With Thought, Care And Testosterone
BIGOTRY, RESTAURANT | RIGHT | FEBRUARY 6, 2009
Female Conference Attendee: “Where’s the cook? This food is amazing, and I want to give my regards to the cook.”
Me: “That’s great to hear; if you wait a moment, I’ll get him out of the back.”
(I return with the cook.)
Me: “This is [Cook], and he is our head cook.”
Female Conference Attendee: *looking behind the head cook* “No, seriously, where’s the cook? I need to talk with her.”
Cook: “Ma’am, I am the cook. How can I help you?”
Female Conference Attendee: *looking askance* “You are NOT the cook. You cannot BE the cook. The food here is so wonderful, so full of love it MUST be cooked by a woman.”
Cook: “All right, you caught us. The real cook has her day off today. We’ll thank her when she gets back tomorrow.”
Female Conference Attendee: “Yes, you will.” *muttering as she walks away* “Men who cook… sheesh.”
