Is making food at a restaurant really so hard that you need to institute a quasi-military structure to get it made?
>>
>>220849240
Blame the French.
>>
>>220849240
if the food you're making requires more than heating up vegetables, boiling a starch, and putting an animal protein to heat then, yes, the process will require a lot of shouting, swearing, and inappropriate sexual advances, especially towards the new waitress. it's just how it is and how it has always been.

>WE NEED TO MICROWAVE MORE SYSCO SLOP, STAT!
>>
>>220849240
Its high pressure because during your rush you're trying to turn over tables as fast as you can.
And you do need a lot of coordination. Say you've got 10 tables of 4 people, you've got to make sure each table has their meals come out at the same time, which means all the different components need to be synchronized.
Its hot, noisy, and when shit is rolling you're not going to get a moment to think for the next 90 minutes.
Also hungry customers are the worst kind of customer.
The only real benefit of working in a kitchen was the booze and drugs and banging the waitresses.

Don't forget the free food.
>>
>>220849240
Yes. You should get a job sometime and find out.
>>
>>220849240
Civies would never get it.
Semper fry
>>
>>220849240
Depends on the restaurant. A small local place it's a bit more relaxed. A high demanding restaurant has more personal often working in a hurry with fire and knives, so yeah, they need structure and strict organization.

FTR, my dad worked at a hospital, managing the kitchen. They didn't have food at demand as a restaurant aside from the specific diets, only high bulk work because they had to deliver food for about 2000 people all at once three times a day. If they didn't have strict organization and distribution of the work, they'd go all mad and couldn't do it.

I was grilling last night. I felt the heat on my hands and face. I felt the smoke fill my lungs. I grew anxious of timing my burger flip just right when it really mattered. I knew one wrong mistake and no one eats tonight. Then I realized I can quit at anytime and order doordash. Unlike you a real kitchen warrior, I felt like a fraud, stolen valor. Thank you again for your service, a civie like me will never know just how hard it is
>>
faggots care that much as they're in faggot central all faggotasing each other in their faggot city settings

burbos and hicks just want crap like the half-naked harlots in the 'what I eat in a day' videos/compilations
>>
>>220849240
jobs are a humiliation ritual, each made needlessly strict, inconvenient, and uncomfortable to the limit of what can be tolerated by employees
>>
>>220850823
It's ok most people aren't cut out for the sizzling trenches
>>
>>220849240
>>
>>220849240
They have to assemble line very few people to survive usually 10 to 16 people at once for each chef. It’s bare bones because the margin for profit are tiny and loss is semi normal even on decent nights. It’s a competition not artistic crap.
>>
>>220849240
Its not so much that making food at a restaurant is hard, more to do with the quality of worker you get at that level. Spics are lazy as fuck
>>
man everyone in boh is a fucking spic now
>>
>>220849240
Dude have you ever tried NOT screaming and firing guns into the air when you see customers lining up?
It's impossible.

The writers of this show really know their shit and must have served time in the deep fryer trenches at some stage.

Im white and own a home. Fake news. But I will take some fent
>>
>>220849240
Working in a kitchen is for the most degenerate of society because they don't know how to stay fucking calm. They are all that can get hired and actually stay. They don't mind fighting if it means they get paid.
>>
>>220851037
no, they’re all working foh
because they can speak english juan, good job fucking up that order a 3rd time in a row
>>
>>220849482
>and banging the waitresses
I banged women at every job I've had. This isn't unique to restaurant work. What you think retail chicks aren't giving it up? Even office women are like that.
>>

If you were in any way competent I wouldn't have to be on your ass.

I've seen mexicans work 10 hour shifts and still want to hang out afterward. You're delusional.

So you post a busser?

Just put the cold plates in the microwave for 15 seconds, lmao. It's not that hard
>>
>Watching those Bon Appetit videos of michelin star restaurants
>They really do scream YES CHEF at the top of their lungs every time the head chef tells them to do something
Those head guys must go on crazy power trips sometimes.

There's exactly one episode (the first) where they show him under tension and then ooooo secret money,next episodes are all about gay little drama over nothing and a BBQ episode where nothing happens,felt like an extremely boring slice of life anime so I dropped it HARD,why do you keep making this thread after all these years?
>>
>>220851206
Even you trannies have an ego and you live with your mom. It isn't that weird.
>>
I’d love to join in on this meme but it is genuinely shitty work and I quit the one job I had in a restaurant after two weeks lol

People who have never worked in a restaurant don't understand how genuinely stupid a lot of people are. The structure is the only thing that keeps everything from falling apart. You can't trust most people who work in the industry to think on their feet.
>>
>>220849240
Yes, for maximum efficiency because rent is astronomically high.
>>
>>220849240
..... yeh
>>
Yes.
>>
The product needs to be made on the spot and be ready as quick as possible.
>>
>>220849240
No, you just need to institute a quasi-military structure when your entire workforce consists primarily of double digit IQs too retarded to get a better job.

this show was so much better when it was a small time sub type restaurant, becoming about fine dining basically killed all relatability and made the whole focus something that is unpleasant to partake in. I wanted the warzone suicidal addict regular restaurant meme

No, It's just the French autism kicking in which is like German autism but way more gay.

as a fellow busser, I'm both impressed at the speed and put off by how hard he's trying
>>
>>220849240
Imagine going through all of that abuse and hardship just so you can work at a fancy restaurant making food for rich people
>>
>>220852992
Theres a gratification of knowing that what you made makes people happy and fulfilled https://youtube.com/watch?v=59jp0gJkdOg&list=RD59jp0gJkdOg&start_radio=1&pp
>>
Yes, but only because the workers are drugged out freaks who need to be constantly yelled at.
>>
>>220849240
Yeah, kinda because kitchens are full of addicts and fuck ups who need to be treated like children because they are.
>>
It's because most cooks when the French brigade system first began were veterans and thus it was natural for the kitchen to be set up like a military unit.
Also being a chef was always a shit job and so only attracted people who needed a lot of discipline
It's persisted to this day because it works
Personally I've only ever worked in one restaurant like that though, in my country most restaurants have moved on from it but idk what it's like in America
I heard a lot of people are obsessed with the title 'chef' and say that only one person gets to be called chef which seems hilarious to me
>>
>>220849240
Yes
>>
>>220851146
>hard job
>performative overaction while not actually bussing the fucking table properly
I’d fire this crackhead
