fired from sandwhich shop
back in my student days, i needed a saturday job, and as one of my friends Jenni was earning good money in the local sandwhich shop, i decided i'd get a job there too!

the boss asks me in the interview, if i have any experience in cooking, and if i want a career in the catering business? Answer to both questions - NO

Boss asks me if i did catering classes at school! - i reply that i didnt take them, i just wasnt very good at them....

amazingly Boss takes pity on me and gives me a job!

Yay!

Cue next saturday awaiting my orders in the sandwhich kitchen the next weekend!

boss tells me i am to make some sort of pasta...

...so i start making it and boss tells me to add a pinch of salt.. so i do, but boss tells me off saying "in the kitchen - a 'pinch of salt' is much bigger" and demonstrates by taking a HAND-FULL of salt and putting it in the pasta thing i was making! ...

pasta thing actually turned out ok.. so boss tells me to make egg mayo for the rolls.

(using about 20 eggs - alot of egg mayo to be made!)

Boss reminds me to add in a pinch of salt... so remembering back to my earlier lesson.. i put in a handful of salt! ... half hour later boss tastes the egg mayo, and errupts into crazed madness! - i had basically made salt - with a taste of egg mayo!

i get taken off the egg mayo duties and get told to peal and cut up potatoes...

this i could do no problems, until......

i cut this huge potatoe in half without holding onto it, which flys accross the room and hits the boss!... i swear pure acciedental!

im told im trouble and best if i get a cleaning job elsewere!

i lasted a day at that job - and i still cant cook!

i amazed my mate a while back when i asked her which bit of the egg is the yolk!

:(
