    Can confirm, my friend worked as a cook for 2 different places (not fast food, local restaurants) for a while because he needed money in college. He told me it’s the most stressful job he’s experienced and the pay wasn’t worth the effort. Nobody in the kitchen wanted to be there, in prime hours there are so many orders that they can’t help but rush everything while shouting to each other.

    I can imagine how tedious that job is, having to make the same food for months except you’re always time pressured and told to do it faster. Working as a waiter or cashier is way simpler and I imagine the pay difference isn’t massive.
