I can promise you that 90% of line cooks don't "love" cooking
Then why do they do it? It's not the hours and the wages...
Remember chef, there's a difference between line cooks and chefs. A great chef is rare and people who are line cooks may never understand our passion for food.
Dude nobody has a passion for making fifty Bloomin' Onions a night unless they have like severe autism or something.
BOH is almost always hiring, which makes it a good fallback if you lose your job. The barrier for entry is pretty much, "Can you get here on time for every shift?" There's a reason that kitchen work is one of the most common jobs for people who have been recently incarcerated.
