The restaurant business is strange. People will pay a lot of money for the
experience of a nice meal, but no one wants to pay the staff well. I have a
nephew who spent a few years in college to become a chef and I was appalled
to find out how much he was making as a sous chef.

Isn't that the traditional way of becomming a chef? Work long hours
at low pay just to learn the business.

Practice safe eating. Always use condiments.

I don't believe chefs beat their sous chefs anymore But yes, it's the
hard work, long hours, low pay way. No one graduates from culinary school
and instantly becomes head chef at a restaurant.
