Top for me so far was hearing my fiancée say yes when I asked her to marry me. I've beaten brain cancer twice, but hearing her say yes to forever with me beats that by a massive margin

What? You know how absentee voting works right?

Fair enough, but it's a decent reason to like the color I think :)

I can't imagine a lot of folks are going to agree with me on this, but a nice warm brown is so cozy. Think like the color of Hershey's chocolate (actually, maybe think of a better chocolate).

It's the color of chocolate, coffee, big cozy leather armchairs in old oak libraries, a nice well seared steak... What's not to like?

Have you previously tried to nibble a fish for comparison? Are we talking live or cooked?

Huge fan of both of these, I came to the comments to see if someone already said vote411.org. Really helpful for a brief but thorough snapshot

Eh, I'd be happy with $30 hourly. At 70 hours a week (line cook) I'd be making around $100k. I was making 87¢ an hour above minimum wage at the place I just left. I gave 100% anyway because if I didn't the experience really sucked

I had a job where I was working 80 hours a week without breaks and my boss told me I was part time

Should be "a slightly longer time ago" though I believe

"1 hug" is a regular addition to my fiancé's list when she asks me if there's anything I need. It's a great addition because then I get my hug!

Let's play hide and seek, I'll hide and you seek professional help.

All joking aside, I'm glad you enjoy them! I've never really met anyone who does so I always have to just begrudgingly eat the grape candy myself when it comes in a bag with different flavors. I hate food waste too much to throw the damn stuff out

I get where you're coming from and I wouldn't be surprised if you're right, but I used to work with kids in after-school programs doing homework help and a handful of those kids were really surprisingly talented. I saw some really cool art from some of them, so I could see this being real.

 

Basically what the title says, what made you choose the culinary/food service industry? Why is this what you chose to do?

 

This industry is brutal. I'm tearing my body apart for $16 an hour just continuously reminding myself that I'm learning a lot and this isn't forever, but man is it kicking my ass. What do you all do to unwind? Is booze/weed really all there is to help you chill out at the end of the day?
