- Comment on Charities of Employees from "non-profit" I was going to donate too 2 weeks ago:
As a chef with 22 years of experience hiring cooks, there is absolutely a distinction. I would have said fast food worker instead of “cook” because the quotes make it feel condescending, but I also do not count experience in fast food as relevant experience when reviewing resumes for a line or prep cook position.
We’re also misusing the word chef a lot in this conversation. Everyone working the line in a kitchen is not a chef. They are cooks. The chefs are the kitchen leadership. There is typically one executive chef and one or two sous chefs below them. I’m simplifying things a bit but that’s the most common structure you’ll find in non-chain/corpo kitchens.

Correct.

They pay cooks less than $20/hour in a city with an average rent of $3000/month. I’ve got no problem passing judgement.

I’m childless by choice because I don’t like children. I’m happy I don’t have kids because they’d be experiencing this shit storm during their formative years and I can’t even imagine how badly that would fuck them up.

I think spiders are cool. I also have a completely irrational fear of them. I don’t understand it, I don’t have any clue where it came from, but spiders cause me to feel fear in a way unlike anything else in this world. I took it completely in stride when a doctor told me I “might not be ok” while looking at my xrays after a car accident in if I see a spider crawling across the bathroom floor while I’m pooping I’ll break out in cold sweats. I like to think that I’m a pretty rational person so this drives me crazy.

Just curious, where are you going? My wife doesn’t want to move further from her family or we would be in New Zealand already.

A lot of people in that thread have never seen Looney Tunes. If they did, they would have learned 3 vital facts about physics:
-
A finger in the barrel of a gun will stop a bullet and cause the gun to explode.
-
Gravity cannot effect you until you acknowledge that you are not on solid ground.
-
Being crushed by a heavy object falling from a great height (think and anvil or piano) will cause to to collapse like an accordion until you are re-inflated.
These are basic scientific facts everyone should know in the modern age.

Your comment very much reminds me of an episode of 30 Rock in which Liz Lemon starts dressing like an old crone and acting crazy on the subway to secure a place to sit.
