'You better believe I wore the "baby sharp" hat everyday': Clever line cook gets snubbed by a humorless manager, makes their own fun by wearing the joke on their uniform

It's important to keep some semblance of 'fun' in the workplace because that's the only thing that's getting you (and your coworkers) through your workday. But like every group project in middle school, there's always going to be a Debbie Downer in your group, determined to squash any good-natured fun that falls outside of the rulebook. 

I'm convinced that those humorless folks grew up with one job title on their mind: Manager. 

While it's not true across the board, most managers can be a real bummer in the workplace, just like the unfunny manager in our next story which takes place in a jaunty kitchen. Poised to pass the workday with flawless fun, one clever line cook started poking fun at their callouts for a knife on the floor. As many people know, the kitchen can be a dangerous place–with knives flying all around and burning hot surfaces–but this line cook wasn't put out by the dangers. In fact, they quirkified the standard kitchen warnings and made them their own fun version.

Scroll onward to see how their humorless manager reacted when they found out the cooks were calling the knives, "sharps", and how this snarky line cook kept the comedy alive in the kitchen afterward.
