Samizdata posted:It's more a side effect of thread hopping. In another thread, the Enrique thing is used to mock rich people. As in "I don't turn the shower on. I have Enrique to do it." and such. Good thing you don't have to be mindful of context on the internet, huh? Let's denigrate migrant labor (ironically)!

Liquid Communism posted:Pretty much. Had some of the prescribed for a back injury that kept spasmong, and holy poo poo did it turn me into a pile of goo. Do not pass go, do not even reach for the remote because that is too much effort. I had some prescribed for a muscle tear in my groin, and my doctor warned me not to drink on the meds. I did, had the most incredible nap of my life, and quickly got habituated to the sedative nature versus relaxant. When I mentioned to my doc that I didn't stop drinking (heavily), she expressed sincere surprise that I was still breathing. poo poo was rad.

I love this thread but I was a cocktail bartender for a healthy period and martini chat has put me in a space so I'll just offer to fight each and every one of you all IRL if you can make it to Brooklyn before midnight.

It's beautiful. Sickchat: since moving to supply, I still seem to have the turbo-charged immune system that years of working in F&B grants to those who made the correct blood sacrifices.

Willie Tomg posted:The reason it seems all these big names are doing dirt is because when they were small-to-middling names that poo poo was and remains drat near obligatory I am with you, but I gotta re-characterize that last statement. “Obligatory” is closer to “permitted” by which I mean “not actively discouraged by terminations for acts that range from tasteless for a man in power to afflict on people without power to sexual assault”. I suggest the thread to this excellent framing of the “boys will be boys” culture people feel the need to excuse or distance themselves from- https://www.gq.com/story/mario-batali-harassment-response

Thank you for supporting our employees. #bestguests Seize the means of production, collectivize the restaurant. Seriously, this is why people without business degrees running labor and capital-intensive businesses should shut the gently caress up and let PR do their job. Don’t address your guests with sarcasm on the goddamn internet. I hope this putz gets yelped into bankruptcy. bloody ghost titty fucked around with this message at 18:24 on Dec 31, 2017 |

If I know the BoH I’ve definitely hooked the line up in the past, but most places look at you funny if you’re handing a bottle of mezcal off to chef before the meal (which crushed us, shockingly).

Chef de Cuisine, from experience- you are going to crash. Hard. Make sure you have pedialite and flowers for the lady in your life what has been putting up with this, and try to start delegating some responsibility so it doesn’t fall apart while you sleep the sleep of the dead.

I hear “he could have gotten help” and I hear someone who is shocked and angry and understands the mess a life leaves behind. As someone who has stood on the edge of a roof wondering what asphalt tastes like at terminal velocity, may I humbly ask that you take ten minutes, go gently caress yourself, and reach out to someone you know with problems that don’t seem to get better. Rest in Power, chef.

Man I was in the middle of a construction site for a very prominent upcoming opening and I briefly thought “man, I miss the energy and purpose that goes into opening a restaurant, how that clarity makes life so vibrant” and then the lights went off for no reason and I had to turn the water back on to the apparatus I was installing manually and I was all “lolz no, I’m gonna go make dinner for my lady and be in bed by midnight”. Get that health insurance, y’all.

That is my job. Also I’m organizing a skeeball competition. Oh, and did I mention the life insurance? It’s free, and it’s two years of my salary. If I kick it, my cousin gonna buy a house. You wanna get in on the real racket? Get a job with the distributor. Sales is always gonna be the bottom line, so get your commission and go home by 5.

Then I wait to hear if I got my sweet sweet brand job with a 30% increase in pay, big budget and bonuses. If not, I freelance for a few months, finally rest and recharge and travel with my boo. I feel an immense amount of relief. Whoooooooooooooooo I Hope if you’re coming to the dark side it’s with us, but I don’t think so. Fingers crossed either way!
