I'm a chef!That year!Out of boredom with school and curiosity and yearning for a better future, I came to a four-star hotel to learn cooking after graduating from junior high school, when I was 15 years old!
An ignorant rural child. Who would have thought that until now, I have slowly spent more than 20 spring and autumn here!
Chef, a high-tech and skilled profession, has been aspired to and admired by many people. But is the chef really that chic and so happy?
Nope!Who can really understand the difficulties of a chef, very little, very little. When you are at home with your parents, wife and children, when you are holding hands with your lover, strolling on the beach, playing in the park or shopping on the street, when you are eating and drinking with friends......
Who would have thought that a chef was busy at work. During the New Year's holidays, you are gathering with your families to celebrate the New Year, and who is preparing a sumptuous meal for you during the holidays?
Who would have thought that a chef would be hungry when you were eating on time every day?
Still waving the sauté spoon in his hand. You may say that the chef is busy and tired, but you are paid a high salary. Is it really high?
Yes, the salary in some places is really good, but this is a work need, we sweat and cut it with a knife, and we fry it with a spoonful of spoons. The people take food as their heaven, which is also the need of society. The food and beverage industry also contributes to society!Who can understand this?
Not everyone wants to be a chef, choosing this profession means living a life of running around and starving, and it means living a life of missing each other with your beloved, gathering less and leaving more.
Who doesn't want a wife and children to have a hot kang head?Who doesn't want to spend time with their children every day?
It's not that I don't want to, friends, I don't dare to think about it, it's painful to miss it, we have to work hard and support our families!We also want to give them a good life. So we have to work harder!
Some people say that the chef is barbaric and the chef is bad, yes, we are rude in language, but those who really understand will know the goodness and loneliness in our hearts.
Chefs, a profession where others are playing while they are still working. Chef, a profession that is not round by family, but by thousands of families;A lonely and lonely profession;A boring and tiring profession;It is also a high-risk profession!The scars on the fingers, the scars on the arms from the oil splashes, ......
They are dressed in thin overalls in the cold, but they cook delicious meals to your lips, and although the sweat soaks the back of their clothes in the hot summer, the food they bring to you is still not inferior!
Friends, if you have a chef friend by your side, please be able to understand and cherish him. It's not that he doesn't understand the world, he also wants to take time out to have a drink with his brothers, it's that he has unspeakable bitterness and tiredness in his heart, and when you are close to his heart, you can feel his loneliness.
Someone once asked me: You have been working for more than 20 years, have you done enough?I said, "Enough has been done in advance, enough is enough!".If I have a little other ability, I won't be a chef anymore, I'm too tired, I'm tired!Really!
Especially in the past few years of the epidemic, the catering industry has not been sluggish. In one because our hotel is state-run. Therefore, we will implement lockdowns from time to time according to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control. Sometimes I only work a few months a year, and the pay is not as high as usual. At this time, I am very annoying, I really want to change to another job, but you are annoyed, enough is enough. After all, I learned this from the beginning, and I also have feelings for this industry, if you stick to it, this is your capital!
Sometimes people are like this, they get tired of doing it, they change when they talk, they get tired of listening to it, they slow down when they follow, they scatter when they walk, and they just forget about it.
I guess that's what many people in the food and beverage industry are saying
