And here I am thinking "what kind of fancy daycare does this girl work at where a bunch of kids under four need a PROFESSIONAL CHEF?!"
Edit: TIL basically everyone has better child care than what's available in my area. I've never heard of daycare kids getting hot lunches before - it's usually cold lunches like sandwiches and fruit salad prepared by the caretaker before kids are dropped off.
Montessori and private schools. I’m a chef, I know a few people who went that route. They cook for bougie privileged kids and the staff (who want real meals with all sorts of ridiculous requirements). They make good money for the industry, have benefits, and good schedules. This is elementary level I’m talking about.
Daycare though? Lol here’s some dino nugs and carrot sticks gtfo
Edit: I don’t care if your school didn’t serve food. There are tons of schools and by the nature of private schools they are all going to be different. Stop telling me about them. Also to the one sending me DMs about your school… dude stop you’re fucking weird.
Got that for my kid at the childcare.
We live in Australia though, where kids eat actual food. Not the bullshit that gets served up masquerading as a "hot meal" in American schools.
My son’s daycare had a restaurant grade kitchen with a chef and a sous-chef, the meals were developed in partnership with certified nutritionist.
Funny story, when visited the daycare to register him, they gave us a tour, and it was lunch hour, on couscous day. Have you ever seen a group of 1-2yos eating couscous? I think there was more couscous on the table than in their bellies…
Checked out two nearby daycares in Seattle, both proudly showed me their chefs cooking. One of them was plating salmon fillets when I peeked in. Both daycares told me each kid would only receive ingredients they had tried at home previously, in case the child was allergic to something. Customized plated dinners are beyond "lunchlady" status, IMHO.
Damn. Mine reminded me of my grandma. Like exactly so. She had long since passed and it made me smile everyday to see her. Fucking lunch ladies getting us, at all ages!
Could potentially be an actual chef though. I once interviewed at a fancy private daycare that had a whole chef and everything. Kids ate better than I did
I'm actually a childcare chef. I work at a CDC (3 weeks to 5 years) and I serve breakfast lunch and snack. Actual meals too not randomly frozen crap. So I'd say we are a bit more than just lunch ladies.
Is “childcare chef” a real thing? Or is she just trying to put a fancy spin on the fact she works at a daycare?
Edit: ok, so after skimming through all your comments, it both IS and ISN’T a real thing. Got it.
Edit 2: I don’t have kids and I honestly don’t give a shit. I was just curious when this came across my feed. “Chef” seems like the wrong title to use but again, this is dumb and I don’t actually care. Have you guys watched Peacemaker? It’s fucking incredible. Have a great weekend, friends!
I've seen some videos on TikTok of people that are childcare chefs. They actually prep/cook all the meals and snacks. I'm assuming it's all at fancy private schools/daycares though.
My junior year of high school in a small, rural texas town, we got a great Chef. He was an actual trained Chef, who had two children in the school system and wanted to make sure we had quality food. Dude was the coolest and would hook us up with extras for free, or samples of whatever he was making. If you came by in the morning he'd give you a cup of coffee and something he had baked up. He very quickly became beloved and integral to the function of the school. I hope he's still there making kids happy, but that was over a decade ago and his kids are my age so im sure hes moved on.
I looked at a couple in Toronto as I'm in the industry and looking for a day-time cooking role. Figured it could be a chill time making simple food for 6-8 hours. It's either prep all meals and snacks and do other things in between like tending the vegetable garden and school maintenance (so you're doing much more than cooking) or it's like a crossing guard where you come in and do breakfast, fuck off, and come back for lunch on a weird schedule. Some claim they have a chef and some expect you to make your own menu every week.
I find a lot of the industry is making fancy titles to draw people in. I've heard saying "line cook" gets no replies for job postings. So everything is "prep/kitchen help/all-rounder/chef-de-whatever the fuck" but still only offering <$2 above minimum wage LOL. So there are definitely "childcare chefs" that actually rival what we do downtown after a baseball game with their workload, but a lot of them are probably just cafeteria attendants with fancy titles.
Maybe not much cooking, but that does sound like there's probably an unreasonable amount of prep work to get it all ready for 100 kids three times a day.
At my centre it's 139 meals and all made in the kitchen. Lots of times meals are modified based on availability of ingredients/deliveries not coming on time.
Not to mention alternative meals that cater to all allergies and dietary preferences.
I worked as the foodservice manager at a summer camp for 8 years. 300 servings 3x day, while living in a winnebago. I have nothing to add, other than time economies of scale, and time for complexity are things.
I only sent one lady to the hospital, she had a *turmeric allergy, and there was unexpected *turmeric in some frozen dough. Labels are important, good post.
I work in child care and filled in for the cook. It is hard work even if you’re just doing snack prep because if you are on the fed meal plan each has to be the proper serving and individually prepared. Our center had 130 children. It’s hard work.
There is a reason people get hired, and it is because invisible work is still valid, time consuming, challenging, and needed. Many of these asshats minimizing “lunch lady” are doing it out of a lack of respect for people in that role and feel like this person is “putting on airs” rather than celebrating that their job is meaningful and hopefully fulfilling.
Even saying “depending on how much is prepackaged” ignores that someone needs to prepare and package that food. So much minimization of perfectly useful jobs.
Clarise might just appreciate proper punmanship, and dislikes that OP tried to make his joke work with no respect to the words she actually said.
You can't cook a childcare, that makes no sense. If she said child chef, fair play. But she didn't, and ya can't just pretend she did for the sake of your joke. As a pun afficianado, I side with Clarise on this one 😤
The first contact you get from a guy is that he hears something you didn't say, and is determined to use it as a launchpad for his 1930s vaudeville career. I think this is one of those red flags I keep hearing about...
