You...have....got....to...be...kidding....me.
You mean to tell me someone actually gave you a position of some authority?
What's the world come to?
Besides being Klos' (and now Sage) pimp, I am also the Sous Chef at the 350 room Vail Marriott Mountain Resort and Spa.
My position is second in command underneath the Executive Chef. My responsibilities include supervising the fine dining restaraunt, the room serivce operation, the associate cafeteria, the purchasing department and overseeing any banquet function as well. (We sometimes do plated dinner functions for 800 people.)
I have close to 40 employees that I oversee as well as overseeing 2 other supervisors and 1 other manager.
I really do not do much cooking anymore, I merely make sure that others are doing the cooking correctly along with making sure their other job duties are completed.
My duties also extend outside of the kitchen and into the office where I'm also responsible for maintaining a proper labor cost and food cost. I do payroll for my associates as well as taking care of most disciniplary actions.
All in all I really like my job and the people and environment I work with. Sometimes it really tries my patience but never do I regret having to go to work.
