Will you be a chef when you finish school?
No, I’ll not be a chef when I finish school - if I finish it. I’m way too puny and weak to do the kind of hard physical work required of poor line cooks and I’m too old to take the abuse. Already I’ve fired back at a few of the lab workers who behave like Captain Bligh on the Bounty when the culinary professor has his back turned.
I’m now thinking of transferring to pastry classes in NYC. That’s where my strength and talent is.
