Professional chefs have sous chefs to do all the hard work and to see that meals get to the table in a timely manner. While I wouldn’t characterize myself as a chef, I do have a home kitchen assistant, and quite frankly I just don’t know what I'd do without her.
Three or four mornings a week, I hastily give her my plans for dinner and head to the office. She oversees the meal, does all the hard work while I’m gone and without fail has that meal ready to go when it’s time for dinner. Even better, she never complains and costs me less than 2 cents an hour.
