in a restaurant but I'm new and idk if it's that relevant to my experiencesAs a kitchen hand I related to the bit where the dishwasher complains about them leaving the labels on the containers though
>more trash pushing skin graffitiJust buy shit and cook it yourself lol
https://voca.ro/18WueHgPDvpL
>>21572870most inaccurate thing for me is that the employees seemed to care so deeply about the restaurant succeeding. in reality MAYBE the right hand guy actually cares (and usually because they actually may co-own).
>>21572968They do. They're all having a psychotic meltdown because their sandwich shop has 40 customers buying a sandwich each.
>>21572948Now its upside down mate
>>21574140Happy birthday to the ground?
>>21574143You're just taking the piss, arentcha
>>21572870I only worked in kitchens for 4-5 years so I could be wrong but the constant tardscreaming is not realistic at all in my experience. Things can get a bit tense and dry during big rushes but that shit was ridiculous
>>21574149https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DH6WUr5tfw4
Pretty accurate
>>21572882Up until season 4 (or late season 3) isn't that kind of the point? Carmy swaps out the menu every fucking day and is concerned with giving everyone a unique and perfect experience without thinking about it as a business or a functional atmosphere.It's not about the story of a successful, well thought out restaurant. It's the story of a chaotic artist trying to leverage the restaurant to fulfill every narcissistic art project he comes up with.
>>21574460Nah, it's a story about a guy picking up the pieces after his brother killed himself because he was 100k in debt. To his uncle. But he wasn't in debt. The money was hidden in tomato cans. The tomato cans that were in the basement the whole time. And he wrote a note saying the money was in the cans but the note fell down a hole. So the brother could have paid the money back at any time.This is litterally the plot BTW outside of the shouting and screaming.
>>21572888Fuck off back to social media, this is not a space for your personal ego you fucking faggot.Nice trips, hope you have a nice day.
>>21574453Why do the most stressed out retards like to make a habit of putting themselves in stressful situations? I used to enjoy the line getting backed up, it was a like a fun game of figuring out what bits and pieces I can assemble first to unclog things and get them moving again. And if it didn't slow down, that just meant the shift would fly by quicker. It's just a restaurant, not a hospital, fucking relax.
>>21574808>Why do the most stressed out retards like to make a habit of putting themselves in stressful situations?not everyone works at an applebee's like you where no one gives a fuck
>>21574453im going to order club sandwiches every chance i get to make the little wagie in the back panic and lose years of his life
>>21574453>hey boss, we either need another cook or a sandwich line because these clubs are so popularall it takes
>>21574864>boss says no because they always do
>>21574899then find a new kitchen to work in
>>21574829I worked at a Gyu Kaku in San Diego. It got plenty stressful, but the ones that thrived were the ones that could laugh and have fun instead of freaking out and getting drunk in the parking lot mid-shift. Don't be a fucking pussy, or find a different job if you can't handle stress.
>>21574453>writes 2 paragraphs crying what a pain making club sandwiches is>in the 3rd paragraph he’s wondering why people dont just make them at homeSmartest kitchen slaveI always order them if they’re on the menu especially if it comes with fries, love me a good club sandwich
>>21574453>unhinged rage over utterly meaningless petty nothings >frequent references to hard drug use Chefs can never tell us these dumb shows are inaccurate because they really are like that
>>21574478So does the bear find the tomato money? Is the uncle paid off? Is the show now over and complete?
>>21575022Carmy was never the bear. The black girl is the bear. That's the finale of the show.
>>21574453Clubs are kinda annoying but only because where I work we have to line each piece up on a single skewer for presentation purposes.
>>21575023I didn't watch the show. Does the chef brother guy find the money? Is the uncle paid?
>>215728700%. No chef gets pissy about taking shit out for example. Less work? Good for him then. That's less to prep. No chef is standing around screaming that some dude asked for no mushrooms and flipping out. Whoever wrote this show has never worked in a kitchen ever.
>>21575016Yes they can. Im telling you now, for example. Waiting is much more accurate to restaurant life. Not 100%, but exponentially more than this dumb ass boring show
>>21574989It's a pain when you have other dishes to make. It's not a pain when you don't.
>>21572941>>21572948Do you see this? Are you fucking BLIND? I will unironically have you fired for this. UNACCEPTABLE. You should be ashamed. How are you not crying with embarrassment right now? Truly. I really want to know. No, I really want to know. How do you sleep at night? I wouldn't serve this to my DOG. My Guatemalan nanny does better work than this and I sure as fuck don't pay her as much as I pay you. Fuck I'm literally shaking, get the manager before I say something I'll really regret.
>>21575195Women do really say and do this
>>21575207OK, how you know?
>>21574453>hardest thing on planet Earth to make>"doesn't take any cooking skill!"Which is it?
>>21575210I have ears and eyes
>>21575195>Uppity white Karen screechingNah my stores in the hood, all the white people are really nice. Besides who'd complain about extra nuts. Same customer has an order for next week I need to add the almonds to a different cake. Will post if I remember then.
>>21575218TBF, "hardest thing" doesn't necessarily mean "requires the most skill," it can also mean something that's simple from a skill perspective but just arduous and grueling. But he's still being a hyperbolic faggot though
>>21575241Bitch ass wrong image
i just *shoots up heroin* get stressed out so much *drinks booze, poorly manages personal finances* at my high octane stressful job!! *is thinking about his full sleeve tattoo that will set him back $5000 while complaining about not making the rent he spent on cigarettes*How dare you order a club sandwich on the menu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is the guy in OPs picture ethnically Jewish? I feel like the whole tv show is one giant psyop to try to show you that jewish guys can look white and be attractive.
>>21575235>I hang out with womenYeah, OK dude
>>21575249What's your ao3 handle?
