I mean…at least the little fella can learn to be careful while he’s dangerous, before taking it on with a real knife 😅
That’s definitely a Jeremy.

Haters will say this is why we can’t hire younger line cooks.

Fuck, that was me last week cutting taleggio. Thankfully it doesn’t happen often, but that week? I was the dumbass who cuts himself.

All of them except the sous and me because the KM keeps hiring dipshits who’ve never worked in a goddamn kitchen before.

Bartenders cutting limes. “I’m gonna use the biggest, dullest cleaver available to cut these wet limes on a cutting board the size of a playing card. Also I’ve had three shots at the bar and I’m distracted by the drama du jour.”

I trained a guy and In 1 day 3 months later he broke all our hud systems, this was after finding out he talked shit about me ti every FOH staff to be big man on campus. 1 night I watched this guy cut his fingers open, then press his hands against the flattop grill. I was fired from buffalo wild wings for strangling this prick after none of my bosses did any form of help to keep my job. This was after my GM helped me with my wife’s baby shower

That guy out on a comp claim I met once? Had a degree in applied narcotics or something. Ended most sentences with, “You know what I’m saying?” or “In other words…”
That’s this guy.

A dude I worked with at Chipotle over a decade ago cut his finger during prep and figured it was a good idea to just flail it around in the most dramatic way possible before getting it wrapped up. Boss made him stay 20 minutes after his shift to clean up his own blood all over the prep station table and walls. Pretty sure he got canned the following day.

Marvin, how did you cut yourself with the glove on?

Me man lol. I’ve cut myself so many times. I’m just clumsy.

I bet this kid gets over his boo-boos quicker than his counterpart at my job… “Oh remember how I cut myself last week? So yeah I couldn’t get to the prep list. Oh remember how I smashed my finger? Salads are going to take at least a half hour because I have to toss with my non dominant hand tonight! Gosh, I sure have been working so hard the last few weeks, with my injuries and all… I can’t wait to post up at the bar for shifties with my hand in a bowl of ice so that everyone asks me what happened! Remember how I cut myself a week ago? It cost me a lot of money because I have to go to the dispensary to get pre-rolls every time I want to smoke now! Hey remember how I smoked everyone out a month ago? Well someone passed it to me out of turn and I wasn’t ready and it burned my nipple! So now when I wear an apron it STINGS! Hey can one of you open this squirt bottle for me? I played video games all night last night and now my thumbs don’t work right!”
None of this is fiction, just not all at once…
EDIT: dude was pushing 40… Probably is in the club now.

Nobody. If I saw a fellow line cook hacking away like that I’d take his prep away myself and send him to the fryers.

I’d say not me, but I’ve somehow cut myself on the dishwasher

So I guess that’s me. As long as we’re counting anything other than a knife.

A kid today cut himself buttering bread, I shit you not.
We’re a BBQ place so a lot of garlic bread goes out on plates. We have a liquid garlic butter that comes in these 17.5 lb jugs with a foil seal. He was using a butcher knife to cut the seal when he cut his finger.

A coworker of mine frequently cuts stuff wrong and gets cut herself. Also she always sucks on the cut like it’s a snake bite and swears that that’s what you’re supposed to do because “it’s your body”.

… me.
I’m banned from the knives unless I’m cutting berries or chocolate. I don’t seem to injure myself doing the dessert stuff I do all the time. Ask me to cut a carrot and you’re going to see blood.

Me on the GODDAMN seran wrap. Knives, slicers, mandolins, whatever. Snooze fest. Closing time and I gotta wrap my station? I’m breaking out the bandaids. I managed to slice the tip of my elbow last shift.

A guy broke his pinkie managed two months of workman’s comp. Has his mom call the manager. He is 40 years old, he has comeback and has used ten bandaids a day for a wound that isn’t bleeding.
