My fifth date (and the guy I went on the most dates with thus far) was with a guy who claimed he was a “chief”. Girls will tell ya that when you are wading through the dating waters one of the most highly sought after male professions to date is the chief. (Coming in right before the mechanic, cause most us girls know how much we could give a crap about maintaining our car). Well, he did like to cook but as I soon realized, his official position was “line cook” for a local brewpub. Any illusions of romantic candlelit gourmet dinners and a “bam” of a different nature were replaced with the in’s and outs of the ideal way to cook a beer pretzel and lectures on various types of complimentary mustard. To be fair, it was a good few months before I realized he was not the next Curtis Stone and he did cook me a few very nice dinners. (Although, I found a few stray dog hairs and I am not really inclined to frequent his place of employment anytime soon). Upon reflection, I held out longer on this one to legitimize my online dating experience but like most things in life, things came to there natural conclusions.
Lesson learned: Do not date a guy because of his profession (especially ones that might have starred in they’re own segment of Dirty Dining).
