Very interesting, however I beg to differ on ‘ Nobody will tell you this, but I will: If you’re thirty-two years old and considering a career in professional kitchens? If you’re wondering if, perhaps, you are too old? Let me answer that question for you: Yes. You are too old. ‘
If you're ambitious, there is an isomorph of this brilliantly brutal essay by Bourdain about your intended field. It would be worth imagining what it would say. http://ruhlman.com/2010/09/so-you-wanna-be-a-chef%E2%80%94-by-bourdain-2/ …

Can you learn a new js lib every week, burn money on bikeshedding like a pro and change your build system every 6 months? Fun!

I would add that even if you are 22, physically fit, and unable to fit in in any other kind of job, ask yourself 'what is the endgame here' . Do you really want to manage restaurants? Because being a cook gets old in a few years, even if you're making union wages.

I actually really dislike this essay and have for a long time. And I know a bit about this industry. You, however, wrote a great essay about how to do what you love. It’s difficult, but doable, you said.

Bourdain's goal was to discourage, Paul G's was to encourage. Both make good models to write our own. Each should be vivid and grounded, to be useful, as Bourdain's is.
