Not quite. What I got from it was that being in a kitchen is like learning how to learn how to work quickly and efficiently.
I worked through college dishwashing in a kitchen, cleaning hot pans and preparing food for impatient customers. This line immediately resonated with me:
> I still haven’t forgotten what I learned that summer. I learned the best way to sort silverware, dumping it out on the counter with each hand independently grabbing for knives, then forks, then spoons. I learned that I could work my way out of despair.
Based on how you sort silverware, I can tell whether or not you've worked in a kitchen. If you do it the correct way, then I'm also willing to bet you know how to work smart under pressure.
