I just saw The Menu (very good) and the military regime-esque sycophantic "YES CHEF" chants repulsed me. Gordon Ramsay has made a career out of screaming insults at his workers. How much of this is true to life and what is the leftist view on it?
I worked as a dish-hand and started and quit in the same weekend. Unbelievably high pressure and aggression from your co-workers. Is the answer "if they're well paid and have adequate time off it's fine"? Can a high pressure environment work with politeness and tact? Is the grotesque heirachy inherent in these workplaces?
I haven't read much so I have no clue.
Oh yeah... If you were to design a dish pit, cooking stations, prep stations, fridge/frozen storage areas with the same square footage as the Front of House it could be improved. Then it probably would only need a few extra bodies during the workday to make up for the increased distance between stations.
