Sadly, that behavior gives some of us a bad rep. The business is very high pressure so Chef's need to be able to keep it together and stay calm under pressure. Those that cant do that run chaotic kitchens, lose staff and have unhappy workers. Who wants to eat food that comes with that kind of energy?

Not I, for sure. If I were a chef, and had to work under that man, I'd have an ulcer within a week. I also believe that the negative energy from the kitchen "seeps" out into the restaurant itself.

I hope you didn't take it that I thought you were like that . You always come across as very Zen here, your staff must love you. It's just not necessary to yell and scream profanities to be a leader.

Rather have one of my world-class peanut butter sandwiches in happiness, than some food I can't even pronounce in stress.
