Your Day

OccultHawk · 03-27-2019, 06:07 PM

My direct manager got promoted so one of my coworkers got promoted to manager.

One of my jobs is to make crab cakes. Crab cakes are labor intensive af and surprisingly hard to get right. There’s a very narrow sweet spot between too runny and too much panko (bread crumbs).

So the new manager takes like an hour to retrain me on these things and he adds two quarts of panko to a recipe that makes about 70 three ounce crab cakes. That’s a **** ton of panko! I was like dude if the chef sees me adding all this panko he’s gonna flip. Don’t worry about Chef I make the recipe you just tell chef to talk to me. I’m doing the recipe now.

An hour of time in a busy restaurant is a ****ing eternity. He’s being like meticulous af with every ****ing detail. All my other **** is getting backed up. My station looks chaotic. Someone else is having to pick up my tickets (actually do the cooking).

In walks Chef. WTF is with these crab cakes?!?!? How much ****ing panko is did you put in here?

New manager immediately: Just forget it Occult. Do it the old way.

Me: Dude! Grow a spine!

I answer to people at work just like you.

But you said you write the recipe...

Chef: Occult! Just make the ****ing things. How much time have you wasted?

Me: Yes sir.

lol

This "one chance" is an illusion.
A bad relationship doesn't suddenly work out because you say the right thing one time or do some romantic gesture or whatever.
