Welcome to the life of paul-ticks. It is un-avoidable and a fact of life. Your ***. Mngr seems to have a good run of the club and won't rest untill he controlls all aspects of it, which includes you--which is why he is saying that you will be happy to work as Exec (for him.... after all he promoted you, didn't he? Now you owe him, right?)
G & C.C's and Hotels are famous for this type of paul-ticking and backstabbbing. A great Chef is a good administrator and either watches his back very closely or backstabs first before others can get him. Survival of the fittest, so to speak, not much to do with cooking other than new menu ideas once a year or so... If this secenerio isn't attractive to you, I suggest you get out and try the restaurants, or, like myself, open up your own place. |
