journal #267.

i am a certified culinarian chef.

now i have my goals to receive the certifications:

- certified working chef.

- certified sous chef.

- servsafe.

- haccp.

- certified executive chef - i am still pending on it.

and lastly, certified master chef. shit, it costs 10K to get a test. that test will last for 10 days to complete that exam. 10 days? good lord. there are only 62 certified master chef in the united states of america. do i have desire to become a master chef? no. once i am a chef, i am a chef. that's good enough.

i will study for servsafe and haccp to get those certifications. after that, i will focus on sous chef and working chef as well.

certified executive chef, maybe 5 years later. not now.

that's my goal.
