I assume one becomes a chef because they have a love for cooking and food and the artistry involved, but I can’t think of anything more eroding to that love of the craft than the kind of working day I see chefs and other kitchen staff go through. It seems to an outsider like me that it’s basically a shift-length panic attack, every day. But that can’t be the case, or no one would do the job!
This is quite common for people with ADHD (not saying you have it). They need novelty and excitement to thrive, otherwise they get bored. So that’s one example of a person who might want these stressful jobs.
I’m not diagnosed, but feel I have a lot of those traits.
