In this scenario, crying over spilled milk might be okay.
I don't know if a dustpan will be the most helpful cleaning tool with this mess...
To the line cook who emptied 350°F fryer grease into a plastic bucket... I hope you like mopping!
I'm not sure this is what the chef meant when he said to "put your stamp on" the dessert plating.
Meticulously preparing something fresh and then seeing it spill all over the floor — we've all been there, and it's always heartbreaking.
I don't know how long a pot has to be on the stove before a hole is burnt through the bottom of the pot, but I do know it's TOO LONG.
Just because it's a little tilted doesn't mean it's unusable, does it?
