Gifts for Employees - Tote Bags for Line Cooks
You work in the heat, burn yourself daily, and somehow keep tickets moving when everything comes in at once.
Why This Works
Line cooking is the backbone of every restaurant. You're underpaid, overheated, and somehow still proud of every plate.
Your commute bag is a daily statement piece whether you like it or not. Instead of a boring black laptop bag or a free tote from a conference, why not carry something that makes people on the train do a double-take? These bags hold everything you need while broadcasting exactly how you feel about Monday mornings.
