A Cold Grill Cooks Nothing The first order arrives before anyone preheats the grill. Gus cannot sear dinner on equipment that only recently learned it has a job. #GusBrennan #GrillStation #KitchenPrep #DinnerRush #ChefProblems #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Move The Oven Mitts A pair of oven mitts rests beside an active burner. Gus removes a fire hazard that never belonged on the range. #GusBrennan #FireSafety #OvenMitts #DinnerRush #ChefProblems #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Put My Tools Back Someone reorganizes Gus's station during service. Every tool is now somewhere logical to everyone except the chef who needs it. #GusBrennan #KitchenStation #MiseEnPlace #DinnerRush #ChefRant #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Ring It In First A server calls an order across the kitchen without entering it. Gus refuses to cook from memory while the line is already busy. #GusBrennan #RingItIn #DinnerRush #ServerProblems #KitchenLife #ChefLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Move The Mop Bucket Someone parks a mop bucket in the busiest kitchen aisle during service. Gus would prefer to finish dinner without turning the line into an obstacle course. #GusBrennan #KitchenSafety #DinnerRush #BackOfHouse #ChefRant #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Read The Room The dinner rush is burying the line, and someone decides it is the perfect moment to request a complicated employee meal. #GusBrennan #EmployeeMeal #DinnerRush #KitchenChaos #RestaurantLife #ChefLife #KitchenLife #LineCook

Delivery During Dinner Rush A produce delivery arrives in the middle of Friday dinner service and turns the back hallway into an obstacle course. #GusBrennan #RestaurantDelivery #DinnerRush #KitchenChaos #BackOfHouse #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

Six Tables, One Button A server holds several tables and sends every order at once, turning a normal service into an instant kitchen pileup. #GusBrennan #DinnerRush #TicketPrinter #ServerProblems #KitchenChaos #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook

How Long On That A server rings in an order and asks Gus how long it will take almost immediately. The food has not even met the pan yet. #GusBrennan #KitchenPass #ServerProblems #DinnerRush #ChefRant #ChefLife #KitchenLife #RestaurantLife #LineCook