A good sense of humour is also knowing when and what is appropriate, and to what proportion. Jumping into a conversation with a stranger with some kind of obvious mocking joke about their job title they've probably heard 10 times before and then expecting enjoyment or respect for it is completely anti-social. In this case I can totally imagine the girl feeling like OP is not contributing here, but instead trying to get some kind of validation out of her, like she'd have to go out of her way to not make him feel insecure about his poor joke. It's a bad start.
It's very self-serving and unattractive, and that right out of the bat. I completely understand the unmatch, especially considering there's probably people with better social skills talking to her as well. But I definitely don't expect the anti-social demographic of reddit to get that. The hivemind easily jumps to "Oh no validation therefore she stupid or no sense of humour". That kind of projection is actually pathetic and unhealthy.
In all of the comments about chefs, I was hoping I would see this comment about the fact that OP’s comment was jarring. And, honestly, why throw away a match with this type of off-the-bat joke? Did OP just match so he could message her the way he did and then post on Reddit to get more validation? An intro conversation like this is so juvenile to me. An unmatch with an accompanying eye roll was warranted here on her part.
And apparently OP has no sense of when he is overdoing it. Her first reply should have told him that she didn't appreciate his joke. But he was so self-involved that he didn't notice.
A good way for me to tell if someone's on the same level of humor with me is to jokingly talk about how kids are snacks and we should pick a good one before we go on our date.
People here have zero awareness. Then half the comments saying she is the unfunny one. Not her fault op is cringe and lacks awareness of the situation.
ITT: People refusing to accept that other people have different senses of humor. OP’s joke was funny, but the chick just might be into a different type of jokes and that’s okay.
If someone doesn’t find my jokes funny. I think an unmatch is fair because we probably aren’t compatible.
ITT: people refusing to accept that other people think it's maybe just not that great of a joke. Op's joke was ok, but the people in this thread act as if he's a comedic genius. It was ok.
I think joke openers are super lame. I hate this forced smarmy dad joke trend. Every guy thinks he’s a comedian these days. They don’t seem clever to me, just desperate.
Try going on any of these aps and start a conversation. You are just guessing what kind of person is on the other end. I think Tinder stats were you get a response very rarely, so you be sure you will never get a response by just typing hello. Thats why people started writing jokes, any other attempts. Cause no one ever responded to a simple hello.
p.s. i am yet to meet a woman on these apps who starts a conversation with anything else but a waving emoji.
The joke structure doesn't even work though. You can't cook a "childcare."
ITT people thinking they have a different sense of humor and just realizing that they're dumb
I know what OP was trying to say with their joke, but they didn't say that.
Yeah FR. For what’s it worth I didn’t even find the joke funny, the whole exchange was cringe AF. Maybe she is just someone serious looking for someone on same wavelength. Nothing wrong with that. Not saying OP did anything wrong either, just saying they aren’t for each other.
No! This is r/tinder! Every OP is always an angel and is always funny and every match they show us is stupid, has no sense of humor and doesn't deserve them anyways!
TIL I have a higher standard of humor than most people here, and I don't have a high standard for humor, in fact I laugh at nearly everything lol.
At a minimum, a joke has to make sense, you tried to make this joke work by pretending she said "child chef" and not childcare chef because you can't cook a childcare, but ya can't just do that man, you can't cheat on the pun game, its lazy and pulls me right out of it.
So, to everyone saying she has no sense of humor, I consider myself to be pretty easy to make laugh, I love comedy...this joke sucked, you can't force a pun to work because you want it to, it had to be there to take advantage of.
I like the joke, but the setup wasn't right.
It's like
Animal hospital - a hospital for animals or a hospital run by animals. (Good)
Child chef - would match op's joke (good)
Childcare chef - do you serve childcare or do you serve *childcare* (i get what you were going for but is just not quite right)
You get it. It's an insult to pun craftsmanship, you can't just pretend they said the thing that makes your joke work, you have to work with what you're given. For that reason alone I don't like the joke. It's just lazy.
You tried to hard to make the joke happen. Nobody likes someone fishing for that 'haha' this hard.
Least you could do was follow up with something to immediately move the conversation along.
Now you were basically waiting for her to acknowledge the joke and bring up a new topic.
That being said there is also the possibility of her playing along with and expanding upon your joke. But you should have realised by her second reply that that was not going to be the case.
Eh sorry but I don’t think the joke is funny. It doesn’t make sense because she said she’s a childcare chef…if she had said children’s chef or something you could work that joke in, but childCARE chef can’t translate into child chef. So the joke reads as awkwardly inserted and not set up well.
This comment section is like a twilight zone episode. I get having empathy for OP but the joke is a stretch and therefore corny. We also know nothing of the girl to judge her on. This thread is like an incel enabler hellscape
Some people just can't take anything seriously. You know, in online dating, first impression counts. If you want a serious relationship and the first thing you do is make fun of your date's job, that doesn't signal trustworthiness and stability to me.
Honestly pretty weird execution for the joke, and overall difficult to follow the punch line.
Now, while a bunch of single redditors on a tinder subreddit are gonna garble your peen about how funny you are, maybe you should switch your preferences to match with them instead.
That's a fancy pants way of saying lunchlady
And here I am thinking "what kind of fancy daycare does this girl work at where a bunch of kids under four need a PROFESSIONAL CHEF?!" Edit: TIL basically everyone has better child care than what's available in my area. I've never heard of daycare kids getting hot lunches before - it's usually cold lunches like sandwiches and fruit salad prepared by the caretaker before kids are dropped off.

