i love to cook, i hate the industry

one of the sous chefs where i work said to another apprentice "i don't go out - that's not my job". some folks...

there's not a doubt in my heart or mind that i did the right thing in kicking her out, forcing her to move onward with her life and allowing me to focus on mine. i hope she can find the first few steps. at the same time, lying in bed awake at night, i'm reminded of a richard brautigan poem:

Apprenticeship day 1:
all i can say is, it went well. getting to work at 8am is gonna be a bitch but i can do it. the kitchen at brookridge country club seems to operate in a frenzied madness with no apparent rhyme or reason. i made red pepper aioli, coleslaw, a new york cheesecake, beef stock, bleu cheese dressing, took the trash out and...

ok, one more haiku.
a first impression:
someone called me witty once.
i said 'shut up, fool!'
chef's apprentice internship search day 1:
she told me that i'd want to shave and take out my piercings. i can't really believe that it would matter, i mean, the last time i worked in a kitchen, i had a five inch braid on my chin, and really,...

All you women look the same
From the game that yr all playing
And the motions are...
