Great post, That's one of my biggest pet peeve, people judging without the slightest clue of who you are as a person, and how happy you are doing what you love to do. As I grow older, I think to myself, I'm glad I chose culinary as my career, I love doing it, and its not at all for the money. I could have chosen something much easier, or something that pays more, but i stuck in the low paying jobs to master my craft. Anyway I almost wrote a blog on your page, lol. I love the answer you gave him, very calm and collective. Great Topic
Awesome! I’m so glad you liked it. You know being a chef is one of the hardest and most under appreciated jobs I know of. It’s a real rhythm one must have in the kitchen. I guess a perk is you don’t have to interact with customers very much. Haha… yea, usually I’m Teflon but this whole idea that we all have to act, look, speak a certain way is nonsense to me. The beauty in the world is within the uniqueness of the individual. I’d like to see more people celebrating these differences rather than enforcing sameness. Thanks for stopping by @nickall and as always, it’s a pleasure talking with you.
So true, pleasure to you as well, looking forward to reading more.
I embrace individualism & going against the grain. My only stipulation is that you can do anything you want to do as long as it doesn’t hurt others.
I agree with you nickall. I feel I’m in my line of work because it’s teaching me life lessons, & in turn I think I’m helping others learn their’s. I think we are where we are supposed to be & when we’re not, we’ll be somewhere else.
