Culinary school?
I am just finishing up an internship in the business world and the thing is… I don’t want to do what my managers do for the rest of my life.
I don’t want to project manage… I don’t want to sit in front of a computer all day and I don’t want to work for the company I do now ever again
So am I wasting my time finishing up my four year business degree?
I have two full years left but so far no student loans…
See I love to cook.. but I am afraid that if I do something like working in a restaurant I would lose my love for cooking..
So what would be your opinions about this matter?

A more reasonably priced culinary course is a 2-year offering at Los Angeles Trade Tech College (“LATTC”) for $975 total.
The average annual starting salary for a chef in downtown Los Angeles is around $30,000 to $35,000 or $14.00 per hour.
Good luck!
Have you considered managing your own restaurant? It would combine a love for cooking and the time you have spent obtaining a business degree.
If transferring is a possiblity, University of Houston’s Conrad N. Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management came to mind. I don’t know the program specifics, so I would recommend that you inquiry about it: http://www.hrm.uh.edu/default.asp
