dude i wouldn't know how to make a fucking sandwich that tasted good
i was a dishwasher for a while, and i even sucked at that sometimes when it was busy. if i tried to be a cook id be screwed
Probably autistic or some other mental disorder. just wait until he screws up

what kind of fucking restaurant takes orders after the closing time?
where i worked, during the week people would be turned down 5-10 minutes before close. only on busy friday and saturday nights did orders ever come in after the actual close time
