>everyone in kitchen is uncomfortable, but let it slide because new guy is super fast dish pig.

Feeling much better now, but I've had to drop all of my friends from the industry. It's hard letting go of addiction and even harder letting go of friends who are still stuck there.

I wish any anon trying to get out the best.

recently furloughed due to covid and considering different career changes.

i very much enjoy cooking and it’s something i’m fairly decent at but i’d really rather not come to hate something i’m actually fond of.
