Remember the restaurant that I used to run? The current owners have asked me back to help out for about 6 weeks due to 2 chefs are leaving to go back to China for a month holiday...Today was my 3rd day back...I can't believe how deep a shit hole they have got into! Their Head Chef (Self proclaimed 10+ years of experience at some fancy restaurant) is a complete mockery of the word "Chef", I have only been a Chef for two years but I was loaded with at least 50 years worth of experiences through 3 different chefs...and even I know this guy is utter useless. There was a few things that confused me to the point of hysterical laughter...I swear on my life these are questions/comments HE asked/said me!

  1. Why is business bad?
     
  2. Why is it that since you came back business is so dead?
     
  3. Why are you making sauce like that?
     
  4. Why are you so eager to get things done?
     
  5. If you make sauces/flavour food that way it'll taste bad!
     
  6. Why don't you make those sauces with the same base then flavour them differently when cooking?


1) On the day itself, weather conditions were horrible so "maybe" people don't want to come out!

2) WAY before you got yourself here, I ran the Kitchen with an Iron Fist, everything I made was to the customers taste. YOU make things to YOUR taste and not the customers...they don't like it and its YOUR FAULT NOT ME BEING BACK!!! Plus it was YOUR BOSS who specifically WANTED ME BACK TO TAKE BACK MY PLACE AS HEAD to replace you!

3) I make sauce the way it's SUPPOSED to be made! With TLC and time! You who have "X number of years of experience" is asking such a beginner's question...ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!

4) Eager to get things done? Maybe because I get PAID to do work???

5) I said before, THIS IS HOW I MADE IT BEFORE YOU WERE HERE AND CUSTOMERS CAME BACK!!! THAT is way I flavour the things that way!

6) Those are two COMPLETELY different flavours of sauces! HOW THE HELL can you make it taste different when the base sauce is the same for the two different sauces!!!????


This "Chef" is a retard, lack of work ethics, lack of real experience (if any), lack of knowledge and COMPLETELY ignoring the fact that customers like to eat things THEY like, not what YOU LIKE! Its very sad to see the reputation I created over the past 2 years has been kicked to it's knees in just 3 months...

I have been drinking for almost the whole week...about 4-5units a time and have noticed that its not good for me...I can't think straight, I can't focus, I am losing motivation and its getting very depressing. OK, my ex girlfriend has got a new boyfriend shortly after the break up...it hurts. Deal with it better! OK, there's this girl I like but doesn't feel the same...it hurts. Deal with it better! My best friend, Adam, you are an irreplaceable in every sense of the word. Thank you for being there when I needed somebody the most and for giving me good enough reasons to hang on to what is left of my sanity. Now that I've sobered up a little can I realise that I am the one stopping myself from progress of any kind. With the Xmas period round the corner, a few drinks will be fine, then afterwards I'll go 2 months without it and see what happens. During this time, I'll catch up on the reading that I have to do and get my "to do list" knuckled d...

Its all coming back! :D

Oh Hell yeah!!!!!!!! Remember a month ago I screwed things over a bit with Michelle? After many messages and persuasion, I managed to be "dating her"...I'm not entirely sure what  actually happened... Last Wednesday we had a lunch date...then I asked if she wanted to come with me to look for a new car...I choose to go back to my old place of work (Citroen and Seat dealers), saw a good number of old colleagues and my old manager! We greeted and had a catch up...then they offered me AN ASS KICKING EPIC DEAL... So i bought a car...Seat Ibiza, 1.4litre engine...140 break horse power with a decent 60mpg......in black... Life is pretty sweet just now, (almost) girlfriend and new car...needing a flat to call home :)

Ballocking from the manager...

It was Sunday 1st September... Work usually starts at 12pm on Sunday but because it was the first day of the new reg plates for cars, everyone came into work early. As my colleagues were very busy with delivering cars to their clients on a tight schedule...I was left to do odds and ends such as greeting customers and taking them out for test drives. A couple came into the showroom and wanted to test drive a Seat Ibiza....my mentor told me to grab the company's trade plates and the keys for the requested car. So off I went to grab both items...I've been here for just over a month and know pretty much where things are or where they should be...however...I not able to find the trade plates... What happened earlier was another colleague of mine had done a test drive with a customer and left the trade plates in that car...long story short, he didn't put the keys back onto the board where they're usually kept, I couldn't find them, my manager gave me a ballocking for n...