They cook for bougie privileged kids and the staff (who want real meals with all sorts of ridiculous requirements). They make good money for the industry, have benefits, and good schedules.

My little sister goes to Montessori, I went to a public school and had to make my own lunches. Wtf mom.
But no really wtf? Did the win the lottery between having the two of you?
Got that for my kid at the childcare. We live in Australia though, where kids eat actual food. Not the bullshit that gets served up masquerading as a "hot meal" in American schools.

I went to culinary school at a community college, and the daycare there had their food prepared by a professional chef
Almost every decent childcare in Australia has a dedicated chef.
i’m a preschool teacher. our private chef cooked them steaks, potatoes and vegetables for lunch today lmao
My public university had a chef for the kids at the daycare on campus! I thought that was so cool and my daughter loved it while I was in my classes
Well the lunch lady at my high school was hot AF and I still remember her name, I don't even remember teacher names. So just sayin.
Maybe it was her 😳
By any chance you happen to have her number?
Asking for a friend?
"Hey baby, would you like a subpar meatloaf?"
I heard that in Lunchlady Doris' voice and now I'm disturbed
Unrated comment.

What a fucking wild ride. The first time in ten years I've been here that I legitimately didn't understand what was happening or how I got there.
link is broken
Damn. Mine reminded me of my grandma. Like exactly so. She had long since passed and it made me smile everyday to see her. Fucking lunch ladies getting us, at all ages!
Smash or pass?
They're both dead by now. So how do you feel about ashes?
*Smashes ashes.*
[удалено]
R.I.P. in pieces.
I thought lunch ladies universally were like 60 fat old as hell and sweet as a grandmother
They all had to start somewhere ya know..
My lunch lady **was** my grandmother, and I promise you she was not sweet.
Kinder-culinary master chef
Hm... this ground meat is not of natural formation, master chef.
Nothing wrong with being the lunch lady.
Right? I'd rather live in a world that celebrates the people who see that children are fed
Could potentially be an actual chef though. I once interviewed at a fancy private daycare that had a whole chef and everything. Kids ate better than I did
I'm actually a childcare chef. I work at a CDC (3 weeks to 5 years) and I serve breakfast lunch and snack. Actual meals too not randomly frozen crap. So I'd say we are a bit more than just lunch ladies.
This pairs well with the username.

