Overcooked

Jeff has managed Parker's Table & Bar for twenty-seven years. He knows the shortcuts, the staff, the regulars, and every way a shift can collapse before noon. He shows up anyway.Out back, it's caffeine, profanity, and a crew held together by mutual suffering and stolen fries. The kitchen runs on spite and smoke breaks. The servers treat hygiene like a suggestion and side-work like a rumor. Boomer arrives with an expired VIP card and no intention of paying full price. Corporate wants to "elevate the brand." The health inspector has opinions.Jeff has seen it all. He'll see it again tomorrow.A fun, tongue-in-cheek read for anyone who's ever punched a clock in a joint held together by stubbornness and a side-eye approach to customer service.Come for the disasters. Stay for the staff you'll recognize immediately. Just don't ask about the ranch dressing.
