Day 2 of posting my co-workers prep untill I have an aneurysm. (This one is for you chive guy)


Manager is sitting in the office scrolling through reddit.

I just need confirmation that I'm not going crazy. The kitchen continues to gang up on me while I beg us to at bare minimum not poison people. Our DM is stressed enough to punch walls the Resteraunt is losing money but everyone has him convinced I'm part of the problem.

This is a 100+ seat bar.

    Day 2 and I’m convinced chives are this guy’s Roman Empire he just can’t stop prepping them.

    Why are you prepping spoiled food? And is there a chunk of meat in the green onions?

    This is terrible 0/10. Do not come back tomorrow chef 🤢

  7. TightDescription2648

    Holy fuck the problem is the guy ordering the truck how old are those

    I’m calling Chive Protective Services

  12. immersemeinnature

    Where do you work so I never, ever eat there

  13. SandWitchBastardChef

    I call BS on this, that’s something from the fridge’s lost & found

  15. Impressive-Brief5467

    That’s some kitchen nightmares shit, wtf

  16. Fartingonyoursocks

    Were they previously frozen? Yikes.

    u/D3T3KT ‘s manager here coming in from the office where I’m busy scrolling Reddit.

    Those are fine, get your ass out of the shitter and back on the line. The customers aren’t going to poison themselves!

    We’re going to need a bomber squadron for this one

    This reminds me of that video where the guy follows his young child’s instructions to make a PBJ, but as if he was a computer and the child is a programmer.

    Chef – your prep cook was told to slice the green onions. Next time, you need to tell them to make sure they’re edible, and then slice them 😂

  22. whaticypudding

    Tell him to buy a knife and stop prepping everything with his teeth

  23. Creepy-Ad-2941

    I think I could cut better prep with a nice card stock

    Immediately made me think of The Waterboy: “Just promise me that you will never distribute the contents of that jug to any human person.”

  26. U_PassButter

    Is it just me or are those kinda wilty and *off*?

  27. thewayoutisthru_xxx

    I have the flu and this literally made me throw up in my mouth. It needs a nsfw warning

  28. OneProsteticTesticle

    How has no one started r/chivecirclejerk yet?

    Edit: oh…. they did.

  29. CasualRampagingBear

    I have fresher shit in my home fridge and I haven’t been home in a week.

    Buddy you’ve gotta send this (especially if you have a picture before you ‘cleaned it up’) in to your local Department of Public Health, between the rotting produce and cross contamination and god knows what else. If management isn’t listening then you need to escalate.

  33. Vexed_Misanthrope

    I wouldn’t want to continue working in a place that sees nothing wrong with this. I’d abandon ship and call the health department on my way out. 

  34. F1exican

    Ew, you can’t serve rotten food how is that labeled prep? Are you sure that not the scraps bin?

  35. UnplannedEndeavours

    I had an aneurysm looking at this, my cat had an aneurysm looking at this over my head.

    The bird sitting on the tree branch outside my bedroom window had an aneurysm looking at this through the window glass

  36. Natural-Trouble-9489

    Left my spot as a FOH manager because the kitchen was also dirty as fuck and getting people sick. Run fast. They obviously don’t care. Disgusting behavior all around by everyone involved.

  37. proximusprimus57

    Did he prep that today? Looks like it’s been sitting in the cooler over the weekend. Definitely more going on than his crappy knife skills.

  39. Readalie

    I almost threw up looking at this… where are the planes???!

  40. Safferino83

    Fuck no. I can smell the damp compost smell from here.

  42. RosyMiche

    Okay, chivegate jokes aside, that genuinely looks awful. Like, gag-worthy awful. I need your manager to understand that even the laymen know this is bad. What’s his u/? Get him in here.

  43. Fairycharmd

    are they moldy or just frozen?

    Because the next question I’m going to ask is where they scraped off of other plates after service and reused.

    Now I’m going to go hurl.

    Ew chef… Ew

  45. SquirrelOk5454

    Maybe… maybe stop trying to save this place and just call the health department.
