All I can say for me, is, that it felt for a very long time, I just could not do anything right. All my cuts were to thin, to thick. Felt like I just overcooked / undercooked every protein and veggie imaginable, burned / cut myself everyday. But now... 5 years later, I'm still learning daily, but I am a heck of a lot better now that I got my "legs" in cooking. I can time things so much better, learned so many little "tricks" that have saved me so much time.
I guess really in summary, I'm just glad I stuck thru it when there was no light and the end of the tunnel. The nights where you just wanted to walk out with your twenty tickets hanging. Oh and its neat to be able to guide new people now that I work with. |