>>21575033It gets stupider anonCarmy finds the cashUses it to upscale the restaurant to get a Micheline star to fulfill the black girls 'desires' and to prove his capabilities to run a Micheline star restaurant without crashing out to himselfAfter spending all the cash, he asks the same uncle for more cashIts garbage after s1 and I hate that ive seen till season 3
>>21572941YOU SURE DO CHARGE FIRST WORLD FUCKING PRICES, I EXPECT A FUCKING FIRST WORLD CAKE MADE BY FIRST WORLD HANDS. OR ELSE GO OUT OF BUSINESS, I DON'T GIVE A SHIT, YOU THINK I'M NOT 10X HAPPIER GETTING A CAKE AT A FUCKING GROCERY STORE? YOU THINK I COME ALL THE WAY OUT TO YOUR LITTLE FUCKING CAKE BOUTIQUE BECAUSE I LOVE TO GET RAPED AND SPIT ON BY YOU? AND HAVE YOU LAUGH AT ME BEHIND MY FUCKING BACK WHEN I LEAVE?
>>21575659>I DON'T GIVE A SHIT, YOU THINK I'M NOT 10X HAPPIER GETTING A CAKE AT A FUCKING GROCERY STORE? YOU THINK I COME ALL THE WAY OUT TO YOUR LITTLE FUCKING CAKE BOUTIQUE BECAUSE I LOVE TO GET RAPED AND SPIT ON BY YOU? AND HAVE YOU LAUGH AT ME BEHIND MY FUCKING BACK WHEN I LEAVE?I'm a decorator in a grocery store. Simmer down now
>>21575710Anon, if miss Donna summers name was in the phone book, HOW would it appear?
the show is awesome just skip every time they aren't talking about food/the restaurant or preparing food and whenever the sister or mother is in the picture
>>21572870I don't understand why Hollywood insists on glamorizing and dramatizing wagie jobs like restaurant work. It's all because of that nepo baby Bourdain. Here is working in a restaurant >1. it gets busy>2. It's hot>3. You work with a lot of felons>4. You work with people who possess little education>5. You work with illegals >6. You work with people who are barely functional addicts >7. Your coworkers are often intoxicated on the job >8. Like all service industry jobs the customers suck>9. Like most jobs, management sucks>10. Like most jobs, you're under staffed >11. Your coworkers are often unreliable and there is high turnover
>>21575839Half of those are wrong. You've only read memes of what work is like. no first hand knowledge whatsoever. But keep telling us what work is like, neet. Surely the neet knows
>>21575986I know from personal experience working in restaurants they're not wrong. Sorry to burst your rose tinted wagie bubble.
>>21575986They're 100% accurate. Getting people to show up on time and do what they're paid to do shouldn't be hard but it is. >Yeah bro, my car broke down so I can't come in to work>No problem, tell me where you live and I'll pick you upNo reply
>>21572870Dishwashers are chefs.
>>21575839this guy is such a faggoti bet he can't avoid having a heart attack if he goes out of his house without a watch or a designer t-shirt onand he has the gall to call other people not men for cookinghe would crumble and break down crying if he had to work a real job, no wonder this fucking pussy is in jail for rape
>>21572870>twats aboundNot enough Spanish or Polish or heavy drug use.
>>21576087Working sucks I know thats news to you
>>21576368But he's right, a significant portion of the suck at your average workplace comes from other people being unreliable assholes
>>21575839lmao entirely accurate
>>21575839>BourdainIt was White who brought the screaming crazy chef who is obsessed with his work and all fucked up because if it to popular imagination.
>>21575839It's because being a chef is one of the few non wagie jobs out there still where you can get in with no degree and work your way upProgramming used to be another
>>21576007I doubt it. Though maybe thats you only worked at shit holes cuz that's the quality of person you are. In which case I see why you can only see trash from where you are. Hope things improve for you>>21576087Yeah. I agree. That happens way less with illegals than it does Americans. I showed up once with walking nmeunonia i didn't know I had, so i dont get nkt showing up to work, but i see it more with kids your age. Most of the rest, unless your experience is in a waffle house and not a competent place, are not common at all. But go have your fun, im sure you dont let reality effect the things yoi decide to believe
>>21575839Despite the fact that moving your ass to an restaurant and waiting for something you cannot control to ingest is way worst ROI as food DIY he is the typical idiot knowing the price of everything but the worth of nothing, Time is money but money can't buy time.
yes chef
>>21572948Really beautiful, how do you achieve the swirl on top?
>>21577908Eat a lot of fiber first
>all the hasbeens in thread who couldnt manage a simple fast service restaurant
>>21577908I use a speed icer tip to cover with fudge and then use a rounded spatula to drag upwards at an angle and into the center.
>>21572870It's not, it's more like a low level malaise.The only screaming profanity is gonna be if someone accidentally burns themselves.
>>21572870I would honestly watch the BEER!
Why do restaurant employees act like a 5 hour shift of chopping and sauteeing is hard prison time or some shit
>>21577952Awesome, thanks!
>>21577918>Yeah, I used to be a chef at Wendy's. Hard racket...
>>21577984>Why do restaurant employees act like a 5 hour shift of chopping and sauteeing is hard prison timeHave you not worked in the service industry before? A good chunk of your coworkers are gonna ex-cons or drug addicts.
>>21574079This is very funny.
>>21578420In 13 years ive encountered this twiceGet a life outside of 4chan, if not for yourself to help your terminal condition, for everyone else around you so you're less of a miserable twat.Shit, one guy i worked with who did dish got his doctorate in neuroscience and fucked off ti Amsterdam. Meanwhile, you're a neet with a really weird complex
>>21577955Well, sometimes when you sing the fuck song before guests are let in, but thats not as common
