Anyway, this is a pointless back and forth so see you the next time you pull something like this again.
 

[BIONIC]

Where did I call you a racist? You do however have shit understanding of race/racism, just check the last reason why you were banned, or any other posts of yours that I have quoted in the past.
Yes the fact that you're not black excludes you from certain things a discussions. Do you think you should be able to say nicca free of consequence? How about a discussion about whether or not black people should say nicca, you think you have a voice in that discussion? If some black people called Cadace Owens a "house nicca" do you think you should be able to do so as well?

"Subordinate" ah are you feeling oppressed because you can't question someones blackness? Poor you.

 Gotta defend those imaginary skinfolk (who ain’t kinfolk).

[Averon]

These non-POC allies sometimes gets a bit uppity. Enzom21 is doing what any good emissary of blackness would do and reminding them their place, which is usually shutting the hell up.

[HaughtyFrank]

Enzom is worried that he'll lose his job if everyone can question someone's blackness. That's his thing! It's really cultural appropriation when you think about it!

Maybe its nobodies 'job' to interrogate people about what skin colour they are?
Maybe nobody should be calling someone a "house nicca" in 2019?
Maybe "Its okay for me to say that, I'm _____" is barely one step removed from "Its okay for me to say that, some of my best friends are ____"?
Maybe what someone is saying is more important than who they claim to be, and attacking someones argument and attacking a poster are different things?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/february-wrasslin-ot-this-is-where-the-big-boys-play-huh.97040/post-17728595

This has been a fucked up week. My best friend's who I love with all my heart have been trying to have a baby for the last two years. A couple of days ago, 4 months into the pregnancy, the baby's heart stopped beating. She had it removed today. I nearly had a breakdown from stress at being overworked and realized how much I have neglected everyone I love and care about while all that was happening, even went to a private mental health hospital to see what I need to do to get checked in. Kinda resigned at work but said give me a few weeks to get my shit together. They said I can take as long as I need and the door will always be open but I feel like a total cunt because those guys are struggling. One of the most wonderful people I have ever met is pulling 70+ hour weeks, relapsed into alcoholism and is risking destroying his family because of it and he has a 2 month old baby. So I feel like I've abandoned them when they are already fucked, even though if I stay I'll probably neck myself within a fortnight. I start studying full time finishing a masters in 2 weeks too. Fun stuff.

I'm gonna watch Onita vs Funk for the thousandth time and on Tuesday fuck off north for a week and camp in a secluded area by one of the most wonderful rivers I have ever seen and get my fucking head straight. Fucking christ.

Cheers, friends. You know how much I love you guys.

I've been through much worse over the years and have always gotten through it. Just need to recenter and reconnect with myself and whats important before being able to get back into it and move forward in a more balanced way.

Just terrified about what could happen with my friends at work and the pressure they are already under. If any of them break because of the extra pressure my leaving puts on them, I won't be able to live with myself. Why I decided to take a break from mental health work to help launch a restaurant is beyond me. What an absolute nightmare hell of an industry.

Anyone considering cheffing or hospitality work in general should seriously, seriously think things through and do the research. EVERYONE abuses drugs and alcohol very heavily just to get through each day it is so rough.

I would say the owners have invested something like 1.2 million AUD into developing and establishing it and outside of the holiday period we have probably been losing around 20K a month at best. Thing is the restaurant is always busy, in a 20 mile radius we are in the top 10 restaurants on every metric type site etc. The operating costs are just unfeasible and we had a shit head chef who wasted a LOT of money on stupid bullshit for a long time. I would still consider doing something like a food truck or a BBQ place that opens on weekends where you only need a couple of people and don't have to consider rent etc but yeah. Its a fucked industry with razor thin margins.

As far as the work itself goes, over a few months I went from being a kitchen hand doing odd jobs to hosting the restaurant and acting as sommelier to chef, with no experiences or qualifications. For me, the most rewarding work was in the kitchen. It is a fucking HELLISH job that nobody will really understand until they are behind the line and 10 dockets pop up at once and you somehow have to get 40-100 meals out at a high standard in 15-30 minutes, making sure dozens of things are perfect all at the same time and then when finally all that food goes out, another 8 dockets have come in and it just never stops... But there is a masochistic pleasure in it and the connected and familial feeling everyone has in the kitchen is very profound and addictive. "We got through that fucking nightmare together, lets go have a few lines and a drink." Saying all that, I was thrown in the deep end hardcore. I'm not a chef, I just know how to cook rather well so they through me in to a chef de partie role during the busiest period of the year. There is a massive difference between cooking for yourself and working the line in a commercial kitchen.

Masterchef, food networks etc glamorize this stuff big time. If the seriously insane pressure and pace, clocking off at 1 to drink and fool around with drugs and sex (because you no longer no anyone you previously knew outside the restaurant), 10+ hour shifts with no breaks etc sounds appealing to folks, don't let me dissuade you. There IS something about it satisfying in a really masochistic and different way, but fuck me. Don't let the glamor shit surrounding it bring you in. This fell into my lap because it is basically next door to my place and I love fine dining and wine and knew our former head chef.

Anyways, thanks for listening. I won't clog up the thread with any more of my bullshit.

What the fuck is a “sommelier to the chef”? Does this dude pick out the box wine the chef uses for the meat sauce or what?

As a real sommelier, that line gave me a good chuckle.

don't know why you're calling me a fool, i asked a very simple question, with logic behind it. if steam and XBL, products of american companies, are getting away with being open to iranians, why is the situation different for EA?

Phew. Half my family is Chinese. So 22 is a "certain age" for some of those mainland Shanghainese grandmas. They embraced me like I was a real son in part because I married "mei mei" while she was still fertile and ready to pop out grandkids, yet big sister at that time was already a 34 year old unmarried "crone" who they probably think sells charms to ward off evil (she's a scientist and patent attorney and vastly more accomplished academically than my wife, but, NO GRANDKIDS!). They gave up on big sis at like, 28. She's over! NEXT!

My mother-in-law used to lecture my wife to be nicer and kinder and gentler and more feminine to me in case I left her and she grew old alone in a San Francisco attic or something. Which was actually a pretty great deal for me in theory. However, in practice Mrs. Stinkles was already second generation, New Jersey, 80s hair whatever moms.  She'd come home and tell me, "LOL MOM SAID TO BE NICER TO YOU! HA!
