A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'm often mad lucky and live in an area that I could probably do something similar but to be honest post covid many places pay different.
I work with two guys who like to brag about working in michelin star places, neither of them were paid more than 14.
Today hiring rate is probably 18 and as a Sous chef I make 22. Not amazing but compared to what it was like only a few years ago drastically different.
Still industry sucks and is predatory. Probably can't do it long term.
