'A chef... called the grill "Hamburger Helpless"': 25+ Chefs and waiters who kept their back-of-house coworkers laughing

There's always at least one person in every workplace who can't help but make everyone laugh. This is the kind of person that people say "lights up every room they walk into." They just immediately begin cracking jokes and lightening the mood. This kind of person is especially appreciated in high-stress environments---like the back of house at a busy restaurant. Back-of-house, sometimes abbreviated as BOH, refers to all of the workers behind the scenes, like chefs, meal preppers, and dishwashers. The front-of-house staff, like waiters and the host or hostess, have their own stuff going on, mainly dealing with all those customers. In the BOH, chefs have to deal with each other, and all of those big personalities can make this an interesting environment to work in.

These people shared the funniest moments they can recall while cooking up burgers and chopping up veggies. When you're around the same people for 12 hours straight, all yelling in each other's ears and commenting on each other's dishes, you can't help but form some friendships.
