What Do You Do For Your Job/career?

[KinglyCheese]

I am also a cook. Currently positioned as a Senior Line Cook with my foot in the door for great opportunities within the company. Unsure if I would like to obtain my Red Seal in Culinary but the company does support and encourage any member willing to go for it. I work with a lot of skilled cooks, ranging from 21yo students to 45yo Chefs, which gives me the chance to learn many techniques and recipes to share down the line.
Restaurants have their own unique environment. Fast paced, loud and hectic during service so you enjoy the quiet times when you can, but they never last long enough. I've worked in restaurants for nearly 10 years now with prior experience in warehouses doing inventory, shipping and receiving and lots of data entry for product. I loved the environment working as an Inventory 'bitch' but there was little to no room to grow and earn a steady living.

Since you are a fellow cook what kind of food does the restaurant that you work at put out every night? We just changed our menu and took off a couple things and added Chicken Pot Pie, Chicken Sliders, Hush puppies and then added Guacamole back to the menu. We put out American comfort food more than anything. The group i work for has 2 restaurants opening up this year, and I have the opportunities but my current sous doesn't feel like i have either earned what I'm getting or ready for the next step but i feel like there isn't anything for me to do except learn how to get faster which comes with experience and working. My goal for myself is to own my own restaurants and possibly a catering company or food truck. What are your goals with this field?

I'm with Milestones, not sure if you're familiar. We are a fine dining restaurant. Mainly red meats like slow roasted prime rib and 5 different steaks. Our apps consist of flatbreads, wings and pretty interesting dishes that I couldn't even put into a category. Many dishes off our menu are unheard of in my city and the restaurant was opened January of 2014. Still the young gun in town, but since, there has been lots of talk of other fine dine businesses coming up.
I haven't set myself to sticking in this field forever, but as of now I am looking to earn a supervising position and possibly become a Devo. Devo is short for Development and they are the crew to travel to new stores or even take place in an existing site where a major staff turnover is happening. There are 3 Chef positions in our kitchen (Head, Sous and Junior Sous). As of now we do not have a Junior Sous meaning the opportunity is there, but I know I am not ready for the responsibility. Talk of possible promotions have been discussed as a team with the kitchen staff, but they haven't found someone fit for the position. Maybe one day they, and I, will be ready to take charge.

I am a blacksmith/bladesmith/silversmith.

I make many different things, usually knives, so far, but I'd like to see my customer base take me out of that into more traditional work.

Fireplace tools, fences, gates, handrails, chandeliers, hammers, tongs, punches, chisels, wallhooks, wall deco, sculpture, silverware, combs, straight razors, small dishes, jewelry, boxes, trunks, chests, etc. Been debating making a Damascus controller case forever now...

Its good fun and I run my own business doing it, check me out on facebook and instagram.

You sound more like sewer management.