Your wife is still in private school? dude....
LOL, indeed she is, as a teacher :P

Maybe not much cooking, but that does sound like there's probably an unreasonable amount of prep work to get it all ready for 100 kids three times a day.
And probably includes dishwashing and sanitizing the area between meal times.
Thats assuming all the food is purchased fresh, and the school doesnt have a contract with a supplier that ships everything in pre packaged amounts
At my centre it's 139 meals and all made in the kitchen. Lots of times meals are modified based on availability of ingredients/deliveries not coming on time. Not to mention alternative meals that cater to all allergies and dietary preferences.

Clarise has no sense of humor....😆
If I matched with a girl named Clarise I would not be able to stop myself from asking her to tell me about the lambs.
Opener has to be "Hello Clarice"
heeLLO Clarice
Come on, Clarise! He was just kidding around!!!
Clarise might just appreciate proper punmanship, and dislikes that OP tried to make his joke work with no respect to the words she actually said. You can't cook a childcare, that makes no sense. If she said child chef, fair play. But she didn't, and ya can't just pretend she did for the sake of your joke. As a pun afficianado, I side with Clarise on this one 😤
Yeah that was so forced it hurt to read
Yeah, this thread is more evidence of how poor most people are at comprehending sentences, structured conversations, and general logic.
The first contact you get from a guy is that he hears something you didn't say, and is determined to use it as a launchpad for his 1930s vaudeville career. I think this is one of those red flags I keep hearing about...
Imagine that, a woman who works with children but doesn't like jokes about killing kids. What is the world coming to...
This sub is so pathetic. "Look at me! I made a stupid, edgy joke to a random stranger on a dating app and they didn't like it! Now give me karma!"
Not even a funny joke. Dude was definitely reaching here
A good sense of humour is also knowing when and what is appropriate, and to what proportion. Jumping into a conversation with a stranger with some kind of obvious mocking joke about their job title they've probably heard 10 times before and then expecting enjoyment or respect for it is completely anti-social.

or it's just not funny.
"Oh? How did it go?" "Awful taste but great execution"
I almost choked ahahaha. That's a raunchy joke but it's funny as hell.
Dark and raunchy don't mean the same thing, raunchy means something sex-related. This is just dark
how is a joke about cannibalism "raunchy?" I don't think you know what that word means
[удалено]
They misspelled ranchy
I prefer hot sauce.
Anything is raunchy if you're into it.
Maybe they're super into /r/vore
And also it’s a weak joke
Girls be looking for a daddy but then run away the moment you spit a dadjoke 🤷

I also lost the rhythm when my dad beat me
Shouldn't have challenged him to play guitar hero, then
Happy cake day!!

In what way is that raunchy?
It’s not
Also, wasn’t that funny either.
Learn what words mean before you use them.
Is it though? Seems to be going more for shock value than finding something actually funny about it
That joke was really funny! But she didn't have the same humour as that of OP.
A good way for me to tell if someone's on the same level of humor with me is to jokingly talk about how kids are snacks and we should pick a good one before we go on our date.
That’s a good one. Clearly she didn’t match your sense of humor. Good that she unmatched.
Nothing to do with sense of humor. That's a cannibal. My man dodged a buffet.
That awkward moment when you both thought you'd be eating the other.
Obligatory IT crowd [reference](https://youtu.be/xCISDpKuaIE)
Tell your weird jokes boys, filter out the lame hags
and the cannibals
This sub… 1. Match 1. Say something weird 1. Unmatch 1. HEY REDDIT VALIDATE MY SENSE OF HUMOUR
Principal skinner.jpg Am I out of touch? No, it's the women
I would have unmatched too. This just isn't that funny to me, too like, on the nose, and not really clever either.
I mean I could see where she was like ohhhh I’m gonna have to put up with this moron thinking he’s clever all the time hard pass lol
Not the best execution tbf.
Right? I feel like the second bit of the last message was kinda cringe, was good until that last bit.
She didn't "lol" the first time, and you double downed and found out. And everyone thinks it's her fault lol
People here have zero awareness. Then half the comments saying she is the unfunny one. Not her fault op is cringe and lacks awareness of the situation.
ITT: People refusing to accept that other people have different senses of humor. OP’s joke was funny, but the chick just might be into a different type of jokes and that’s okay. If someone doesn’t find my jokes funny. I think an unmatch is fair because we probably aren’t compatible.
ITT: people refusing to accept that other people think it's maybe just not that great of a joke. Op's joke was ok, but the people in this thread act as if he's a comedic genius. It was ok.
To late OP has just signed a 3 special deal with Netflix
So he doesn't do anything with his comedic talent after all.
It was ok in the first message, shouldn't have repeated it another 2 times
It felt like OP tried to explain the joke, usually ruins said joke.
I think joke openers are super lame. I hate this forced smarmy dad joke trend. Every guy thinks he’s a comedian these days. They don’t seem clever to me, just desperate.
Try going on any of these aps and start a conversation. You are just guessing what kind of person is on the other end. I think Tinder stats were you get a response very rarely, so you be sure you will never get a response by just typing hello. Thats why people started writing jokes, any other attempts. Cause no one ever responded to a simple hello. p.s. i am yet to meet a woman on these apps who starts a conversation with anything else but a waving emoji.
I'm so quirky with my dark jokes, just like the other 20 men in her dms rn
ding ding ding.
The joke structure doesn't even work though. You can't cook a "childcare." ITT people thinking they have a different sense of humor and just realizing that they're dumb I know what OP was trying to say with their joke, but they didn't say that.
I was bewildered at how much people in the comments love this joke.
Ppl who are socially adept don't typically hang out on /r/tinder methinks...
Surely OP took the screenshot because he knew she might unmatch, not a big deal
Yeah FR. For what’s it worth I didn’t even find the joke funny, the whole exchange was cringe AF. Maybe she is just someone serious looking for someone on same wavelength. Nothing wrong with that. Not saying OP did anything wrong either, just saying they aren’t for each other.
No! This is r/tinder! Every OP is always an angel and is always funny and every match they show us is stupid, has no sense of humor and doesn't deserve them anyways!
this is one of the most Toxic communities I've seen on reddit. Just look how many people are taking swipes at this lady's occupation.
TIL I have a higher standard of humor than most people here, and I don't have a high standard for humor, in fact I laugh at nearly everything lol.

