Has anyone here ever worked as a cook at a remote site like a work camp or oil rig? I'd be interested to hear your stories, as I think this is going to be my back-up plan in life. I have no experience working in restaurants but cooking is one of the few things I am good at, and I would be taking a one year program at a trade school anyway.

Only thing I've heard related, was a guy I knew, worked as an engineer on an oil rig. No expense was spared since it all had to be flown in by helicopter anyway. Steaks every night sort of thing. You'd probably make a lot of money doing something like that. Idk how good you'd have to be to do it.

Yeah, I would never want to work in a restaurant, the shekels are in remote work sites and the jobs aren't that hard to get as long as you're okay with three week rotations. On that note, the meals absolutely need to be top of the line, good food is the only enjoyment these guys have for those three weeks, if the food was sub-par you would have a fucking riot.

Inchon, Korea, 1950. I was the best cook Uncle Sam ever saw, slinging hash for the Fighting 103rd. As we marched north, our supply lines were getting thin. One day a couple of GIs found a crate, inside were six hundred pounds of prime Texas steer. At least it once was prime. The Use date was three weeks past, but I was arrogant, I was brash, I thought if I used just the right spices, cooked it long enough but I went too far. I over seasoned it. Men were keeling over all around me. I can still hear the retching, the screaming. I sent sixteen of my own men to the latrines that night. They were just boys.

how fucking old are you? what are you even doing here?

I find the thought of eating in places like that really cosy. It probably isn't though.

Happy Festivus!

I once spent a magical summer as a cook in a logging camp. And by cook I mean male prostitute
