"They don't respect me," he complained of the Ecuadorian line cooks. "Tell them! Tell them I can fire them if I want to." This was not what I was looking for in a sous-chef. If the cooks were giving him attitude, my telling them that the guy could fire them was not going to make them respect him.

That's from Kitchen Confidential. It's an absolutely wonderful book. I don't know how well Bourdain cooks, but the boy can write.
Wally,
Correct you are. I got a copy for Christmas and have been enjoying it.
