Eww, doesn't sound like you had too good a time. 9.00 an hour doesn't seem like a lot for all the work it seemed you did, but maybe that's because in CA the min. wage is 7.50 (soon to be 8.00). Although, you'd have to pay me quite a lot before I'd do anything like that.
That's really cool that you're a chef. My sister wanted to be one for the longest time when she was younger, but she grew out of it. I can't cook to save my life. My specialties are pasta and hot chocolate. Plus microwave cooking. I tend to burn things. Although after many many unsuccessful tries, I have become pretty good at making stir fry. I bet you get a lot of ladies in your line of profession, eh?
