Nope.

The business insurance usually requires drug free or zero tolerance policies, especially with forklifts, unmanned delivery robots, trucks, conveyors, and all other hazardous warehouse conditions around.

And after 5 years you start to have feet, knees and leg issues. My sister worked at (very)good restaurants for six years, there is a reason why she started college at 23. It got easier when she got to 'second', since she could reserve herself the "easy" cleaning tasks and the inventory, but still.

I’d love to hear more about your experience working in a professional kitchen.
