 Is it strange to want to be a cook but not a chef?
I have been working as a short order cook now for about a year , and I really enjoy what i'm doing . I would like to get into a larger resturant where I can learn more about the buisness . The thing is that as much as I enjoy cooking professionally , I really dont think that I would enjoy it as much if I was an actual chef . Now I know it takes a long time to work your way up to the top position just like in any field , and somewhere down the line I may change my mind . I just really love the cooking end of things and dont want to have to worry about keeping track of inventory and food cost , and labor costs , and all the other things that go along with being in charge . I have been cooking as long as I can remember and have always loved the hands on experience , and the feeling of pride when others take pleasure in the things I make . I want to learn more and continue on in this field , but I just want to cook . Is it strange or wierd to feel this way ? |