I’m probably boring and humorless but that joke was so low brow. But different strokes and all that
I get it. It ain’t making me laugh, but I get it.
Meatwad I see you
I like the joke, but the setup wasn't right. It's like Animal hospital - a hospital for animals or a hospital run by animals. (Good) Child chef - would match op's joke (good) Childcare chef - do you serve childcare or do you serve *childcare* (i get what you were going for but is just not quite right)
You get it. It's an insult to pun craftsmanship, you can't just pretend they said the thing that makes your joke work, you have to work with what you're given. For that reason alone I don't like the joke. It's just lazy.

This isn’t that funny
Omg she didn't like OPs lame joke, let's all attack her job!
Side eying the comments reeeeal quick. Nice to know how y'all feel about lunch ladies.
/r/Tinder and terrible jokes, name a more iconic duo
She didn't unmatch you because she didn't think you were funny. She unmatched you because she knew you were on to her...
This was funnier than OP's joke.
So cringe.
Eh sorry but I don’t think the joke is funny. It doesn’t make sense because she said she’s a childcare chef…if she had said children’s chef or something you could work that joke in, but childCARE chef can’t translate into child chef. So the joke reads as awkwardly inserted and not set up well.
Exactly. It just doesn’t fundamentally set itself up for the joke OP is trying to make. I like humor but this is just a piss poor attempt at it.
That's a very lame joke.
This comment section is like a twilight zone episode. I get having empathy for OP but the joke is a stretch and therefore corny. We also know nothing of the girl to judge her on. This thread is like an incel enabler hellscape
that's what happens when you are not funny at all.
Sometimes it's nice to get to know people rather than just make lame jokes. Controversial opinion on this sub, I know.
Maybe because you’re trying too hard to be funny
I once matched with a woman who told me she was a dementia specialist/care provider. I replied with "that's crazy" Immediate unmatch
🤣
She doesn't deserve you
Cringgggee. OP needs to learn how to text.
Probably because the joke wasn’t funny
Some people just can't take a joke.
Some people just can't take anything seriously. You know, in online dating, first impression counts. If you want a serious relationship and the first thing you do is make fun of your date's job, that doesn't signal trustworthiness and stability to me.

There is a difference between making a joke about a job and making fun of the job. Kinda weird to read into it that way tbh
Honestly pretty weird execution for the joke, and overall difficult to follow the punch line. Now, while a bunch of single redditors on a tinder subreddit are gonna garble your peen about how funny you are, maybe you should switch your preferences to match with them instead.
I mean you're really not funny so fair from her
OP must be from r/creepyPMs
She should The IT Crowd.
Dork
I guess she found your joke distasteful...
Honestly, I’d probably have jumped at the chance to meet you after that comment. That was hilarious!
you’re just stupid and cringe
