"The gloves thing. I use them all the time, but a fuckload of people don’t know how to use them correctly or change them enough. I’ve seen people do some fucked-up things with gloves on—wipe their ass, grab their goodies, touch raw chicken and then go back to cooking/salad-tossing with the same gloves on." Not to mention all the spitting on the onion rings.

I guess they don't call them 'door whores' for nothing.

Yeah, in their dreams maybe! When I was a hostess in some pretty fancy places that will remain unnamed here, I was constantly harassed by a-hole managers and busboys (they saw the managers treat me like I was everybody's public property, and thought they could do it too, I guess!) Waiters treated me with the utmost respect, and I certainly never even had to cross paths with a chef. People think hostesses are bimbos because they're hired based on their looks and agreable, non-confrontational personalities, without which a-holes would be constantly getting verbally castrated by irate, abused hostesses. I was really glad to get out of that gig. Jeez. The creeps a girl has to put up with, and with a smile.

I call bullshit on the hostess thing. Everyone knows that chefs are gay.
