Any professional chefs?!
Answers: What are your hours and work schedule like? Do you have to work weekends? Is it difficult to find time to date or date your girlfriend/boyfriend?
I have about 5 professional chefs in my close friends/family. They are all required to work holidays and weekends. It's pretty tough for them to schedule anything for sure with the family/me, because of this schedule. They love the job, but it's def not for me :)
I used to work 11 hour days, Tues-Sat. for over 8 years. There was no such thing as vacation or being sick. I wasn't dating at the time, so it wasn't a problem, it was just normal to me. I still love cooking, but I don't miss it in a restaurant kitchen. Thank God I retired.
