As a veteran Subway Sandwich Artist, the feeling of Post-Traumatic Chef Disorder (PTCD) is like carrying an invisible weight that nobody else can see, a lingering echo of the sandwich line that haunts you long after you’ve clocked out for the last time. It’s not just about the stress of the job. It’s the way those years behind the counter have carved themselves into your nervous system, like a bread knife slicing through a fresh Italian Herbs & Cheese loaf.
The flashbacks hit without warning. You’re standing in a grocery store, reaching for a bag of spinach, and suddenly the fluorescent lights feel too bright, the air smells faintly of deli meat, and you’re back there—gloves on, apron tight, the lunch rush roaring like a freight train. You hear the phantom chime of the door sensor, the impatient shuffle of customers, and the relentless ding of the toaster oven. Your hands twitch, instinctively reaching for a nonexistent guacamole scoop or a mayo bottle. You’re not in the store anymore; you’re back at the prep station, slicing tomatoes with military precision, hearing a customer bark, “No onions, I said no onions!” even though you’re alone in aisle 7.
You’ll be at a barbecue, holding a burger, and suddenly you’re mentally back in the kitchen, calculating how many slices of turkey would fit on a six-inch versus a footlong, or wondering if you remembered to restock the jalapeños. You catch yourself apologizing to no one for not having avocado that day. Your friends laugh when you instinctively ask if they want their sandwich “to go,” but they don’t get it—you’re not fully here. Part of you is still trapped behind that counter, forever folding deli paper around that sub.
Thought it was funny how he confronted the guy who “tortured”(mentored) him and the dude was completely unapologetic. His whole mentality is very much a him problem.

Living with the guilt is the hardest part for me. I joined up after Subtember 11th because I wanted to make a difference. What a joke. Still feel like I let down that kid who wanted extra pickles. My C.O. told me to short him because the tray was empty and we were too slammed to restock. I didn't have time to think, I was just following orders.
Just a fucking kid. I still remember his eyes. The way he looked at me. Like he was asking "why?". I still don't have an answer for him. Maybe I never will.

The cinematography is great. The plot and the character's motivations make very little sense though and there's at least one episode where it's literally one continuous shot of the characters shrieking at each other with no story progression.

In the first season the main character mostly serves construction workers sandwiches. They are just hungry and don't care if something is 100% perfect and exquisite as long as they get a meal on their lunch break. Our hero spergs out about a bunch of little things that his customers would never notice or care about, and stresses out his employees and the viewer. The black girl is a Mary Sue that our protagonist likes and trusts for no reason, and she's allowed to do anything she wants and get away with making outrageous alterations to his business without permission. The writers are too scared and woke to add any sexual tension between them so it never makes sense why the main character doesn't fire her.
Then in the second season he completely sells out and rapes his brother's restaurant by completely gutting it, making it pretentious and faggy, and eliminating any trace of his brother's legacy which makes no sense because it's the whole reason he was there in the first place.
I never watched the third season.

That guy was the only one that wasn't waxing poetically about how cooking in a restaurant is some higher calling for making memories for rich assholes.
They have that sign EVERY SECOND COUNTS and in the 2nd season I thought it was how it's important to spend time with loved ones cause one day they'll be gone. In the next 2 seasons I began to wonder what exactly the writers thinks that phrase means. That you should spend your every waking hour in a kitchen peeling the skin of grapes for rich fucks?
Also, Sydney is such an entitled cunt, the moment she's not the center of attention, she's ready to drop everything and leave.

I mean you know how poos have no sense of social space or interaction? The way they invade spaces without any regard to others? Hit up girls and harass them, and try to play tough guy with men before crawling away, and then do it over and over again completely oblivious that they’re the problem? Think theyre funny, not irritating? Literally shitting up the streets (and catalogue)?
Oh yeah. Its definitely Indian. It’s Jeet spam.

There's a type of person who only feels good when they're doing a good job for someone else and earning praise. They always serve others and sacrifice their own time and expectations just to get hear "good boy". Notice how Carmy is fine until he somehow fails to keep someone else happy, then he starts going insane. He NEEDS people to recognize that he's doing a good job to feel like his life matters at all. So when he tried his hardest working in shitty conditions just to have the soilent head chef berate and bully him, it was like PTSD inducing trauma for someone like Carmy.
