Kitchen Nightmares

By just the tip, though - 28/01/2014 17:06 - United States - Grovetown

Today, at work teaching a cooking class, one of the kids asked if they could use a knife to help me chop vegetables. I said no, because it was very sharp and only staff members are allowed to use them. Just as I said that, the knife sliced through the tip of my thumb. FML

YDI, 1) You weren't watching where the knife was cutting and 2) You may have gotten blood on the food. Hope you feel better though :D

How do you know where OP was looking when it happened? It's so sad, OP will never be able to hitchhike the same way again.

Hey, at least the kid will probably never touch a knife again in his life. One less knife-based serial killer in the world. You've paid your dues.

Even though you hurt yourself think about it, if you gave that kid the knife it could've been him. then you would've had more to worry about than your thumb seeing as staff are only supposed to use them

Hey, FYL, but a real-life situation always teaches more than just saying it.

How old are these kids your teaching to cook? I would think to be old enough to take a class one would have to be old enough to handle a knife

Knives? Yes. Very sharp knives? No. Think about teenagers - definitely old enough to learn how to cook, but I wouldn't give them sharp tools to use; much too easy to seriously hurt yourself with if you're goofing around and trying to show off to your friends. Hormones and weapons don't mix.

So? Just one idiot is enough reason to not give them sharp knives.
