I just get upset when ppl try to be all "I know more than you bcuz I work in the industry".
It took me a long time to get over myself and LEARN that I don't know shit. Always be learning. I've been taught tricks by dishwashers doing menial tasks, simply because they thought of a more efficient way of performing their task.
As far as the "chefs don't cook at home" trope -
I like to cook at home, but in a less creative way. I make chow, and I make good chow. At work, it's a struggle and I have to work with kitchen managers and purveyors to try to create a menu that our clientele will enjoy. That's why I like this challenge. No pressure. Just kinda screwing around.
There's no pretense, there's no ego, It's just dicking around trying to make something I might like using the challenge guidelines.

People in the industry need more humility. I hold disdain for ppl here claiming that they are king shit of fuck mountain because they've held a position in the field.
