Must’ve heard you say “Cut cucumbers with a quarter”
Evil_Eukaryote
Are all the pieces like that?
patricksaurus
Did Mr. Magoo get an offer?
EDIT – on second thought, maybe he took you to mean the historical practice of lashing cucumbers to four horses running at 90 degrees from one another.

What is the stage?

Those must have been some janky cucumbers if that is what the quarters look like.

Well asking people to work for free. Is slave labor.

Maybe train your staff to prep properly.
yeroldfatdad
Maybe stop the staging and hire someone to train your way. IMHO

I too have used a hammer to cut something before.

Is this Loss?

Shocking! This guy’s stage needs training and doesn’t have knife skills yet?! Unthinkable! How dare he work for you for free!

I am trying to understand what misunderstanding led to them being cut like that. Aint one of them cuts even look alike to tell what they were going for.

I’m going to ask the obvious—did you show them how you wanted it done?
crankypizza
Did you just say quarter these and not check the results?
Are you so busy you can’t verify first cut is correct or show them how to do it properly?

Part of having a stage is observing their work, not exploiting free labor. At no point did you think to check on them? Or show an example? I know it should be a “known” thing to “quarter cucumbers for pickles,” but it saves everyone’s time/effort if you show what your expectations are.

That’s a failed stage brother

Did they use their teeth to cut them?

Relish time.

Besides all the other obvious problems, what’s the point of a stage if they’re just blindly given tasks and no one’s actually checking their work?
VendettaPenguin
Like one of my old chefs would say. “What did you do, cut this with your ass?”

Relish will be featuring heavily in the lunch specials this month.

Send them to me at the deli and I’ll start by showing them how to cut a whole pickle into four.
We can work up to cukes.

Like how does one even get finished doing this and think to themselves, that was a job well done.

“Did you say ‘quartered’? I thought you said ‘slaughtered’”

Maybe these where to make a youtube thumbnail spelling out something using the pickles as letters

Were these “cut” with the flat side of a meat tenderizer?

These look like that one time I tried to brush my hair with a brick.

I asked a guy with “17 years experience in fine dining” to medium dice a bag of onions on his first day. When I finally checked on him they looked like this.
It was my first hire ever, and my first fire ever.
He said, “I’m getting fired for cutting onion wrong?” Holy hell he was pissed.
No, dude. It’s for lying about experience and getting hired at a premium. If he’d been the same starting wage as everyone else, then it’s fine if I had to teach him how to cut. He was hired so i wouldn’t have to teach.

Do they not know how many quarters make up a whole?
Graybeard_Shaving
Well now you have a “rustic pickle brined with the owners grandmothers very special 100yr old recipe!”.
