OMG, I did not mean to come off sounding like that!!!
I will, and have, done everything necessary to "make it happen", no matter how much is on my plate. Remember I said 16 burners, well I needed chopped herbs to finish 4 of my 9 or 10 dishes going. The sous grabs a handful and starts hitting it with one knife, I grabbed another and asked him to hand over his, and watch my station. I took a double knife approach and had it done in seconds, compared to minutes. I got a raise the next day
The "not my job" part came from being union, and you did not want to "take" someone else' s job!!!
Sorry it came out like that, but I totally defend the system!!!
