No regrets on how he’s behaved. Just ignores his own culpability on the trends that he’s pushed either on the job or on TV.
Being a chef is like being a highly trained athlete except you get paid less than the ball boy on the sidelines and you can do your job drunk most of the time. Fuck this asshat.
Fuck this guy.
He’s right.
Looking at all you substance slaves.
You’re not meant to be proudly doped up and smoking at work.
Gordon Ramsay deserves ZERO respect, he’s one of the most damaging people to ever exist in the space. Worst of all is he was trained by Marco Pierre White and specifically had a stance of “I hate loud and obnoxious bully chefs, I never want to be that person” but quickly pivoted to it when he found it would make him money.
He’s a massive sellout and made his fortune propagating a persona that motivated many bully and shitty people in the field. He is quite possibly the worst thing to ever happen to the entire profession.
Fuck him, fuck his legacy, and fuck his stupid scrunched up face.
The dude who is famous for browbeating the shit out of people has words on the state of mental health/substance issues in the industry?
Get fucked Gordo. You’re an asshole sandwich.
The guy who made all his money by normalizing being a caricature of the abusive jackass who made him cry in the walk-in?
I like Gordon Ramsey ok enough but he definitely seems like a guy to not ask about nuance with things, he’s just very surface level it is what it is
edit: I’m getting a few people being extremely aggressive with me over this comment and i wanna point out I said he’s “ok enough” not “i love this man i want him to become God emperor of every kitchen he’s so based” so maybe chill the fuck out before you go ballistic on me my god
This entire clip is a bunch of bullshit. What a waste of 6:38 of my life.
What a douche. He could’ve just said “the average cook is paid min wage and is constantly being overworked”
One of the worst abusers in the industry. Who cares what he has to say?
As a sidenote with regards to Ramsay, I’ve been watching the original UK Kitchen Nightmares lately and it’s crazy how much better it is than the American version – in pretty much all aspects (it’s less formulaic, editing is less ridiculous etc.), but especially with how Ramsay comes across. He still can be a bit of a twat in the UK version, but a likable one, in the US version he plays up his worst behaviour.
Gonna throw out: Maybe if the lead chef isn’t an asshole? Maybe Gordon could think about that?
There’s a lot you can say or argue against Ramsay, but one thing he’s been consistent about always is that cooks/chefs should not be doing the after work partying. He’s not the only “tv chef” to say it.
Go home. The after work drinks or party’s can be fun, but if it’s something you’re seeking daily or nightly, that’s not good.
He spend years being the mental challenge. Why do we likte this absolute fuck?!!
I love seeing everyone in this sub completely disagree with this a******
I stopped listening the second he implied you can either hack it or you become an addict. Way to displace responsibility. Folks at NA would eat his fucking lunch (and leave a well-deserved bad Yelp review)
Fuck this quack
If you want a quality take on restaurant life, read “Kitchen Confidential” by Anthony Bourdain
Would it be harsh to say that he is personally responsible for a large part of the toxicity in the industry ?
If you don’t pay someone working for you a living wage, then not living starts to look more appealing.
Chef’s are the dullest , most self important professionals I can think of. All this self imposed stress. Just cook the food.
He’s describing it but doesn’t want to say it. Abuse, so many chefs have to deal with abuse because people above them think they’re better and everyone that is so use to it they don’t say anything. That’s what drove a lot of chefs I know to drugs and depression. But when you try telling them that they just say it’s normal in the industry.
He literally says that he had plates thrown at him for using a toilet. That’s some unhinged bullshit
Yesssss I love the hate I walked into in this comment section
Overworked, underpaid, unappreciated, and emotional abuse. Thats the source of all the mental anguish we endure. Does this mf really think we blow rails because of a lack of achievements? No, we’re sad and tired. Coke makes you happy and gives you energy; it’s not that deep.
Gordon really needs to get out of his 3 star bubble.
Ramsay is a chode. Josh is cool, though.
