The most dangerous cook in the kitchen is the one who always says yes. Close? Yes. Cover prep? Yes. Train them? Yes. Stay late? Yes. Eventually, you're not just the reliable cook. You're the person everyone expects to save the shift. That's when being dependable becomes a problem. Because there's a difference between being a team player and being the person everyone knows they can dump extra work on. Your work ethic is valuable. Your time is valuable too. Are you the “go-to” cook in your kitchen?
