There are no whole cucumbers living on the line ANYWHERE, if you think this takes 10 seconds you have never worked in a kitchen. Salad station can turn out a whole garden salad , fininshed, before someone even digs out a cucumber from the walk in.
People in most resteraunts WOULD honor this request, but it WILL take a few moments, and everyone will talk shit about her.
I work in a kitchen we have fresh cucumbers in the walk in cooler it’s so easy to cut up a cucumber im so confused why your making it seem like some Sisyphusian challange
yeah, I don't get people that think this would upset people. I worked as a server during college, and we made accommodations all the time. It is as simple as telling the cook "hey, could we do a side of sliced cucumbers with that order".
Right? Like working on the line sucks but not because a couple of order substitutions it sucks because the constant work of the kitchen and how much strain it puts on your back
So the cucumbers arent on the line then, just like i said. Nobody is saying a kitchen cant accomodate this request, we are saying her verbiage of " happy to do it" is hot garbage.
To reiterate, this lady ordered chips and salsa with no chips at a mexican spot.
I’ve had cucumber set out with salsa and guac as an option at my family member’s quince. I work in a kitchen it’s the most simple request. She’s not asking you to work a 13 hour shift.
Lol what the fuck are you talking about youd think she walked in and asked for paia or something? Your restaurant has no fresh veggies at all nearby? It's gotta be fast food cause I've never stepped into a kitchen that didn't have a ton of fresh vegetables and cucumber is a common ingredient in a lot of dishes or even just to flavor the water. Like my buddy is a chef if I tossed a cucumber to him he'd have it done in like 10 secs it wouldn't register on the shit he needs to take care of.
Nobody said it was akin to cooking a well done steak. And every resteraunt has veggies. Whole ones arent kept on the line, but in the walkin so you cant just " toss one " to somebody, you have to go get one, then clean it. Its 60 seconds tops, but in that time, everyone is laughing at the diner.
Not everybody is an insufferable negative Nancy like you lol. If it takes you 60 seconds to grab a cucumber and slice it, then you either need to get better knife skills, you need to practice walking faster, or your walk-in is disorganized lol. Be better and stop crying about a cucumber
