Depends on what kind of a cook. Fast food cooks(McDonald's, Wendy's, etc.)are a lot different than a line cook(Texas Roadhouse, Applebee's, etc.). Neither are easy but a line cook is very fast paced, critical communication between the grill cook, flat-top cook, and the very stressful fry cook. Not to mention timing, not to cross contaminat different kinds of food, able to tolerate extreme heat for long periods of time, and it's extremely stressful. Especially on Sunday's church crowds come in at the same time. That's when you know if you can hack it or not. Trust me!
