Line cooks are doing three jobs for one paycheck. Prep? You. Cooking? You. Plating? You. Restocking? You. Cleaning? Also you. Staff gets cut. Service stays the same. And somehow the expectation is still: “Keep up.” That's not efficiency. That's survival. Good cooks aren't burning out because they can't handle the kitchen. They're burning out because they're being asked to carry the whole thing.
