To always maintain a state ofanized readiness and cleanliness in the walk-in and storage areas

To help your fellow cooks when they need it, to bail out a fellow line cook that is in the weeds, to cover for your fellow cook when they are sick, and have their backs, so they protect you in the same way when you need it

To never say That s not my job.
