Slushy is the rather affectionate term for kitchen hand! You start in the kitchen at 8am and leave again about 7.30pm. You have tasks like "cleaning the fat frier" and "restocking jam/sauce shelves" depending on the day in question. In addition you wash any pot the chef creates (and sometimes it feels like they appear from thin air at a rapid rate) and assist the chef as required.

In winter the chef has a day off on sunday and so there are 2 slushy's - one as chef and the other as slushy! You also do four days of slushy on the trot. As a bonus you get to choose the music that everyone listens to all day.

 

There is a dishwasher for the general dishes from mealtimes but they still have to find their way back onto the shelves. There are usually a few helpers at the end of meals.

Baywatch is named after an old tradition of them having to keep nightwatch (thankfully we no longer do this). Instead baywatch has a series of duties which in winter only take you upto smoko (morning break) but in summer when you've finished these you then become an additional slushy. The duties involve cleaning the general use areas - which can be quite a disaster zone after movie nights, the toilets and ensuring kitchen is ready for the 8am breakfast.
