Everyone knows that person who treats their tolerance for spice like it's a personality trait. I used to work with a friend who was practically immune to spice and would always throw out taunting requests like this to wait-staff, insinuating that there was no way their chef could placate his lust for the fieriest of infernos. We had a Thai place near the office that we would frequent for lunch, the pair of us would always order the same dish (pad thai), and my friend would submit his usual requ…

Rules either exist for no good reason or were written in blood; there is no in-between. The ones that were dreamt up by a bored middle manager somewhere often are more of a means of maintaining control over the workforce than anything regarding safety or productivity, so at the end of the day, they're not the most necessary. Rinsing rice may not be the highest stake workplace activity, so when you're under the pump thanks to chronic understaffing, this is probably one procedure where it's ok to…

No one's perfect at their job, mistakes do happen. When you're a chef, however, any cooking mistake is going to effect a lot of dishes, and therefore a lot of customers! Chefs, bakers, and waiters gathered to share their funniest stories of food prep gone wrong, and the results are eye-opening and hilarious. It's a good look at the behind the scenes life of a restaurant. I never thought about what might happen if you had to make 40 pecan and pumpkin pies , and then burnt them all! It's a major…

If you read the original poster's title as ‘Hitachi Fun’ instead of ‘Hibachi Fun,’ like me, you were expecting a very different thread.

Eating food that has touched unsanitary surfaces is revolting for some people and, as far as gross environments go, motel bathrooms are arguably the most disgusting communal areas known to man. Motel bathrooms are basically a receptacle for all human excretions and it's not always cleaned (or nuked?) appropriately. However, for one non-discriminating foodie has combined the horrors of motel bathrooms with the culinary arts, building his entire social media platform on creating elaborate recipes…

People really will just pick the most random thing and build their personality around it; it's as if they just spun a wheel of haphazardly selected topics and went with the first thing it landed on. Enter I-can-eat-hotter-foods-than-you guy; everyone knows this guy, and chances are he's one of your friends or a friend of a friend and—well… is kinda known for being a boastful egomaniac. Somehow, at some point, he decided to base his fragile ego around the spice levels of food, and now he's going…

Far too many new managers think they can walk into a new organization and start implementing and imposing changes.

There's no recovering from any of these

One avid chef got more than he bargained for when he asked a seemingly simple question to the r/BBQ subreddit.

Welcome to the internet competition to see who can cook the worst! This ongoing competition is so absurd that you have to see it to believe it.

It's never a good thing when an employer forces their employee to miss a significant life event in order to assert their authority over the employee's life and ensure that they never dare to question the importance of their work again. Such instances are dehumanizing and toxically reinforce the bizarre idea that our work is more important than our family and health. It's shocking then to think that a parent could do this to their own child who works for them. Well, that's exactly what happened…

Thanks to the advice they received in their original post this chef avoided a terrible meet-up.

The Chef was "panned" by readers.

Now that's a hard boss to have.
