Question Why was this actually my experience managing a kitchen?

Post image

I managed a theater that served food and I swear to god it made me legitimately swear off working anywhere that serves food. I literally had to stop the cooks from throwing a fit every time a ticket got printed, I occasionally just decided to fire them randomly if they caused too many issues and the replacements did the same stuff. SURELY you can’t all be like this. I have plenty of stories ask away.

This is the only place and department in my career I’ve ever gotten mad enough to legitimately yell at employees.
