Meet Your Chef

Whenever I get all mid-life-crisis-like, Kari tries to cheer me up by thinking up dream jobs for me. One of her favorite ideas is to send me to a chef school like the CIA, for instance (no, not that CIA), because, you know, I like to cook.

It seems like a nice idea, but as I tell her, I'm not sure I want to spend all day every day slaving over a hot stove cooking for other people. At least, not unless I can get my own show on the Food Network or something.

Well, it turns out those tv guys aren't so crazy about cooking either. According to the Waiter Rant blog, it's Ernesto the El Salvadoran sous chef who ends up getting stuck with the job.

Hmm...overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated? Maybe I'll go into teaching instead...
