This one girl I knew was the best baker I've ever seen, she could make you a pastry that made your knees weak but she ended up quitting and working in a farmers market because of the crazy ex-bouncer/dj that screamed at her for the smallest mistakes. That same guy would sabotage my work because I just ignored his craziness, I'd be filling up a sink to wash a big soup pot and he'd empty it when I'm not looking and take all of his stuff in his station and dump it in the pot to make it so I couldn't get the soup made on time. I've got an endless list of stories like this. The last restaurant I worked for told me they'd cut off my balls and burn my house if I didn't give them their keys back immediately, that was a nice voicemail.

I would save that for posterity. I would make that the message on my voicemail.
