My Fellow Culinarians

So it has been quite some time since I had enough on my mind to make me sit down and decide to start blogging again. Today was just one of those days when The whole world was getting on my nerves and I so need it to be over. Most everyone I know, knows that I am in culinary school.

Today at school there was a conversation that took place that I just felt the need to come on here and write about. To make a long story short I was talking to 2 girls at school and the conversation basically led to how hard we all work at school, and I made a comment that seemed to I gues offend the ones that I was speaking to. My exacgt words were "I don't give a fuck enough to be strong willed about this place because in the real world no one you work for is gonna care how good your stock came out in soups and stocks class." Basically what I was saying was, no one you are ever gonna work for is care if you made straight A's in school. I have been employed for more time than most of the poeple at tat school have been alive. And the truth about it is not one person I have ever interviewed with or worked for asked me what kind of grades I made in school. Why? Because no one gives a damn.

The only problem with the people I go to school with is that they all act like they are on the food network everyday trying to beat the Iron Chef in a competition. It's not that damn important people. It's really not. I understand wanting to do great for yourself. But trying to do shit you just simply are not capable of is a totally different story. Everyone at school is all acting like they are gonna be famous as soon as they walk out the doors of Louisiana Culinary Institute. The truth about it is, you are gonna be the exact same person when you leave as you were when you came in, just alittle more knowledgable. Nobody from the food network is gonna come to LA and recruit you because you were a LCI student, and no magazine is gonna come feature you in an article because you can make a tiger stripe out of aspic jelly. It is what it is. You are still just you, Deal with it and move on.
