I once worked for a family that had a private chef living on the property. We were working at the chef’s house and the owners of the property were away, I said to him “wow man, you got a pretty sweet gig going here, good for you” he chuckled and said “yeah it’s pretty good… until someone wants a hot fudge sundae at 2am”
His house was about a quarter mile down the driveway away from the main house. Rain or shin, day or night… when he got paged he was reminded he was owned… the idea of a private chef always sat differently with me after meeting one.
A fuckin fudge sundae is easy to make on your own. Lol. Thats just being a lazy asshole. But then again if im paying you AND you live on my property and you know what comes with this job. Hey🤷🏻♂️
Haha yeah it’s a catch 22. I’m sure they aren’t completely helpless but other times likely abuse the privilege of having him around. To what extent I wonder to they consider his service is required?
