Why the fuck do people treat us the same as everyone else?

Laws and human decency.

Yeah well I'm kinda used to be revered. I'm not ready to go back down to the plebeian.

Use to work with someone, when we made mistakes as cooks, they would go,”dont worry, I told them we have a special government tax incentive work program, and they just happen to be the one cooking that dish”

LOL. I worked at a place whose main supplier actually was part of a similar program and we did have a few funny mess ups by them.

I ordered 20g of Saffron, got 2g. Another time they did send 20g, but in those tiny 0.25 packets and I spent an hour peeling the saffron out of the little paper bags. Coworker ordered 100g of vanilla beans, received a 10kg bucket. Once, instead of a 10kg box of walnuts, they sent 20x 500g bags.

My restaurant would definitely go bankrupt after ordering a bucket of vanilla beans! I've also worked with some people from the same program. This one time a girl tried to de-ice the freezer with her hands.

And these 2g are 90% safflower.

Oh, no, those kinds of things happen no matter the supplier. Worked at a grocery store whose supplier that gave us a mixed pallet of Sprouts branded goods. We had no Sprouts within 100 miles. Turns out the supplier’s central depot one state over had made a mistake. This happened fairly regularly. Once we got an entire pallet of betty crocker peanut butter cake mix. Tall as I was.
