Imagine being so dissatisfied with your position that you hypercompare every job in the kitchen as “who works harder than who” instead of understanding that every role is important to the functioning of the group. Also, sure, working in a kitchen is more strenuous than an office or retail job, but don’t pretend for one second that it’s real physical work.

Physical work is rewarding and actually releases endorphins. It's the natural state of a man. You will live a longer and healthier life. And as others have said you can listen to music and be high all day and nobody gives a fuck as long as you do your job.

Oh shit I am having flashbacks when I worked nights as a dishwasher in a tiny taco shop and bar. 3 sinks and no dishwashing machine so it was all by hand. Those cooks were true bros and always shared their liquor with me.

I remember some of those bartenders walking out with 200 in cash for one night of work. It was insane. Place was constantly busy and they made so much money. Dumb fucking whores and the simps who throw cash at them

When I worked dish at some fish shack in college for what was supposed to be "part time" I was in that bitch from 11:20a.am to 2a.m; last man out every busy night. Constantly having my 6 hour scheduled shifts bumped to 10-12 hour days too. Always getting called on my days off. Having to hop on the fryer or prep to help the line cucks catch up. Drenched in sweat because I'm constantly bringing out 50lb stacks of dishes and haling off eiffel towers of pots and pans because prep and wait staff keep stealing my goddamn cart.

Any job is hard if you have a decent work ethic and any job is easy if you work smarter or slack off, but yea, keep thinking the dish guys are so beneath you because they make $1 less an hour and don't get 10 smoke breaks a shift. You either never worked your way up from the bottom of the chain to know any better, worked at a slow, unsuccessful poorly managed restaurant when you did dishes or had some retard type gig like Denny's dish/busser gig, are bullshitting because that's the American way to treat any position you've risen slightly above or even just adjacent to, or all of the above.

You sound like exactly the type of cunt I would only hire to prep soups or assemble salads. Lazy bastard.

I worked as a dishwasher for about a year and I enjoyed it. My autism keeps me happy as I constantly take dishes and make them clean and sparkly. I didn't find the food leftovers gross. It doesn't have time to rot.

The reason I quit was they always wanted me to do delivery. I was a shit driver woo always got lost. People would yell at me for being late, boss would yell at me for taking too long. Shitheads would whine and cry about the food prices when I told them the total.

Go wash dishes in the prepared foods department at a Whole Foods. You'll start at $15/hour and can be pretty much be brain dead, skip work almost as much as you like, be terrible at your job, and generally not give a fuck about anything with very few consequences.

You'll miss out on all the fun restaurant culture, camaraderie, and actually learning anything about food and cooking but it'll pay some bills.

lol when I was a dishwasher I used to jokingly use this excuse when I caught up with my dishes (which was 90% of the time). On weekends the cooks would tell me “must be nice” when they saw me lazing about with an empty dish pit and I just reminded them of the pay difference every time.

it may surprise you to know that this happens all the time. Chefs and waiters just stay back later and clean the pile of dishes that stacks up, the manager fires the dishy and hires a new minimum wage stoner with 0 qualifications.

I was dishwashing for a while but eventually I just stop giving a fuck about doing my job competently and eventually they just trained me as a bartender instead after a few too many complaints by the chefs.

Is every single bartender an alcoholic? All of my fellow bartenders were sneaking in shots or drinking spirits/cocktails out of flasks and bottles. It was insane, basically the everyone behind the bar was tispy or bordering on pretty drunk. I've been offered swigs of flasks by coworkers before in the break room or when I'm having a smoke break..
