Are you a chef or do you know any IRL? What is it about that particular industry that attracts degenerates? I'm not saying all chefs are degenerate but theres a strong correlation. I know one who went to culinary school and went on to work in several kitchens. He was a heavy all day drinker, smoker, drugger, tatted up miscreant. He was like that before becoming a cook though. I remember on my off days I'd go to his place and we'd be pounding whiskey shots and smoking all day and come 3 or 4 o clock he'd be like "alrite I got work in a few, see you guys later". I was like wtf they'd fire me if I show up like this. Then he'd get off after midnight and we'd start drinking again.

Lack of formal procedural employment procedures, high turnover rate.

Yea I remember he just walked away from at least a couple jobs and he'd have another job in a few days. He says he would just go to a restaurant and prove he could do shit and they would hire him.

My first job was at a restaurant I wasn't always a heavy smoker or drinker since I started working in a restaurant at times it can get stressful due to stupid customers and shitty waitresses. I normally smoke a joint after my shift to get me though my day and once I'm done I go to a bar or one of my friends house have a few drinks and repeat.

i'm a steward in a conference hotel with two fine dining venues and a banquet hall that seats 300. none of the people i work with on the production staff would i consider to be degenerate.
they screen people pretty thoroughly before hiring and have exceedingly high standards for everything because the company that bought and paid for the hotel regularly hosts people with more money than god.

hotel chefs usually seem to have their shit together, probly because they generalyl tend to pay alot more.
I knew a guy who got a job as head chef at a hotel at 22 and was making 150k+ a year

It's the same thing in food service all around. It's more often than not a high paced and stressful environment in a commonly shitty work environment.
We use alcohol drugs sex and other forms of "degeneracy" as a form of catharsis. But as a result of all this shit I've made some of the strongest friendships because of it.
