Anyone who has worked in a kitchen before, or even those who simply like to watch certain cooking shows, will be well aware that chefs, as a whole, tend to be very angry and stressed when they are at work. Whilst there will always be exceptions to the rule, the pressure of preparing great food and commanding numerous sous chefs and KPs at the same time can very quickly get to an individual, and leave them irritable and rude as a result.

It may seem strange that anyone would want to do such a job, but the satisfaction of creating top class food often makes up for the stress they are under during the busiest periods. Furthermore, many chefs work long hours and so very rarely get to see their families or socialise and this can also have an effect on their disposition.

However, being around food all day can be extremely rewarding for those who truly love cooking, and getting things just right will be worth any level of stress or any other sacrifices that are made.

And yet, there are plenty of ways to reduce the stress involved in being a chef and in turn create a calmer and more enjoyable workplace. The right catering supplies and the right organisation can do wonders for the cooking process and even the very best cooks will be slowed down and hindered by poor equipment and poorly arranged kitchens.

Furthermore, newer items of commercial catering equipment may allow a chef and their team to get more done in a more simplified manner, and therefore just taking the time to choose new equipment and work out new processes may be all it takes to remove a little bit of that stress, something that will not only benefit the chefs themselves but also all those that come into contact with them at their busiest times.
