I am not a chef. Even when I have my diploma, I won't be a chef.

the dudes who work in the kitchen at oddfellows, while excellent at what they do, i would not call chef. they are all really great cooks though.
i understand that ego plays a HUGE part in the roll of being at the helm of a kitchen, but some people are too full of themselves.

like honestly, i think i'm a great COOK but never in my life will i ever think of myself as a chef. chefs can do things that i can't due to training, disposal of equiptment and the like.

the guy who sat in this chair before me called himself Creative Director.
i nearly puked when i saw his business card with that title.
he was fresh out of "school" (more likely three weeks at DeVry or something) and lazily threw sloppy layouts together with no design sense or precision. argh.
I shall forever call you Iron Chef because I WAS THERE.
my sister doesn't like the title Chef either because she doesn't have her papers. but she's been in the biz for many years, she runs a kitchen, manages a whack of sous-chefs, and turned what was supposed to be a charming pub into a fantastic restaurant that all of Kingston raves about.
i consider her a chef.
and i know it's just a matter of time before we're giving you the chef salute. or handshake. is there a secret handshake?
