It did indeed happen tonight as I was told it would....A few highlights:
They made the assistant into a food and beverage director who now oversees the chef position, previous to this the chef answered to the GM or Board members only. Hes gained a vast ammount of power overnight and at the moment in his eyes im viewed as his right hand man, but we all know the first sign of trouble who will be blamed don't we? It's like a bad dream that I cant wake up from haha. Here I sit at the computer at work still, my crew went home hours ago, i'm here alone pondering the thought "whats next?"...Orders staring me in the face, lists of member meetings to discuss menu options for parties/wine tastings/tableside menu's ect....I hear the familiar voice stirring in my head from long ago when an old french chef I worked for told me "one day you'll understand the headaches of what I truely do and the politics of a kitchen". I've done the work between chefs for this club before, but never have the politics been as prevelant as they are now. I'll keep everyone posted as to how things shake out. Thanks for the advice so far!  |
