You know you're a chef when...

[Kit Craft]

Can't find something in the walk in?
I'll make it magically appear at eye level right in front of you.

It's in the open your eyes section.

Hah, that is totally me. My wife says that I look but I don't see. Has nothing to do with the fridge, it is every aspect in life. I am bad about finding shit that is right in front of my. My grandfather always told me that if it were a snake that it would have bit me.

[Chefspence]

How bout when you don't even see people coming but you have this sixth sense that tells you to scoot forward so someone can get by you.

I always tell my wife “Look with your eyes, not with your mouth!”

I think it's the, I'll stab you if I find it section!!

My bosses affectionally call it the "how much you wanna bet..." game. So far I've won more than I've lost. Until one of them reads this post tomorrow.

I'll also say "you're about to owe me 5 bucks"

[loco_food_guy]

I rest my case.

P.S. Now I'm feeling like an inferior dotard.

Why? Like what you live and who gives a fuck what others think.

[Saltydog]

It was sarcasm.

[MaxM.]

...when all of the stereotypical chef-isms seem like an over-saturated joke perpetuated by the culinary media and you can walk onto the line at any time, with any amount of crush occurring and calmly cook circles around your line cooks while still having fun and encouraging them out of the weeds.
Fuck the ridicule and mockery, that just shows you have something to prove.

[STPepper9]

...when everyone asks what your favorite cooking show is but you don't have an answer because you don't have time to watch them.

[Marc4pt0]

100% concurred. Couldn't even tell you what cooking shows are on these days. Although I do watch top chef ...

[Shabalake]

When...

You tell the dishwasher to be careful when putting glass "gelatin sheets" though the machine.
His face

[cooknola]

You prefer to refer to yourself as a Cook first. Chef second.

[Shabalake]

When..

You ask the waiter for a long wait. Haha

[salemj]

[Chefcallari]

Your also a prep cook.....
And a pastry chef....
And a line cook.....
Every single day...

[Jason H]

When you have a long detailed discussion about what knife to use to carve your turkey.

[delmar]

When the word "behind" is clearly an adjective and not a noun.

[STPepper9]

You mean to tell me that when someone shouts "Hot! Behind!", you don't say "thanks, I've been working out"?

[delmar]

Only if my wife says it.

[Lepus]

Not so bad, yourself.
