I was a chef for years and hated it, worse thing I ever did, DON’T DO IT!!

I think you cooked for my school

I check this vid 7yrs ago and I became a head chef. Now 12yrs experienced and i found that I lost bunch of friends….

This is the perfect video presentation!

Suck

We come for inspiration, not idiocy.

It might be a vacation for me. I spent 34 years OTR driving. 🤣😂🤣

If you want to stay broke for the rest of your life become a chef coz most of them are alcoholics drug addicted or divorced

I think a lot of us like the idea 💡 of making great meals that everyone is impressed and amazed by. But the working life of the chef 👩‍🍳 does not seem appealing if you look at it as a whole. You definitely mentioned the drawbacks. I guess another option might be to be a private cook 👩‍🍳. But you may end up having to hire a staff depending on the demand you get.

Sounds terrific when do I start. My boss better be lucky I’m a masochist

I’m not a chef anymore I finally out 8 months ago

Aaand subscribe.

Are you talking in logical inverse? wow crazy!

I was 18 right out of high school and cooking 65 hours a week making $12 an hour but the experience was priceless.

I watched a video of being a hair dresser the first time and that idea gone after I got anxiety I said nope but this one.. Let me go there even more idk how but well I get to skip family events so a plus

wait wait wait this can actually be golden!

So - terrible working conditions, no flexibly in time off/leave, expected to work weekends, nights and 50 hour weeks with being paid for 37.5, and top of that we get laughable pay? Sign me up!!

I feel wierd that this doesn't discourage me

what is good to follow, western/french cuisine or western/Italian cuisine

In my mind i want to persue law thats my dream but in my heart i want to take culinary arts i want also to fulfill my dream in cooking and to be a chef

Work smart not hard…..

But if you love it, you love it!

Yes

Being a chef is one of those careers where you MUST have a passion for in order to succeed and be happy. The kitchen is pretty much you new home and you have to love what you do more than how much you get paid.

You have me reasons not to be a chef💀,nah fam I’m good

its the presentation that i like about this... it doesnt look boring when its served, and how much could you sell that for if you had your own restaraunt, maybe depends on the location... im 37 and im starting a chef course next year for three years, by the time i get to 50 il still probably be making carveries and on minimum wage, but then we could make some new recipes and still even then i wont be anywhere near this level on here, i dont know what im saying i think im just fantasizing over becoming a chef and making new recipes for loads of posh women and filling the restaurant out with a few neon lights and lasagne and maccarroni ...

this guy's like the opposite of a motivational speaker

Yikes

More or less right depending on the country your a chef in. Im based is South Africa and im a trainee that just finished a course in an culinary institute and require industry experience to take a trades test for my qualification and he has it on point from where im standing.

Have been a chef for 8 years. Suggestion from me is not to be a chef. 1. Unhealthy working hours,you gotta work most of the weekends. What about you family? 2. Abusive working environment, chefs in higher position normally can't not afford to treat line cook nicely. Whatever non-sense that is, you can only replay "Oui Chef" and do it. From the mistakes that is made by the front of house to some wanker customers' request. Also the politics in the kitchen. Yes,baby, you gotta suck it up. 3.lowwwwwww pay! Be a responsible adult, make enough money for yourself and your family. Stop using "passion" as an excuse to cover up a person's dumb choice. What about when you need money to buy a house, pay for bills or pay the medical treatment for your families? Passion is fuel to pump you and it will definitely run out. 4. Physical work. Can you still carry 30kg stock pot without doing your back when you are 45yo? If not, what you are gonna do when you are too old to work in a restaurant but still need income? Guy allow me to introduce you, some terms in negotiation and statistic, is "Framing" and "base rate". Every time I heard about people saying why you need to become a chef is all those small frame thinking ( which can only be prove right in very minor cases) and disproportionate base rate, which are not logical and rational. I love cooking so I quite my software engineer to become a chef, now I'm leaving this job. Can we stop sugar coating how fascinate is chefing. The whole industry is full of uneducated people, rude and dumb. A smart person will chose their career and the environment where they in wisely. Everytime I talk like in a kitchen, my partner has to remind me, do not bring the language home. How pathetic that I know it is not good but can't stop it from influencing me. If you really like cooking, go get a good job. Buy some proper equipment and cook for your friends and families at home. At the end, remember that, you are only as good as the last service. Can't be as good for that long? Then quit.

why i feel when i am looking you i am seeing a japanase and a american persone at the same time, in one body.........

Big Ups

Nvm I was really interested in a chef career but I’ll just stick to electrician

🤣

Me before watching this video:"I WANT TO BE A CHEF" Me while watching this video:"I MEAN...I STILL WANT TO BE A CHEF" Me after watching this video:" UHM...YEAH...ABOUT BEING A CHEF..."

This kinda ruined me I’m excited to cook and eventually become a chef. So you’re saying I’m gonna be a slave to my craft? That sucks wtf. I like vacations and travel and spending time with hookers too.

Best laugh in a long time 😍☠️🤪

After 22yrs working as a professional cook, I had my kids couldn't always be there for them like I wanted so I changed my career. Even though I loved the insanity of it all, it just wasn't very rewarding and it broke my family because I am a single mom. I wouldn't suggest this. Especially for us females, I had a lady supervisor cooked for 40yrs and never became a chef.

You know what i was working in a law firm as Admin assistant in thailand 9-5 job. It was very boring and it drains my brain and i got HB. so i need exercise, i went to a night shift job at a vegetarian resto, as a helper in the kitchen, damn! The rush, the adrenaline, the heat i mis it.

Ohh! .....Sarcasm

Dalstrong is rebranded trash

I love feeding people. There is something exhilarating about a perfect service of 400 in 5 hours. We'll if I want people to eat, it has to be good and good for you. Love is the main ingredient always. All dishes get a side of wit and charm. And I once learned the even the exec chef has to answer to someone. A great chef knows great ideas can come from anywhere. The dishwasher had a good idea. Well try it out. But can you recreate it Welcome to the thunderdome

SOLD. Can't scare me with a good time.

Everything is battlefield I'm ready for it baby

Being high at work and doing lines of the waitresses ass
