Coasters for Line Cooks Under $10
Big laughs, small price tag. The perfect coasters for the line cooks in your life without breaking the bank.
Why Coasters for Line Cooks
Line cooking is the backbone of every restaurant. You're underpaid, overheated, and somehow still proud of every plate.
Every time you set your drink down, you see a little reminder that you're not alone in this corporate circus. Coasters are the unsung heroes of desk accessories - functional, unassuming, and now finally funny. They protect your desk from water rings while protecting your psyche with a well-timed joke.
About the $10 Budget
Let's be honest—you're not trying to win Employee of the Year with this gift. You're here because HR announced a Secret Santa with a $10 limit, or you need something for that coworker whose name you definitely know (it's... Steve? Maybe?). These gifts say 'I acknowledge your existence and chose chaos' without requiring you to skip lunch for a week.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are $10 gifts actually good or just sad?
- Depends on the gift. A $10 gift card feels like you gave up. A $10 coaster that says 'This Meeting Could've Been an Email' feels like you understand their soul.
- What's the best sub-$10 gift for Secret Santa?
- Something funny and universal. Avoid anything that requires knowing their taste (candles, snacks) and lean into shared office suffering. Everyone relates to hating Mondays.
- What are the coasters made of?
- Ceramic top with a cork bottom. The ceramic absorbs condensation, the cork protects your desk, and the design protects your sanity.
- Are these about the rush?
- Some are. Friday night service gets its due.
