>quesadilla opens when I get it unstuck, spills its contents all over the pan, turning everything into a burnt mess
That was almost enough to make me give up on cooking permanently

Two that happened recently
>1. Making eggs, pan is the exact size of omelette I want so fill it up and get them going
>Try to flip it and it's completely stuck to the bottom
>End up tearing it apart trying to get it out so it's basically scrambled eggs instead'
>2. Making Custard. Leave it a little too long and it ends up grainy with a faint eggy taste

If you used something like grubhub door dash or uber eats, just complain and you'll usually get your money back or as a credit. But also complain about the indian and they might fire him, two bird one stone and all.

>Frosting a cake
>The kitchen is too warm so the cakes layers/icing start slipping/sliding off and won't stay center making it diabetic Leaning Tower of Pisa
>Or the cake/frosting is too cool and won't spread easily and start tearing up the cake layers as you try and spread making everything crumb-y
WHY CAN'T IT EVER BE EASY LIKE ON MY BAKING YOUTUBE VIDEOS?

This happened last night after adding hot Hungarian salami. Girlfriend laughed for 2 full minutes. Had a back up and more salami, so wasn't a complete tragedy

Worked as chef for a company that produced pre-fab school lunch components. Military-style large batch cooking and production line stuff. My boss forced me to cater a fancy event. I'm no slouch, but was definitely out of my wheelhouse. Eggplant rolatti turned out fucking awful, and a batch of garlic parmesan rosemary savory cookies that crumbled to dust at a mere touch. My boss made me put them out anyway.
Some successes, also though. I discovered bacon-wrapped dates are always a crowd pleaser. Some other stuff, too. blah blah blah

>wanted to make mayonnaise with my new fancy stick blender
>was after coming home from work, v tired
>made it
>it's runny and weird
>figured I'd fucked something up and threw it out in case whatever I did could make it unsafe, cleaned up everything, ate whatever dinner it was I was gonna have but with no fresh mayo
>was lying in bed trying to sleep when my brain asked myself if I'd forgot to put the eggs in it
>immediately get up, realise all 12 eggs still in the box, get annoyed at myself, have to go to sleep angry at stupidity and wasting the other ingredients
I made it once at some point after then never bothered again.

I once had to have a sour cream + meat + white rice only burrito because when I went to buy the meat, sour cream & wraps I had incorrectly thought I had tomato, cheese, onion. the amount of spice I used wasn't enough either and most of it didn't stick to the meat it stayed in the meat juice. it tasted like how black people think white people deliberately make food. I almost cried.

You just know everyone told this old cunt white boomer what would happen and he told them to fuck off. Probably his wife recording it to make fun of him for the rest of their lives. I don't understand why he thought surrounding it with burning wood for long enough to turn the wood to ashes wouldn't do the same to the meat.
