I've never worked in a restaurant, but Drew has and I'm sure he'll have something to say about the subject of bosses in kitchens. I know there are a lot of bad bosses in retail...but really, there are just a lot of bad bosses PERIOD. I've spoken with so many people in office settings who are miserable. Frequently, it's because they feel completely unimportant and unappreciated. How hard is it to say "thank you" to someone, anyway?? Anyway, glad you like my idea. If you know anyone in the television industry, please forward my post. Thanks again, Janet Jermaine,

Gordon Ramsey on Kitchen Nightmares did this A LOT. He would notice that bosses were ruining the morale of the kitchen staff, which led to lousy food, so he would also coach them into making them better leaders. But a show focused on bad bosses exclusively--brilliant! I think it should focus on retail establishments mainly--too many bad bosses there. This is a good idea.
