God damn it I hate door dash! This is literally a catering order, not something you put through door dash last minute.
This came in as soon as I opened to work a solo double at the food truck I work at. The door dash delivery driver showed up 12 minutes early and started hounding me to get it done faster, I literally told him "you need to wait, you don't understand how this is fu***ng my whole day up" while thinking this f**k is going to get a $30 tip to drive this food 5 minutes when it took me 40 minutes to put the order together and I'm getting no tip. 12 hours of a shift later and I'm still pi**ed off about it.

Starting my first kitchen job are these good knives for a high volume prep cook?

"Roux" for sausage gravy. I hate this place
Normally this is made in a tilt skillet by simmering the sausage, onions, butter, and bacon fat together before adding the flour and turning off the skillet for 15 min to "toast" it. Today, pastry was using it so here's some playdough in the rondeau instead.

Any good cook knows that this much roux is enough to make 10 billion gallons of sh*tty gumbo, so I'm sure you're curious on the recipe yield. My friend, it is 6 gallons of the sweetest, oiliest, unseasoned gravy you've ever tasted. Now I know it's supposed to be mixed with cream when it's warmed up for service, but it still tastes like I'm shoveling spoonfuls of gruel into my mouth. Where's the pepper? Where's the herbs? WHERES THE FU***NG SALT?!?

FBD and chef get pissy if I change the recipes, so I have to blaspheme my southern ancestors every time I prep this. Sucks to know I can both out cook and out bake my supervisors while they sit on their asses and demand I do my job better and faster no matter how much better and faster I get.

Edit: to clarify, this wasn't done when I took the picture. Besides that fact, it's fu***ng impossible to cook it anyway because there's so much goddamn flour and not enough fat. I just follow the recipes because I don't care enough about the restaurant to make them better

I think we should be allowed to fight 1 customer a day.
I Was so flabbergasted that I forgot to split it.

Edit: Just for clarifications sake, the guest wanted our carrot cake without the cake, so they asked for a wedge salad base dressed up like a carrot cake

Had some regulars come in that always take good care of me.
I had them a few months ago come in for the wife’s 50th birthday and they left me an extra $2600 on top of the $1800 grat they had. But there was 3 of us on that party. So the other night they came in with a smaller party and took great care of me again. Just happy I had a good night for as slow as it was.
