I've always wanted to be a chef, but I'm not too good at cooking.

I can understand that. It takes patience in the beginning. Most people just think of it as glamorously coming up with unique dishes that win awards, but being a chef is being professionally trained in all aspects, even food preparation. Would you have a cuisine you'd focus on?

I like Mexican cuisine for sure!

It does have a rich history.. You'd be contributing to something that had its beginnings over 9,000 years ago, in agricultural Mayan communities! But more importantly, to become a chef, you don't need to feel obligated to go to a formal institution for training. You can apprentice under another chef to earn your knowledge.

That's interesting, I didn't know that.

Yeah, and you'd need to realize there's a bit of a hierarchy. So, there's a sous-chef, who deals specifically with food prep. To become your own head chef, you'd probably be a sous-chef for someone for a while. Which is good, you'd need the experience, and you'd still be second-in-command in the kitchen. Or you could even be "chef de partie," where you just handle a specific area of production.
