My job is a tumor to my soul

Like many of you, I work in a magical land called “the kitchen”. Growing up I worked in them as well, being dragged to work in them since I was 7 to work at my parents kitchen jobs with them. Needless to say I've grown extremely skilled. Now being 19 I work in a kitchen, mostly cause it's what I know and grew up expecting to be.

You keep haveing to go to the back to restock cause morning shift didn't, as well as do prep cause prep didnt do all of it. Then everyone else gets there… And wait, wait for you to do it for them. And what have I got for doing all this? Accusations of being in coke, then having to be the one to rat on all the people actually doing coke. And through all this, 8 months of being there, I still have yet to get trained. I was told day one to get on line and “figure it out”. It's hell.
