Last Supper
We are watching Real Hell's Kitchen at the moment, a documentary about the stress that goes with the restaurant industry, sometimes leading to alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. I used to be a dishwasher in a fancy restaurant when I was a student, I remmeber how stressful it could be, especially since I was the lowest form of life in the kitchen (but the pressure on the others was tremendous too). It inspired me so much that I wrote a short story about it in a creative writing course during my undergraduate studies, rewriting the account of Last Supper through the lives of a kitchen staff, where the head chef/Christ was dying of a cocaine overdose. It was very appreciated. I might "publish" it here one day.

C'est pas n'importe lequel "fancy restaurant", la cheffe a quand même gagné un prix de meilleur livre par une femme chef au monde depuis que tu y as lavé la vaisselle. Et publie donc, faut pas laisser ses lecteurs dans le noir.
Ahh you guys should have seen the kitchen of the buffet... you would have died of a heart attack with what we do back there!
