    Might I recommend Anthony Bordains' "Kitchen Confidential." The wife told me bits of it when she read it years ago. I recall one anecdote of his where a bride at a wedding went into the kitchen to see how dinner was coming along, and Bordain found himself outside banging her.

      Bourdain wasn't the one banging her. He was a fry cook at the time, working at a two-bit restaurant in Provincetown, MA, and he witnessed the head chef going at it with her.

      His first job out of CIA was working at the Rainbow Room up in 30 Rock. His first month, he was harassed by an alcoholic gay kitchen manager, until one day he stabbed the guy's hand when he went in for a grab.

        Speaking of Tony, he keeps it short and to the point in this article.

Off-color comment, physical activity, whatever. There was at least SOME dialogue that would be frowned upon in today's world. And I guarantee it's still going on.

            I never witnessed or heard about that at the places I worked. LOTS of innuendo, even some blatant comments, maybe a grab-arse here and there, and of course, all restaurant people do is date each other because of the odd hours/schedules, so that always leads to something.
            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                Dr. Mrs. was the hostess at a restaurant in Sedona one summer. According to her the kitchen staff (all men in the twenties) and waitresses (all girls in their teens) completed a perfect round robin in the 2 months she worked there. It's the most over-sexed environment I've ever heard of and I've been in theater.

                It's got everything you need: aggressive males, females chosen for looks, odd hours, terrible working conditions, esprit de corps, and easy access to alcohol. They also get the "don't hit on the guests" speech from Dirty Dancing, so there are only so many options.

                  "Waiting" is more of a documentary than most people realize.

                            Usually the Globe gives you 10 free ones a month. Try googling in using ESPN and Boston Globe.

                            Bucci was a bad boy. Female anchors cut short maternity leave for fear of losing job. One anchored a Sports center while having a miscarriage.

                              She anchored while she was going through a miscarriage? That’s horrible.
