"Walking out the back door"

Sung to the tune of "Knocking on Heavans door"

V #1
Take these knives away from me
I just can't use them anymore
Won't hold and edge with stone or steel
I feel like walking out the back door

C
Walk walk walking out the back door.
repete
repete
I feel like walkin out the back door

V #2
Take these chefs off of me
I just can't wear them anymore
It's getting hot, too hot to see
I feel like walkin out the back door

C

V #3
Chef you've got a delivery
I ain't gonna check em in no more
and do your own F*&%$ing inventory
you see cause I am walking out the back door

C

CHEFS DON'T CHANGE LIGHTBULBS!

How many managers does it take to change a lightbulb?
OMG! MANAGERS KNOW HOW TO CHANGE A LIGHTBULB?

Feeling lucky??

A particularly difficult prep cook was portining salmon for a catering. He was instructed to put 14 8oz portions per pan, He was always challenging the chef, on recipies proceedure, etc.. So the chef made SURE he understood and couldn't worm out of it.

The day of the event the chef was loading salmon in the oven, he had counted pans, but NOT portions. Just then the chef turned to the prep, and said,"I know what you are thinking. Did I put in 13 portions, or did I put in 14. To tell you the truth, in the all the confusion I lost count myself. Just ask your self. Do you feel lucky? Well? Do ya punk?

The Ice man.

Ok not a joke, but a real **Snicker** story.

I heard of an angry dishwasher that had been balled out by the chef. When the chef went into the freezer the diswasher took a 5 gal bucket of HOT water and doused the door. The ice built up on the sides melted, and refroze to lock him in. Sure it wasn't locked BUT the ice had made it REAL hard to open the door. when he emerged (alive) the dishwasher was no where to be seen..

Dishwashers can be deadly

16 REASONS WHY ALCOHOL SHOULD BE SERVED AT WORK...


1. It's an incentive to show up.

2. It leads to more honest communications.

3. It reduces complaints about low pay.

4. Employees tell management what they think, not what they want to hear.

5. It encourages car pooling.

6. Increase job satisfaction because if you have a bad job, you don't
care.

7. It eliminates vacations because people would rather come to work.

8. It makes fellow employees look better.

9. It makes the cafeteria food taste better.

10. Bosses are more likely to hand out raises when they are wasted.

11. Salary negotiations are a lot more profitable.

12. Employees work later since there's no longer a need to relax at the
bar.

13. It makes everyone more open with their ideas.

14. Eliminates the need for employees to get drunk on their lunch break.

15. Employees no longer need coffee to sober up.

gross

Funeral refferals

This just happened last night, and was funny enough to post as a joke.

Setup: I was called by a family that needed catering the next day for their fathers funeral. After promising to do what I could for them the daughter said.

"Oh thank you. You will be taken care of well, and in fact I have an uncle that is really quite.. well he isn't doing so well. So if you do a good job of this memorial I will have more work for you comming up.

"Gee thanks miss, lets just concentrate on tomorrow"

Just call me "Chef Death"

At 2AM I received a call that there had been a head on collision, and they were calling it off.. Brings new meaning the Greek tradgedy

Greek family and all.
