    As a cook, I would soooo have the same job under communism and have a great fucking time doing it. The reason the industry sucks is capitalism also under communism we only make meals to order once or twice a week. The rest of the time it's stuff that can be mass prepped, there can be a variety, but you're going buffet style most of the time.

      hell yea, I used to work at a bourgie health food store and the best time of the night was at 8pm when the deli started closing and the deli guys would let us raid the hot bar buffet for free. I'd take like a dozen premade burritos in addition to my own dinner to pass out to unhoused folks on my way home. Whenever someone learned I would walk home to the "sketchy" side of town every night they would ask if I wasn't scared of being accosted or something and I was always like "What who's gonna fuck with me? I'm the burrito guy!"
