Random Thought #217: Fry-Cook GöDD

I wouldn’t call myself a “good cook.” I rarely cook since I’m disappointed by my own meals never turning out how I imagine. Yet, at my job where I make fast-food, I’ve gotten multiple compliments from people about my food. Someone even called me the “GOAT” while another shouted into the store that I deserved a raise.

I really appreciate those people..

But it’s still kinda funny that something I feel lacking in is something I’ve been receiving praise for. It helps that I have an actual kitchen with prepped ingredients, but I don’t necessarily think that’s where the difference in my cooking comes from. It might sound cliché, but I legitimately make all my food with Love. I kinda feel like SpongeBob in that sense.

It’s easy to not care when getting flooded with DoorDash orders from people you’ll never see, but then I remember my worst days when all I wanted was some good fast food, only to get the worst burger in my Life convincing me I really Am in Hell…

So that’s why I try so hard on cheap food no one really has actual expectation for. I may not be the quickest, and many people won’t notice the effort, but the people who do need some Love will at least get a faceless taste from Me.
