New life calls for a new outlook!

Welcome to my first of many post.  As I stated in the about me section, I separated the military a few weeks ago to pursue a dream/goal, becoming a Chef!  I am a full time student in a Culinary Institute and so far so good.  I have been cooking for quite sometime now, mainly at home.  I am not one of these "Food Network" Celebachef.  I want to learn to be the fastest, skilled, master of my domain, kind of Chef.  Hard nose, take no shit manager but puts out top end, time and time again.  Happy customers=profit and at the end of the day, money rules the world.  I do understand that this is not a get rich quick job, not in it for that.  I am in this for the passion I have for food.  Looking at this culinary world from a Security point of view.  Odd at times, when we talk about supervision and managing.  When you manage and supervise 100's of fresh out of high school, think they know everything punks, its nice to see a tempo shift.  I understand this is going to take some growing for me, hell I haven't been in the food industry since 1996, when I worked at a rib shack to make my car payment after high school.  What I want out of this blog?  To document and seek advice from some of the top chef's in the industry.  Will it happen who knows, this world (Culinary) is based off of networking.  I will also be writing about food, the food I cook, the places we (my wife and I) eat at, and why we ate it.  I look forward to sharing my adventures with all of who ever reads this blog and look forward to the advice and experience that some of you have to offer.
