i just started working as a dishwasher in a japanese restaurant in a major metropolitan city....

what am i getting myself in for, Veeky Forums bros?

Be prepared to wash dishes, clean pans, and scrub utensils..... Those fucking crazy japs man....

nope, not wanting this to be a racist shitposting thread. i don't have to clean any pans, thank god. the worst is the rice cooker, and that's only twice a day. all of the food prep is done on the plate that goes to the customer, cold sushi, some noodles but not made in big batches, only sent out in individual hot bowls, there isn't a lot of cooking going on, thank zen.

no baking, holy shit, thank zen.

but i'm thinking of saying "tsundere" to the head chef when he tries to mess with my mind, like he has started doing.

I was making fun of you user, not the Japanese.
You're a dishwasher, expect to wash dishes.
Don't speak Japanese if you don't speak Japanese, you'll look like an idiot.

Sounds like a pretty easy dish gig, man.

come on! i sound like an idiot in this thread, but i've been a dishwasher a million times at worse places. i'm 27 years old with a college degree, i know, it's pathetic, but everyone at the restaurant speaks fluent japanese, and i'm just hoping to glean some cultural cues to help me along my way.

total gaijin here, but i really enjoy the formal approach my coworkers bring to work. no cussing, no yelling, no complaining, and they help me at the end of the shift, and everyone cleans their own stations so i don't have to feel lilke a slave to them. i really like it.

would highly recommend working at a japanese restaurant

Do not speak a language you do not speak or are not actively learning, you will get made fun of mercilessly.

If you are 27 and have a college degree why are you working as a dishwasher? Get an online TEFL qualification and do better work somewhere more interesting.

Best dishing spot I ever had was at a little cafe and tea room that was part of an arboretum. It was a set menu and we got most of our business off tour buses so we always knew exactly how many and when they were coming.
Worst dish pit I ever worked in was a hundred seat casino buffet. Fuck that racket.

I work in the most popular steakhouse in my state, and it shows in the volume of dishes I receive during the 5 hours we are open. 80 tables, usually full all day on Fridays, weekends, and Wednesdays. The kitchen itself shits out more pots, pans, containers, utensils, and mixing/blending apparatuses every 10 minutes.

There is literally no time after the prep stage where I am not rushing to keep up with the flow of dishes.

Wow thanks for your story of washing dishes. So interesting lmao.
All of you faggots are fucking nothing I'd spit on you if I met you in real life

How insecure are you?

>if someone hates you its because they hate themselves
stop with your bullshit pop psychology

Show me on the doll where daddy hurt you

No seriously. OP asked what he was in for. I gave an example of my work as a dishwasher. Then you came in with your posturing. If you aren't trying to compensate for something, then I don't know what's up.

The person you're replying to isn't me though. Unlucky faggot

Okay, but how does that change the point? Just change the "you" to "he" and "your" to "his"

OP here

i'd reposition your little jaw in one swift motion.


gtfo out of this thread, shit ass white trash retard. i'm not asking for your ignorant opinions on anything. gtfo. also, i'd chop off your fat wife's worthless head, i'd love it. i'd post the webm right here, so go to sleep, faggot. my foot is up your wife's cunt and she loves it, she's twisting and squirting all over the place!! now she's dead, which is what you wish you could have, but you'll still be struggling and crawling upon this earth like the stupid insect you are. fuck you.

a shitty job

are you ok

busta wurf

I work in a ramen restaurant and its pretty nice. you have to shout "IRASHAIMASE" whenever a customer walks in and if you are asking someone to do something for you, you say "onegaishimas" so they don't care if you try saying other shit in japanese. They just act impressed if you say it correctly. If you are a native English speaker and they are all proper nip imports they might ask you to pronounce difficult English words like "mayonnaise" and act all impressed again.

Don't listen to the other guy. I've worked in loads of places with majority people of other race (Ethiopian restaurant, call centres with loads of Indians, etc) and they love it when you make an effort to learn a bit of their language. They may joke at your pronunciation at times and things like that but it's all in good faith. I also have a bachelors in Japanese and been there loads of times and the Japanese are among the most supportive of others learning their language. Expect alot of sugois for your crappy Japanese. desu tho "tsundere is pretty weeby and not that common in vernacular outside of wotas

>bachelors

Woah watch out everyone, big mr educated over here lmao. Don't make eye contact with him or his intellect will melt your brain. Lmao. Get the fuck outta here retard you're fuckin nothing

>being this mad at a guy with only a bachelor
>not even Msc
What's wrong with you user?

Mayonnaise is not a difficult word for Japs.

thank you.

i didn't realize how many people would be anti-japan, even on this board. i've found them to be so supportive and open-hearted. the only people in the restaurant i can't stand is the servers, of course. "can you wash the chopsticks (right the fuck now so i can leave right when i feel like leaving)"

but overall, they duck their heads when they work, and of course, they judge me and my efficiency, but so far, they think i'm okay, and served me a nice lunch today, and i like them very much.

the cleanliness is not on par with a lot of other restaurants i've worked at, though, but i'm okay with it, because i don't want to have to clean behind containers and boxes every night when closing. there are different standards in japan, and i'm okay with that. as long as the plates that i send out are clean, and the cookware is the same, nobody needs to know that a cockroach climbed up the wall to chill on the ceiling.

haha it was the same thing the short time i worked as a dishwasher before becoming a cook. always servers who wanted the cutlery washed now so they could finish and go home then walking away without helping by bringing clean dishes back to the kitchen and clearing up some space on the dish rack.

japs are really friendly, dont say weeb shit tho. ask them to teach you some useful kitchen lingo instead.
