restraint.

I have heard it noted, that many young chefs lack restraint.  I should should either have a good handle on restraint or be restrained by the end of this year, as one guy in my class is trying to sell me an assault charge.  I really hope that he gets shot soon.  Hey, if it's going to happen, let it happen when it will get him out of my class.  It doesn't have to kill him, just let him run his mouth to somebody that will shoot him in the leg or something.  So full of himself, I can't help but wonder what it's like to be that awesome.  Please note, he has geared his commentary toward making my days worse, has a problem with almost everybody in class, and almost everybody in class wishes he weren't there.

I hope that he's one of the people Chef was talking about when he told me that our class was one of the worst groups he's seen.  He also thanked me for letting him vent, it was very cool to feel trusted by someone so highly regarded, as normally nobody would directly express how horrid a bunch of lunatics their students are.  I also was bummed to see somebody who cares and gives so much upset by these jerks.  He has to deal with these specific examples of what is bad in the universe for just one fifth as long as I do this term.  I thought that it would get progressively better after the first set of labs, but holy cow, was I ever wrong.  I was mad about the behavior of the group that I was in last time, but to be trapped with somebody who made it so clear that he is a douche bag on the first day?  Worse.  There are some very big egos in this place, many unwarranted.  I hope that I don't pick up any bad habits via osmosis.

Two more days of what should have been an awesome class.  Ruined by idiots and assholes.  The educations of the people that care and are competent and deserving are being compromised. 

I can't wait to go home for the summer.  I just need to line up some work, and a place to stay here in the fall.  29 more days of class, then I can take a vacation from this vacation/nightmare.  I'm not happy that I'm thinking about this dickhead and his influence in my world right before bed.  I hope he gets a flat tire on the way in Monday.
