Pizza chefs of Lemmy, is a job as a pizza chef a physically demanding job?

I'm asking because, i'm thinking about doing a little part time job as a pizza maker on one day of the week because 1. i FRICKIN LOVE PIZZA and 2. i need to do something physically demanding as an contra to my office job which is only mentally exhausting. Just doin workouts at the gym would be an option yes, but getting the same...

Any kitchen work demands muscles you never even knew existed.

Your legs will hate you, but get some good, proper shoes with insoles.

Your back will hate you, try and find a place that has kitchen mats, instead of bare floor.

Your arms will hate you, and they will just have to get used to it...

The thing is, you'll work steadily and THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERYONE HAS AN ORDER NOOOOOOWWWWW and you run yer nuts off, and finish & go home, genrally buzzing from the adrenaline, which is why so many cooks, chefs and staff drink excessively...to shut down the noise....so be wary of that

Your body will adapt, go have fun.

The mat (along with) good shoes and insoles cushion impact on your legs/back. It also creates a non slip area that is important if you're working with oil (hot or cold).

If you have several mats running along a line it's customary to take plastic wrap and tie the ends so they all are one piece and don't scootch away from each other during the shift.

Because I cannot believe that non existence is the default, and that what we are doing now is but a blip...so I'm going to see where this blip takes me.

It just took all that time to send the signal to turn off and turn back on again. The junior IT guy who suggested it was promoted.

Christ in The House of Martha and Mary - Johannes Vermeer (1654-6) 🇳🇱

Christ in the House of Martha and Mary (Dutch: Christus in het huis van Martha en Maria) is a painting finished in 1655 by the Dutch Golden Age painter Johannes Vermeer. It is now in the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh. It is the largest painting by Vermeer and one of the very few with an overt religious motive (63"x56").

"The best 2 says in a boat owners life is when they buy it, and when they sell it".

Start with renting & work to get your captains license.

Growing up on a very large lake I have plenty of horror stories about people who don't take boat safety seriously, drunk driving etc. It is easy to pick up but the possibility of you fucking up your life (and others) increases.

For cheap and easy sailing, try Hobie Cats, small catamarans that are a blast to sail, very easy to learn and navigate with.

Way back as a line cook I was on saute and it was the season for soft shell crab. I had a full rail of tickets, and 2-14in. saute pans with oil heating up on full blast while I knelt down to grab the crabs from my prep cooler across from the range.

The 'roided up chef stepped over me to get to middle to expedite the rush, and grabbed one of the pans with now very hot oil in them...realizing that they had oil he stopped his motion but Newtons law kept the oil flowing, down onto my bare forearm, hand and how I was positioned my ankle.

The grill guy immediately took a pan of water and splashed my arm with it, rolled down my sleeve and soaked it....and as a bonus being a dumbass I finished the shift before driving myself to the ER. Some good blisters but fortunately no scarring, very little pain because it was kept covered.

Bonus bits: The hotel/golf resort just implemented a drug policy, and if you were injured or did 200 USD of damage you needed to take a drug test, which I did. Policy also stated that you wait 3 days not working for the results.
This was the start of a very busy weekend with a car show on the golf course, etc, and every warm body was needed, I went in to work the next day and if they wanted to send someone else for a drug test because they caused the accident, I suggested the ill tempered redheaded café chef...my results were discarded later.

Bonus bonus, right after the policy was put in place, a manager dropped a chandelier & walked away from his job after 5 years working there instead of taking the drug test.

Putin offers truce if Ukraine exits Russian-claimed areas and drops NATO bid. Kyiv rejects it ( apnews.com )

Russian President Vladimir Putin promised Friday to “immediately” order a cease-fire in Ukraine and start negotiations if Kyiv began withdrawing troops from the four regions annexed by Moscow in 2022 and renounced plans to join NATO. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejected what he called an ultimatum by Putin to...

Paper, simply because out of sight out of mind.

I do a grid, Top left due today

top right running list of additional things

bottom left shit thats due but not urgent

bottom right long term projects, stuff in progress that takes time

Brain is dumb so as i write out the list i cross stuff off, even if I just did it (train your brain to get that delicious sense of accomplishment)

If I have, say, a binder with cover that doesn't work...needs to be visible. Brain is dumb.

Cheap and easy. Could be something as simple as a towel until you can find a replacement drain with cover.

Yeah I remember you writing his part of the project... fair warning, work life is generally full of these assholes and consider this some valuable training. Do not let them slide, make sure you're representing your efforts (fairly, but firmly) keep your name out front, these shitheads will not hesitate to sling mud at you and your work to save themselves.
