    Nope, I will simply decline to offer my services to the Kingdom for the
duration of this (and possibly future) reigns. If they want short order
cooks to prepare their feasts, fine, that's their choice. I don't do HoJo's.
I don't sling hash. You want good food, I'll give you good food. You want a
Waffle House blue plate special, go talk to somebody else.
    I can always cook for my local group and households. Fewer people,
better budget, a WHOLE lot more flexibility regarding dishes (I can actually
do a REAL Frutti di Mar antipasto without making people yak when they find
out there's squid, octopus, and conch in it). I might actually get some time
to go do the things I never get to do, what with always being in the
kitchen. Gee, wonder what shopping's like these days . . .
    But I will certainly not bust my butt for people who have such a low
opinion of my chosen field of endeavor. Besides, it would be much too
discouraging to serve Bistec Ajado to someone who couldn't tell it from beef
jerky.
