Chef Andre Rush

it's not um learning by seeing by by seeing is learning by doing right so you got to have hands-on where somebody's actually an instructor so looking at a book it's just like it didn't make any sense so i had to wait every year to go to a show to practice so every time i went to compete i would compete in like 20 events when a normal person would compete in three or two or one i would do 20 just so i could fail in all 20.

just with the experience, just so I can get that time and tension so I can just feel the grind of it. And people, they, you know, they're sort of like, Chef, he said, you know, you know, you're going to you know, you're not going to do it, you know. And I had no mentors on that part to find out how to do it because I was doing things I never knew about. And long story short was

I used to have to psych myself out, and I would tell everybody that I competed against, I'd say, you ready to lose? And they'd look at me like, kid, what are you talking about? And when I did lose, I had a loss. I would say to them, I told you you were going to lose. And they'd look at me like, he's crazy. And I'm like, what? they didn't lose, I won. I also won. I got that experience.

And from then I kind of turned into my own. And I'll be honest with you, I was in combat arms, so they didn't appreciate that part of the world. They'll take the accolades for it, but once it was back to the field, Get rid of it. Back to the field, back to the field. And someone but I was always a helper.

So I used to help people when I learned to do stuff and people found out I started doing things on my own and I taught I was self-taught in the beginning. And someone saw me and asked me if I want to come over to the trial for the culinary at the Pentagon in DC. And I'm like, for what? What is over in culinary with Pentagon? What is that about? Like, you want me to be a special agent or something?

I'm like, no, no, we want you to come over. And I'm like, what is this? And I said, why not? And I went and I tried. Long story short was that I had four days and it was three other people competing for the same position, but they were there for 30 days. I had four, they had 30. And I did it and I worked my butt off, went back to Fort Campbell and I was like, oh, that's that. I forgot about it.

It wasn't a big deal. How could I compete against three people that's there for 30 days? And long story short was about a month or so later, they called me back up and said, hey, you ready to come? And I remember this because my commander was really upset. He didn't want me to leave. And he said, forget about that part of the world. This is nothing. You need to be on here.
