Would you rather cook than do just about anything else? We all have our limits, of course, but is food your life? Do you love to work under pressure, knowing that what you do will make people happy? Can you find ways to relax that won't do any more damage to your already-stressed body? Do you feel that there is nothing else (other than loved ones) that you want to deal with every day?

If so, you are in the right place, my friend. Being in the foodservice industry is, as far as I am concerned, a calling: it is life, it is breath -- even as it makes us more tired than we ever knew we could be. There is nothing like it. If you feel that way, go for it!
